IC693MDL7346 Servo system determines the precision, control speed and stability of automation machinery, and is the core of industrial automation motion control. In recent years, with the rapid development of new energy, semiconductor equipment, electronic and electrical equipment and other industries, the application scenario of servo system is becoming more and more complex: compared with the traditional single motion control needs, the controller in some production lines not only needs to connect more than 8 servo axes at the same time, cooperate with many other devices using different communication protocols, and even achieve real-time monitoring of equipment status. In this context, how to achieve a more flexible and simplified connection mode in the servo system, a more efficient, stable and high-speed data transmission function of the communication mode, has become the focus of the industry.
Bus technology also supports the user’s pain points
Based on users’ real demands for multi-axis motion control and large-scale servo node connection, Schneider Electric’s Lexium 18E bus servo driver is based on the EtherCAT communication protocol, which is easy to integrate, flexible in topology and strong in network scalability. The EtherCAT bus can be used to connect the servo driver with the encoder, controller and other devices. It brings the advantages of simplified wiring, ecological coordination, flexible improvement, real-time diagnosis, etc., to meet the diversified on-site production needs of enterprises:
Simplified wiring: Support multiple servo systems and equipment in serieIC693MDL7346 s, simplify wiring operation, especially in the case of more servo connection nodes, can greatly save wiring and labor costs.
Ecological collaboration: “Seamless” access to the customer’s existing EtherCAT bus ecosystem enables rapid access to field equipment such as servo drives and inverters, sensors, weighing equipment and machine vision equipment for rapid production.
Flexible improvement: Support distributed control and multi-axis synchronous control, to achieve precise and collaborative motion control between multiple servo axes, suitable for complex mechanical systems in the production site, to help improve flexible production capacity.
Real-time diagnosis: Built-in advanced network chip, with high-speed data transmission, low latency response and other advantages, can achieve high-speed, real-time communication and coordination between EtherCAT devices. By monitoring equipment status and performance parameters in real time, operators can remotely diagnose and troubleshoot faults to ensure equipment and production safety.
In terms of servo motors, on the basis of the original 46 types of BCH18 optical knitting incremental servo motors, Schneider Electric has brought 8 types of BCH18 optical knitting incremental servo motors and 54 types of BCH18 optical knitting absolute servo motors, and then will successively launch more cost-effective and more compact BCH18M series servo motors. Provide users with a variety of choices. among
More compact: The BCH 18M series servo motor body length is more compact, comIC693MDL7346 pared with the BCH 18 series servo motor, the overall reduction of 10-20%, suitable for the servo motor size has strict requirements, or its own internal space limited production equipment, improve its space utilization.
More options: As a general purpose motor, the BCH 18M series servo motor covers two types of magnetic knitting and optical knitting, and its rated power range is 0.1-1.8kW, which will be gradually expanded to 3kW in 2024 to meet the actual production needs of users in different industries.
