Many Digital servo drives can be configured for simple motion moves via their internal logic. Automation Direct and Teco servo drives can do that.   You can trigger the motion with digital I/O.   The motion is basic but that may be all you need.

Hi all
I have to put together a system that will use one servo to drive a small platform over a distance of 6m at a speed of about 25km/h or 8m/s or there about.

I feel that using a full computer and mesa card for just one axis that does not need a display sounds a bit excessive. The question is what are the other options if any.
