Multi-axis motor controller MP4U series

DCEtherCAT

The MP4U is an 8-axis modular EtherCAT drive module that enables the user to tailor the specific drive for each axis. Different drives can be selected for each pair of axes as well as the power supplies. Two types of drive module can be specified: The NanoPWM™ (NPM3U) drives for the highest performance of position jitter and following error demanding axes, and the more economical PWM (UDM3U) drives for the less demanding axis. Each module (two or one axis) can be specified for 3.3/10A (cont/peak) to 13.3/40A and can be connected to either 96Vdc or 48Vdc. The power supply is made of one or two plug-in modules, each fed by a single phase AC input and generating 48Vdc/32A output. The system can be ordered with one supply module providing 48Vdc/32A or two modules, connected either in parallel and providing 48Vdc/64A, or connected in series and thus providing 96Vdc/32A as well as 48V/32A. For each of the four drive modules it can be specified by which voltage it is fed (when both 48Vdc and 96Vdc voltages are available). Each drive is available with optional motor shortening relays, absolute encoder, as well as 500kHz SIN-COS encoder interfaces. The NanoPWM™ is also available with a 10MHz SIN-COS encoder interface for laser type encoders. STO is an option that is specified for either none or for all drives.
