CAN bus is a great interface for communicating between sensors & motor controllers in a high noise environment.
CANOpen is huge and can easily get cumbersome. I wrote embedded software for it in my previous company that builds robotic systems. Its far easier to work on a subset that implements what you need than trying to fully write it.
One of the reasons we switched to CANOpen is to overcome burdens caused by implementing our own CAN protocol, which used the extended format identifier to fit in destination/source, message & frame format information. As the number of nodes & messages increased it became impossible to fit it all in.
I found this book to be really informative: https://www.amazon.com/Embedded-Networking-CANopen-Olaf-Pfeiffer/dp/0692740872/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1482785515&sr=8-1&keywords=canopen
