Integrated Multi-Axis Control System (IMACS) delivers leading-edge performance, unparalleled control and the ultimate in flexible data acquisition. For servo-controlled testing machines, the IMACS provides excellent waveform fidelity from integrated acquisition and control functions, at speeds of up to 5kHz simultaneously on all channels.
