Safe Brake Management is more than just Safe Control!

January 23, 2020

Created in partnership with safety experts Pilz, STOBER’s new, integrated system maximises the safety, efficiency and flexibility of your automated manufacturing plant. 

After a safety stop, getting your system up and running again can be a lengthy process. However, with the new SD6 drive controller and SE6 advanced safety module, when your system is restarted everything runs smoothly.

Design is easy, as you specify the motors, cables and encoders – and no special encoders or complicated formatting is required.

More importantly, there is no loss of performance through the use of safety technology.
