Outstanding dynamic performance, integral EMC filtering, and the ability to connect to virtually any fieldbus system are among the benefits of the new range of servo drives from Hayes Control Systems
Outstanding dynamic performance, integral EMC filtering, and the ability to connect easily to virtually any fieldbus system are among the key benefits offered by the new range of servo drives from Hayes Control Systems.
Manufactured in Germany by Beckhoff, the range includes compact digital servo amplifiers with outputs up to 20A, which are complemented by three-phase synchronous servo motors with torque ratings up to 32Nm.
Servo amplifiers from Hayes Control Systems are fully programmable via an RS232 interface, and provide full control over motor speed, torque and position.
All models are designed around a 32-bit microprocessor, and feature an integrated encoder interface.
Other features which provide added versatility and convenience include analogue monitor inputs, digital inputs and outputs, and ramp functions.
The amplifiers are supplied with integral EMC filters which ensure easy, problem-free installation, even in sensitive environments, while the unique Beckhoff open fieldbus interface allows straightforward integration with most major fieldbus systems, including Profibus, SERCOS, and Beckhoff's own Lightbus fibre optic system.
The Beckhoff servo motors supplied by Hayes Control Systems are permanent magnet types which use neodymium magnetic material.
They feature low inertia, ensuring fast response times, and they have excellent overload characteristics.
The motors are fitted, as standard, with two-pole hollow-shaft resolvers, and a holding brake may be specified as an option.
The motors have an IP65 protection rating, allowing them to be used in even the most demanding industrial environments, and to ensure reliable operation under all operating conditions, they incorporate temperature sensors in the stator windings.
If, during operation, permitted temperatures are exceeded, the sensors report this information to the servo amplifier via the resolver cable, allowing appropriate remedial action to be taken.
Hayes Control Systems is the leading UK expert in the design and supply of complete automation solutions based on open-architecture PC technology.
The company is the exclusive UK distributor for Beckhoff in Germany, whose products include fieldbus-independent input/output systems, industrial PCs, and soft programmable controllers which use standard PC hardware, and which can also provide sophisticated motion control functions.
In all of its product areas, Hayes Control Systems champions an open-systems approach which avoids the technical limitations, high costs and restricted availability associated with proprietary equipment.
