Digital Servo Drives provide precision motion control.

Press Release Summary:



RS232/485 digital drives work with brushed or brushless, rotary or linear servomotors. Its 20 kHz digital current loop uses Space Vector Modulation switching resulting in higher current loop bandwidth and lower heat dissipation. Sinusoidal, encoder based, commutation of brushless motors results in low torque or force ripple, making them suitable for high-precision motion control applications. Various models available with supply range of 80 VDC to 460 VAC.

Digital Servo Drives For High Bandwidth Precision Motion Control Applications



Camarillo, California...Advanced Motion Controls announces the availability of its RS232/485 digital drives. These fully digital drives are designed for use with brushed or brushless, rotary or linear servomotors. The 20kHz digital current loop utilizes Space Vector Modulation (SVM) switching techniques that result in higher current loop bandwidth. This switching technique also provides lower heat dissipation. The sinusoidal, encoder based, commutation of brushless motors results in the lowest possible torque or force ripple, making these drives ideal for the following high-precision motion control applications: coordinated measuring and inspecting machines, steering mechanisms for flight and ground vehicle simulators and high speed wire bonding machines utilizing linear motors. Drive configuration and tuning can be accomplished through a graphical and intuitive Windows based utility using the serial RS232/485 communication port. The various digital and analog inputs and outputs can be assigned user-selectable functions. Extensive drive protection and error handling are also fully configurable. Various models are available with supply range of 80VDC to 460VAC, and maximum current output capability in the range of 15A to 100A. Units with AC supply also incorporate a shunt regulator circuit with configurable turn on voltage.
