SGDXS EtherCAT

Highlights

• Industry-leading 3.5kHz bandwidth significantly improves settling time
• Tuning-less capability reliably tunes servo system automatically with load to rotor inertia mismatch up to 100:1
• Powerful package of tuning functions include compensation for the effects of machine vibration, friction, and other environmental factors
• Improved filtering minimizes inaccuracies due to electrical interference, machine resonance, and mechanical vibration
• Machine data collected by the amplifier can be used to implement preventative maintenance practices that will extend the life and performance of a machine
• IEC 61508 SIL3 safety certification
