The PS 90 is a modular designed position control for maximal nine axes, divided in three groups, each with three axes. Because of this special feature, it is possible to operate respectively three 2-phase step motors or DC servo motors (professional brush and brushless). Each axis has two inputs for incremental encoder or position measuring system. Thus, very precise positioning in closed loop mode is possible for all drive systems. Step motors can be operated from full step up to 256 micro steps per full step. The PS 90 can be operated by a handheld terminal or a PC via the integrated USB interface. Point-to-point positioning mode with different velocity profi les as well as complex continuous-path control like circular interpolation or 3-axes linear interpolation are possible. Because of safety requirements, an external emergency stop button is pluggable.
The professional software tool OWISoft is also part of the delivery. Thus, the PS 90 can be configured and operated comfortably.
Please order the required drive modules directly with the base unit.

Twin Line positioning controllers are exceptionally adaptable single-axis positioning controllers with integrated power electronics. Controllers of the TLC x1x series are equipped with integrated stepping-motor power electronics, and devices of the TLC x3x series with integrated AC synchronous servomotor power electronics.
Depending on the module configuration, the positioning controllers can manage all sorts of positioning tasks, from the simplest point-to-point positioning to the electronic-gearing function.
The Twin Line positioning drives act as intelligent manufacturer of actuators in a typical automation system. The master control system has access to parameters, system factors and the positioning functionality of the drives via digital signal interface, serial communication or standard field-bus systems. |

Force Control Industries, Inc. entered into the controls business in 1994 when it became apparent that many of the clutch/brake positioning problems associated with the Posidyne® clutch/brake were actually related to the controls, and not the fault of the clutch/brake. Many systems were built around a PLC SUPPLIERS, and scan time caused variable delays in the signal timing causing positioning errors. As the speeds increased, response became more and more critical, and millisecond variables caused unacceptable positioning errors.
The Posidyne® clutch/brake was often picked in critical positioning applications because of it's stopping consistency, however there were still position errors. The cold start to hot run change was most prevalent, as it is in all clutch/brakes. Many times the stop position flag would have to be adjusted after r unning for awhile, and if the machine was shut down for awhile, it may have to be readjusted again.
Positioning errors could also be caused by changes in temperature, speed, actuation pressure, or many other variables.
Force Control Industries, Inc. built the first control by buying components and installing into a box. This solved the scan time problem, but still left the adjustment needed due to other variables. A commitment was made by management to take a clean sheet of paper, and design and build a control that would not only solve the scan time problem, but would continuously self adjust to compensate for all of the other variables that affect clutch/brake drives. |

These three modules are designed for use in setting up position control loops in conjunction with rotational or linear servo drives.
Up to 10 axes can be driven simultaneously using modules combined in a SYSTEM-90E. This includes the possibility of mixing various types of axes. Each axis can be traversed or positioned in any way desired, either individually or coordinated with other axes.
This exact position control is carried out by SYSTEM-90E; speed control is done by an additional external speed controller.
Either position control modules, motion control modules or even stepper motor manufacturers professional indexers can be used: the programming techniques are identical.
