The P315 packaged driver is a state-of-the-art microstep drive with the translating and power stages needed to control virtually any hybrid step motor. By combining the ultra efficient MOSFET amplifiers, versatile H-bridge technology, and microprocessor controlled logic, the P315 provides outstanding speed/torque performance.
The P315X Indexer section automatically generates precise ramping routines; interfaces to your environment through the use of RS-232 communications, limit inputs, and programmable I/O; and for applications utilizing encoder capabilities, position maintenance and stall detection are available. Best of all, API's Intelli-Command Language (ICL) indexer software was designed for use by individuals without computer programming experience. Through the use of plain English type commands, your motion application will be up and running quickly, providing you with dividends long before other motion control systems.
The American Precision Industries P315-H Drive may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Artisan saved us headaches and money by helping us find a replacement Tektronix VXI module. Finding quality replacement parts is difficult and I'm glad they had what I needed.
- Matt R. Google
I found that the staff is very knowledgeable. I would recommend them to anyone looking for this type of equipment!
- Albert P.
I just want to thank you and the staff at Artisan for your prompt dispatch of the 34401A main board. I got it a couple of hrs. ago, removed the old board, installed the new and the result is as shown in the attachment. It not only works, but is calibrated to the last digit! I am very pleased and will definitely recommend your firm to my friends and colleagues. I really appreciate doing business with a firm that values service.
