Designation of the machine with the M EMC function
The designation EMC and/or EMC + W refers to the machines
AXIS-M 20.2 EMC (+ W) and/or AXIS-M 30.2/40.2 EMC (+ W).
The component designation "-M" (abbreviation for mechanical drive) does not
appear in the operator’s manual. This makes the machine designations, e.g. in
headlines, clearer.
