AEROTECH Automation1 XR3 Multi-Axis Servo Drive Rack
Automation1 XR3 Multi-Axis Servo Drive Rack
The Automation1 XR3 is a high-performance, six-axis servo motor drive rack that provides precision motion to some of the highest performing automated processes in the world. The industry-leading positioning accuracy and repeatability of the XR3, coupled with its 3U 19” rack-mounted package size and convenient d-sub connectors, allow for simple integration. The XR3 also has configurable and field-replaceable front-mounted amplifier cards.
Design Features
Plug-in amplifiers with dedicated control cards drive brush, brushless, stepper, voice coil or piezo motors
Dedicated controller card for each amplifier
Up to 30 A peak current output
Includes PSO, the ultimate in position-based control for industrial lasers, cameras & more
Integrated power supplies
Features safe torque off (STO) functional safety (certification pending)
The XR3 motor circuits are driven by powerful controller cards that close the servo and current loops at 20 kHz. These cards also provide several other high-speed, low-latency control features to improve your process throughput and quality. The XR3 unit processes digital and analog I/O, high-speed data collection, high-speed differential outputs, position synchronized outputs and encoder multiplication functionality in real-time
