− | VSD-E/XE drive is a versatile servo drive from Granite Devices. In favor of [[ARGON]] and [[IONI]] servo drives, VSD-E series became discontinued. Regardless of being discontinued in production, it is still being supported and repair & spare service is available. | + | |
− | | + | |
− | ==Applications==
| + | |
− | ===Motion control===
| + | |
− | * Robotics
| + | |
− | * CNC
| + | |
− | * Pick'n'place
| + | |
− | * Precise speed,torque or position control
| + | |
− | * Actuators
| + | |
− | * 3D printers
| + | |
− | ===Other uses===
| + | |
− | VSD-E series has been successfully used also in non-motion related applications mainly in torque mode (a.k.a. current control mode). In these applications a LC filter has been used after drive to smoothen out the [[PWM]] output.
| + | |
− | * High power LED driver with dimming (up to 160 VDC led strings)
| + | |
− | * High power [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_cooling thermoelectric cooling] driver
| + | |
− | ==Key features==
| + | |
− | ===Single axis a.k.a Evolution mode===
| + | |
− | [[File:Cascade position controller.png|thumb|500px|Simplified VSD drive block diagram in position [[control modes|control mode]]. ]]
| + | |
− | List of key features:
| + | |
− | *Easy setup via [[GDtool]] software
| + | |
− | *[[SimpleMotion library|SimpleMotion]] control library for PC, C/C++/C#, LabVIEW etc
| + | |
− | *Various low level command inputs ([[Pulse and direction|pulse/dir]], [[PWM]], [[quadrature]], [[Analog reference|±10V]])
| + | |
− | *Easy connection to fieldbuses like EtherCAT or CANopen (more info)
| + | |
− | *Most [[Motor types|AC/BLDC/DC and linear servo motors]] supported
| + | |
− | *Advanced sinusoidal field oriented control (FOC)
| + | |
− | *True current control protects equipment and boosts responsiveness
| + | |
− | *Reliability guaranteed by wide safety margins and quality components
| + | |
− | *Electrical & mechanical braking of motor in faults & disable
| + | |
− | *Fully automatic internal homing controller
| + | |
− | *Optimized for CNC and machine automation
| + | |
− | *Robust 200V 60A MOSFET power stage
| + | |
− | *Panel installation, 19" rack compatible.
| + | |
− | *Regenerative brake resistor output
| + | |
− | *Hard to kill: short circuit, over current, over temperature, [[I²t protection|I²t]], over voltage and under voltage protections
| + | |
− | *Advanced positioning with acceleration limit and smoothing

− | | + | |
− | ===DualDC mode===
| + | |
− | A special feature of VSD-E/XE is that it can control two independent brush DC servo motors on single drive. This mode is achieved by downloading a freely available DualDC firmware to the drive. DualDC mode has several restrictions compared to single axis mode due to hardware limitations.

− | ==Purchasing==
| + | |
− | ===Before purchase===
| + | |
− | Before purchasing the drive, it is suggested to:
| + | |
− | * Ensure product suitability for your needs:
| + | |
− | ** See [http://granitedevices.fi/assets/files/vsd-e_160_manual.pdf VSD-E/XE PDF manual chapter 13] for supported motor and feedback device types
| + | |
− | ** Check if a compatible [[setpoint signal]] is available from your [[Controller|controller]]
| + | |
− | ** Read through the drive manual to understand the product and requirements better
| + | |
− | * Make clear what additional items will be needed, such as power supplies and possibly interface electronics
| + | |
− | * If unsure about suitability, please send inquiry to [[Granite Devices support]] to be sure
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | ===How to purchase===
| + | |
− | VSD series is discontinued and not available anymore. Large quantities can be negotiated separately.
