What Our Partners Say

We have been specifying DriveAxis PLCs in our panel assemblies for over eight years. The consistent Modbus TCP performance and fast documentation response have made them our primary supplier for water treatment SCADA projects.

David R. Chen Chief Electrical Engineer, Pacific Industrial Systems

When we expanded into the European market, we needed a VFD supplier who could provide CE-marked drives with complete documentation on day one. DriveAxis had every Declaration of Conformity and test report ready before we placed our first order.

Maria L. Hoffmann Procurement Director, EuroPower Distribution GmbH

After retrofitting our conveyor drives with DriveAxis VFDs and implementing the recommended V/f control settings, our quarterly energy bill dropped by 28%. The payback period was under 18 months.

Frequently Asked Questions

Technical and procurement questions answered by our engineering team.

Our DX9000 and DX7000 series PLCs natively support Modbus RTU/TCP, PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET IO, EtherNet/IP, and IEC 61850 MMS. Protocol gateways are available for legacy BACnet, DeviceNet, and CC-Link networks. All communication modules are hot-swappable for zero-downtime upgrades.

Standard VFDs (0.75kW – 90kW) are held in regional stock across our distribution hubs in Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia, with typical dispatch in 3-5 business days. Drives above 90kW and custom-configured units require 4-8 weeks depending on frame size and options specified.

Yes. Our entire automation product range is dual-certified: CE-marked per Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU and EMC Directive 2014/30/EU for European markets, and UL/cUL listed per UL 508A and UL 508C for North American installations. CCC certification covers the China market. Complete compliance documentation packages are available on request or downloadable from our technical library.

Absolutely. Our project engineering team has delivered over 6,000 custom automation packages worldwide. We accept your P&ID, single-line diagram, or functional specification as the starting point. Our engineers design the PLC I/O configuration, drive sizing, and control panel layout, then manufacture and FAT-test the complete system before shipment. Typical delivery is 8-12 weeks from design freeze.

All DriveAxis VFDs above 2.2kW include integrated Safe Torque Off (STO) to SIL 3 / PL e per IEC 61800-5-2, certified by TUV Rheinland. Our DXS safety drive series additionally supports SS1, SS2, SLS, SBC, and SOS safety functions, suitable for machine safety applications requiring Category 3 and Category 4 architectures per ISO 13849-1.
