Aerotech announces the availability of the BA
Intellidrive series of compact indexers. BA Intellidrives provide
low-cost control for many simple positioning applications. BAIs operate
in indexing and teach modes to drive brush and brushless servomotors. In
addition, BAIs have analog and RS-232 interfaces and will accept
standard clock and direction inputs for stepping system replacements.
The BA Intellidrive is capable of point-to-point
motion from a stored program initiated from an input. Acceleration,
deceleration, and velocity parameters are easily pre-defined for the
moves. A hand-held terminal or a PC can be used for setup and
programming.
Simple programs are stored in the BAI and executed in
a macro form. In addition, the BAI can accept commands via RS-232 for
immediate execution in the remote mode. Straightforward parameters make
it easy to configure and tune the BAI, with advanced error handling and
fault detection algorithms.
Another advantage of the BAI series is their compact
size. BAIs are available with continuous output currents from 5 to 50
amps and up to 100 amps peak. Bus voltages of 40 to 320 volts are
available to drive motors using the internal sine commutation scheme.
Units are completely modular and require no power supply.
Delivery is stock. |
