MPN #: AZD-KEP
Imagine a factory line that stops every time a motor driver misbehaves. That lost time costs money and frustrates operators. The Oriental Motor AZD-KEP is a compact driver that talks to your Ethernet/IP network and keeps your motors running smoothly. It solves the common problem of unreliable motor control in harsh industrial environments, giving you steady performance and easy integration.
Many plants struggle with drivers that cannot speak the same language as their PLCs. When the driver cannot exchange data quickly, motion errors appear and downtime rises. This driver solves that issue by offering native EtherNet/IP communication, so your PLC can command the motor directly over a standard network. The result is faster setup, fewer wiring errors, and reliable power handling at 24 or 48 VDC.
The AZD-KEP fits into conveyor belts that need precise speed control, packaging machines that require quick start-stop cycles, and robotic arms that depend on accurate pulse feedback. It also works well in HVAC systems where fans must adjust speed based on sensor input. Anywhere you need a motor driver that can be managed over Ethernet, this unit is a solid choice.

We are retiring PICOPC Products MNHO-073, MNHO-048 and MNHO-043 and they have reached EOL (End Of Life) as we are introducing new products with better technology. We would recommend you to look into MNHO-095. For Untangle, pfSense, OPNsense, Windows 11, Proxmox VE etc. we recommend MNHO-095 whereas for Sophos, Kerio Control and Endian, we would recommend MNHO-069. (A complete list of supported OS can be found in each product's listing)
