A new range of servo drives is ideal for multi-axis applications such as pick-and-place machines, robots, packaging and feeding.
Lenze has a new range of servo drives for multi-axis applications such as pick-and-place machines, robots, packaging and feeding.
Called the ECS servo system, these new drives are designed to work in conjunction with external motion controllers.
They give a high dynamic performance with reduced dimensions and lower costs.
The ECS servo system is available with six axis modules with ratings from 2 to 20A.
High dynamic performance is available from peak current ratings that extend to 64A.
Three power-supply modules rated at 12, 20 and 40A can serve up to six axis modules.
This minimises initial costs and panel space.
There is a further option to minimise panel space - push-through mounting positioning the heatsinks of the modules outside the panel with IP65 sealing.
The panel can be smaller and requires less cooling.
Other standard features of the ECS servo are resolver or encoder feedback, and twin CANbus connections for high-speed data transfer.
All cable connections are made by plugs for fast installation and easy maintenance.
An optional safety stop function isolates the output circuit when a 24V signal is received from the controlling PC.
The new Lenze ECS servo system is matched by Lenze synchronous motors, but can also be combined with asynchronous models.
As an addition to the existing Lenze 9300 servo range, the ECS servo gives increased peak torques and smaller cabinet dimensions.
