Features
State of the Art
- High dynamic range torque control
- Wide range motor support, from DC, BLDC, AC and Linear, from 50 W to 1500 W
- Sophisticated dead-time distortion elimination
- Flexible feedback device port supporting incremental, serial and analog encoders and resolvers ¹
- Dual CPU architecture with dedicated open source ARM CPU for user functionality
- High functional density and cost efficiency: all features included in the standard model
- 3-level PWM output with reduced motor ripple current
Control
- Input setpoint signals including pulse and direction, quadrature, analog and PWM
- Multidrop & multiaxis capable real-time SimpleMotion V2 field bus for setup & control
- Internal axis homing function with sensorless hard-stop operating mode
Protections & Ruggedness
- 3-way Safe torque off with motor braking
- Prevent machine damage via I²t (motor temperature modeling), blocked motion and tracking error detection
- Industry leading ruggedness: over current, short circuit, over voltage, under voltage and over temperature protections, internally fused, data/communication error detection
- Internal AC inrush current limiter
