Tiny controller puts intelligence on axes
The IBL2403 intelligent minidrive is the first member of a new family of cost-effective and compact servo products based on Technosoft's latest MotionChip DSP control technology.
They are software configurable to drive brushless, step, DC or linear motors up to 640W (80V, 8A).
Also available are the IDM240 and IDS240 with power ratings up to 240W (48V, 5A).
Typical feedback devices include incremental, sin-cos, SSI, and EnDat encoders; resolver, digital or linear Hall sensors, or tacho.
Various motion modes, including contouring, profiling, gearing, electronic camming, PVT, in stand-alone or multi-axis operation can easily be programmed with Technosoft Motion Language (TML) in a graphical environment.
Libraries for C++, Delphi, Visual Basic or LabView and S7 PLC, complemented by starter kits, are available for easy integration in target applications.
The flexibility and versatility of the IDM640 and IDS640 make them an ideal cost-effective solution for distributed control over CAN (optionally CANopen), RS485 or classical RS232 networks.
