Our PowerFlex® 527 AC Drives are the first AC
drives designed to work exclusively with our Logix Programmable Automation
Controllers (PACs). This allows the drive to leverage the capabilities of
the controller and use Studio 5000 Logix Designer™ to help simplify
machine development and use. This streamlined approach uses embedded
instructions that are shared by PowerFlex 527 AC drives and Kinetix®
servo drives, providing the same user experience for configuration,
programming, and control of both types of drives.
