Advanced Control. Flexible Automation. Smarter Connectivity.

The Delta AX-5 Series Advanced IoT Controller is a high-performance PLC platform designed for production line equipment and sophisticated industrial automation applications. It provides a single development environment for controlling servo drives, AC motors, remote I/O modules and other motion devices, helping machine builders simplify system development and achieve reliable, coordinated machine control.

Supporting both PLCopen standard motion control instructions and Delta’s dedicated motion commands for servo drives and AC motors, the AX-5 Series provides a flexible platform for developing advanced motion applications.

Key Features

• Advanced PLC and IoT controller for industrial automation
• Simultaneous control of servo drives, AC motors, remote I/O and motion devices
• PLCopen standard motion control instructions
• Dedicated Delta motion commands for servo drives and AC motors
• Single development environment for PLC and motion control
• Ultra-thin 12 mm I/O modules to minimise control cabinet space
• Independent I/O power supply for simplified wiring
• Flexible I/O module expansion
• Built-in IoT functionality for connected equipment
• FTP support for convenient remote maintenance
• Type-C USB connectivity for on-site programming and debugging
• Designed to help reduce hardware, servicing and development costs
• One Platform for Advanced Machine Control

The AX-5 Series brings PLC and motion control together within a single development environment, allowing engineers to coordinate multiple devices from one control platform. This makes it easier to develop production equipment requiring precise control of servo systems, AC motors, remote I/O and other mechanical motion devices.

By combining standard PLCopen motion control instructions with Delta’s dedicated motion commands, the AX-5 provides the flexibility needed for a wide range of automated machinery.

Space-Saving Modular I/O

Designed with control cabinet efficiency in mind, the AX-5 Series uses 12 mm ultra-thin I/O modules to help minimise the overall footprint of the control system. The independent I/O power supply also simplifies wiring, helping to create a cleaner installation while supporting stable system operation.

The modular architecture provides flexible I/O expansion, allowing the controller to be configured to suit different machine and production line requirements.

Connected for Easier Maintenance

The AX-5 Series incorporates IoT functionality to support modern connected automation systems. FTP connectivity enables convenient remote maintenance, while Type-C USB provides straightforward on-site programming, commissioning and debugging.

These features can help equipment manufacturers reduce development time and minimise hardware and service costs by making system configuration and maintenance more efficient.

Built for Modern Industrial Automation

Combining advanced PLC functionality, integrated motion control, modular I/O and IoT connectivity, the Delta AX-5 Series provides a flexible control platform for today’s automated production environments.

With its space-saving design and streamlined development approach, the AX-5 helps machine builders create more compact, connected and efficient automation systems while reducing development and servicing requirements.
