General

The fully digital iMD40 drive controller is an economical final stage, powered directly from the mains, for EC servomotors (synchronous motors, such as linear or torque motors) up to 1 kW.

Typical applications are CNC machines and automation systems. The final stage casings are optimised for cabinet installation. The extensive configuration options allow flexible adaptation to a wide range of applications and all required settings can be made with a user-friendly commissioning software package.

There are various user interfaces available for integration with proprietary applications. Here, the CAN open interface must be emphasized. In addition to synchronous point-to-point positioning (S-PTP) and speed control, track control (CP -Continuous Path) and synchronised multiple axis applications are feasible using the implemented CANopen protocol DS402. Additional interfaces include a ±10V interface (nominal speed) and a RS232 interface. The iMD30 also has a clocking/direction interface.

Short controller cycle times (current, speed, position controller) ensure optimum performance for highly dynamic drives. The drive controllers are suitable both for rotary drives and for the corresponding linear direct drives and torque motors (iMD20 and iMD40). A redundant rest monitoring system has been integrated in the drive controller. It reduces work by the controller in external assemblies to a minimum and allows for convenient operation or use of the machine.
