Slimline servo drive cuts wiring costs
The Compax3M (C3M) servo drive integrates components such as mains filters and braking resistors into the drive system and helps reduce wiring.
Digital servos switch to fieldbus control
The Compax3 digital servo platform gains a new DeviceNet fieldbus option.
This means potential duties now encompass such applications as material forming, presses, printing and paper conversion, including those projects involving torque motors.
The extension of the Compax3 drive range helps to reinforce the standing of Parker as a one-stop supplier for automation systems.
Key features of the Compax3 drives are scaleable functionality and versatility of application regarding servo motor technologies.
Plus, being compatible with international fieldbus protocols (Ethernet, PowerLink, DeviceNet, CANopen, Profibus DP and RS232/RS485) they can be incorporated into most control system configurations.
Functionality ranges from simple basic analogue +/-10V torque/velocity, plus step-direction control up to intelligent drives with PLC functions.
Programming is via industry standard IEC61131-3 language, which simplifies integration into existing systems and minimises training.
As regards motor compatibility, the Compax3 can be used with a wide range of servomotors (synchronous, asynchronous, linear and torque motors).
It supports feedback from resolvers, encoders, single/multi-turn SinCos and incremental encoders with sine-cosine signals.
All the new higher power drives operate from three-phase 400/480V AC, so they are suitable for worldwide duties. Request a free brochure from Parker Hannifin - Electromechanical & Drives Sales ...
