Stellar X | Software-Defined Motion Controller

Why Keep Reinventing Motion Controllers?

Existing motion controllers are technically outdated,
cost-inefficient, and fundamentally misaligned with the
industry’s shift toward AI-driven, standardized robotics.

Fragmented Communication

Each manufacturer uses its own protocol. Lack of standardization forces costly redevelopment when systems change.

Rigid Architecture

PLC-based control systems are hardware-defined and closed. They cannot adapt to software-driven or AI-integrated systems.

Inefficient Tools

Conventional motion software is too complex. High learning curves and limited automation reduce development efficiency.

Introducing Stellar X: The Software-Defined Motion Controller.

Define any robot structure, connect any EtherCAT drives or modules, and unify your entire robotics workflow—from kinematics to motion planning to deployment—under a single, universal controller. Stellar X eliminates protocol fragmentation, removes PLC-level rigidity, and turns robot development into a fast, standardized, and fully software-defined process.

Compact by Design

A footprint designed to fit effortlessly into your control cabinet—or on your desk during development and education.

Premium Materials & Finish

Machined aluminum with a matte anodized finish delivers durability, heat stability, and a premium feel—without adding unnecessary bulk.

Minimal I/O, Maximum Focus

Stellar X is intentionally minimal. No legacy I/O blocks, no unnecessary interfaces—just what motion control truly requires.

Engineered for Motion

A performance-optimized architecture designed specifically for real-time EtherCAT motion control—proving that small hardware can still deliver industrial-grade capability.

Develop in Days, Not Months: The Integrated Stellar X Toolchain

The Stellar X platform is defined by powerful software tools, not just hardware. It's a complete, integrated web-based environment designed to cut your development cycles and maximize code reusability.

Software-Defined Control: Define Any Structure.

The true power lies in the software. You can define any robot type, from 1-axis to 7-axis serial arms, without changing the core controller hardware. The single controller handles all complexity.

Advanced Features: Built-in Collision and Teaching.

Advanced features like collision detection and direct teaching are provided as standard, zero-cost capabilities, saving your R&D team hundreds of hours of complex development.

Commissioning & Maintenance: Mobile Optimized.

Forget heavy, cumbersome teaching pendants. Control your robot and save poses one-handed from any device using our mobile-optimized interface.

Zero-Risk Development: Virtual Prototyping

Verify and thoroughly test 100% of your control logic in a virtual environment before deploying it on a real robot.

Seamless Collaboration: Digital Asset Sharing

Save robot tool settings, poses, and movements as digital assets and easily share them with developers within your team or with SI firms, accelerating integration.

Performance & Architecture: The Future of Control

Our Software-Defined Robotics (SDR) foundation provides the performance and openness required for tomorrow's complex robotic applications.

Stellar X is built on a Software-Defined Robotics (SDR) architecture that transcends the limitations of hardware-locked PLC logic. This allows true protocol flexibility and the seamless integration of any robot type without system redevelopment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which robot types does Stellar X support?

Our Stellar X controller currently supports articulated (serial) robots only. Support for Delta, parallel, or specialized-type robots is under review for future releases.

Can Stellar X support systems requiring more than 7 axes?

The current system supports up to 7 axes per robot. Multi-controller synchronization for higher-axis systems is on our roadmap for future releases.

Does Stellar X support other fieldbus protocols besides EtherCAT?

At present, Stellar X is available in an EtherCAT-only version. A CAN-based model is planned for release in a near future update.

Is a collision-detection algorithm included, and does it support all kinematics?

Yes. Our built-in collision-detection algorithm works regardless of robot type or number of axes, including Cartesian configurations.

What is the learning curve for adopting SDR and the Stellar X platform?

If your team has a basic understanding of robotics principles, adopting SDR will be straightforward and efficient, thanks to our intuitive web-based tools. For detailed technical guidance or onboarding support, please contact us directly.

What is the pricing policy for volume production (OEM)?
