The Schneider Altivar 320 variable speed machine drive offers connectivity via Ethernet- or serial-based networks, motor control for synchronous and asynchronous motors, and embedded safety solutions for simple application requirements to comply with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
Also known as variable frequency drives, AC drives or variable speed drives, Rexroth intelligent frequency converters are scalable in performance and can be integrated into a range of automation environments; commissioning is done without external programming devices or a PC.
Covering a range of motion control applications, Yaskawa Sigma-7 rotary linear and direct drive servos and amplifiers offer 24-bit encoding and algorithms, such as ripple compensation, anti-resonance and friction model compensation, that correct machine imperfections.
Designed for fractional to 3hp drives, the Force Control Industries Posidyne size 1.5 clutch/brake has a multiple disc design that produces high torque and cycle rates up to 300 per min.
Capable of driving a range of rotary and linear motors, the Parker IPA 1.5-axis servo drive/controller comes with 400W and 1,500W power levels; it is suitable for HMI-, PC- and PLC-based applications.
Available with a stainless steel housing, Amacoil-Uhing Model RS drive nuts provide backlash-free linear motion in food processing machines; they run on a smooth shaft that eliminates the potential for trapping food particles and other debris.
