M2 Series - Control Two Motors with One Drive
South Beloit, IL: Minarik Drives announces the release of the M2 drive. This new DC motor control can operate two different DC motors at the same time in either independent or speed ratio mode. It has the power of two drives in one!
In independent mode, each side of the M2 can be controlled differently with different trimmer pot settings and different speeds. Choose either speed or torque control. In speed ratio mode, one speed potentiometer sets the main speed while the other one determines the ratio of the speeds between the motors. In this mode, the drive replaces two single drives and possibly a separate master/follower card too, resulting in extreme cost and panel space savings.
The M2 drive is easy to set up with simple jumpers to choose modes: Speed/torque, independent/ratio and coast/decel to stop. The M2 drive is microprocessor based and can have settings or ranges of the on-board trimmer pots and other functions customized without any hardware changes.
The M2 drive is rated for a total of 1-1/8 horsepower at 115VAC and is ideal for applications with two DC motors that are working together, two motors that run independently but are physically close, or simply when panel space is very limited.
