1.1 - INTRODUCTION
XtrapulsPac
all-digital drives with sinusoidal PWM control are servo drives that provide the control of brushless
AC motors with a position sensor.
The standard control interface can be:
-
CANopen®
1
,
-
EtherCAT®
2
,
-
analog,
-
stepper motor emulation,
-
logic I/Os.
But the
XtrapulsPac
range also offers more sophisticated functions such as:
- DS402 including position capture,
-
Master/slave and electronic gearing functions,
-
Positioner with motion sequencing.
All versions are delivered in standard with the integrated safety function
Safe Torque Off
(
STO) SIL 2
.
With its very small dimensions, the
XtrapulsPac
is available in various designs:
-
stand-alone or multi-axis version,
-
standard forced air, push-through or cold plate cooling versions.
Series
XtrapulsPac
drives are fully configurable in order to fit various applications. Both drive versions of the
XtrapulsPac
range are described below.
The
XtrapulsPac
version with
CANopen® interface
can be used in the following application types:
Axes controlled by CANopen® fieldbus according to the DS402 protocol,
Stand-alone operation as a motion sequencer with control by means of logic I/Os,
Traditional analog speed drive with +/- 10 V command and position output by A, B, Z encoder signal
emulation,
Stepper motor emulation with PULSE and DIR command signals.
The
XtrapulsPac
version with
EtherCAT® interface
can be used in the following application types:
Axes controlled by EtherCAT® fieldbus according to the DS402 protocol,
Stand-alone operation as a motion sequencer with control by means of logic I/Os.
The configuration and parameterization software tool
Gem Drive Studio
allows a quick configuration of the
XtrapulsPac
drives according to the target application (template).
