Aerotech's U500 motion control and laser syncing (PSO) PC card are to be withdrawn due to difficulty in sourcing components. Customers are advised to contact Aerotech with respect to covering themselves for spares on U500 cards and DR drive racks.
Customer wishing to upgrade their U500s to the latest A3200 controller can take advantage of the NSERVO upgrade pricing, which allows existing drive amplifiers and cabling to be maintained. There may be some implications on PC hardware and software.
