Product information

The EC-Master Stack is designed and optimized to run on different embedded (real time) operating systems. The reliable and robust implementation is used by many companies worldwide like KUKA Roboter Control, Lenze, VIPA, Hischer and more.

Due to the usage of our own high performance Real-Time Ethernet drivers (link layers) very short network cycles are achiveable even on systems with limited CPU power.
