Copley Controls Nano Excessive Energy digital servo drive for brush and brushless motors. | Credit score: Copley Controls
Copley Controls has launched its Nano Excessive Energy (Nano HP) and Nano Plus Excessive Energy (Plus-HP) digital servo drives for brush and brushless motors.
Each sequence broaden Copley’s compact Nano household and have redesigned energy boards for increased present output, making them ideally suited for traction motor purposes in autonomous cellular robots (AMR), automated guided automobiles (AGV), and different space-limited cellular robotics requiring higher-power embedded modules.
The Nano HP is predicated on Copley’s Nano Customary platform with ARM processor, whereas the Nano Plus-HP is constructed on the superior Nano Plus platform with FPGA-based structure for enhanced functionalities. Each drives function from 9 to 90 Vdc enter voltage and ship as much as 140 A of steady present, offering distinctive energy density and effectivity. Additionally they assist EtherCAT (CoE) and CANopen communication protocols for real-time information trade, with the Plus-HP supporting extra networking protocol choices.
Extra options and specs embody:
- Secure Torque Off (STO) functionality with SIL 3, Class 3, PL e conformance
- One analog enter: ±10 V, 12-bit (HP) / 16-bit (Plus-HP)
- 16-kHz present loop replace
- 4-kHz place and velocity loop replace
- 5 high-speed digital inputs
- 4 high-speed digital outputs, together with brake
- A number of encoder interfaces — incremental, absolute, twin suggestions and digital halls
- 32-bit floating level filters and a number of superior filters
- Frequency evaluation instruments
Copley Controls mentioned the Nano HP and Plus-HP drives are designed to fulfill the necessities of many cellular robotics purposes, AGVs, AMRs and subject robotics. Customary modules might be carried out utilizing connectors or by soldering energy pins for top load present purposes, whereas the Z-style modules’ small kind issue facilitates integration with commonplace connectors and a frame-mounted warmth plate.
Movement management and different enabling applied sciences can be on the agenda at RoboBusiness on Oct. 15-16 in Santa Clara, Calif. It’s the premier occasion for builders and suppliers of business robots. The occasion is produced by WTWH Media, which additionally produces The Robotic Report, Automated Warehouse, and the Robotics Summit & Expo.
This 12 months’s convention can even characteristic greater than 60 audio system, a startup workshop, the annual Pitchfire competitors, and quite a few networking alternatives. Over 100 exhibitors on the present ground will showcase their newest enabling applied sciences, merchandise, and providers to assist remedy your robotics growth challenges.
RoboBusiness can be co-located with DeviceTalks West, the premier trade occasion for medical expertise professionals. Each occasions appeal to engineering and enterprise professionals from a broad vary of healthcare and medical expertise backgrounds.
Registration is now open for RoboBusiness 2025.
