PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
BECKHOFF EL2596-0010 - 2-Channel Stepper Motor EtherCAT Terminal
This EtherCAT Terminal provides two independent channels for controlling stepper motors in industrial automation applications. It integrates directly into the EtherCAT network, offering precise position, velocity, and acceleration control via a compact, DIN rail-mountable form factor. Designed for systems requiring accurate open-loop motion, it supports microstepping for smooth operation and reduced resonance.
