Product overviewThe NanoPLUS (NEP/NPP) series is Copley’s smallest servo drive solution, designed for direct motor mounting or integration within robotic joints. These compact drives deliver professional performance for robotics, AGV systems, industrial machinery, medical devices and aerospace. They support DC brushed, brushless and linear motors and provide multiple communication options including CANopen, EtherCAT, Ethernet/IP and Modbus-TCP. Safe Torque Off is supported. Flexible mounting includes industry-standard connectors (-Z option) and direct soldering for high-current applications. A development kit (-D option) is available for rapid prototyping.
