AMCI Unveils Stepper Motor Indexer/Driver
AMCI (Advanced Micro Controls) has introduced the 6A SD17060E stepper motor indexer/driver designed for Allen-Bradley's Ethernet IP industrial network.
This integrated stepper indexer/driver saves money and simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a separate controller in the PLC Microstepping, programmable current output, and anti-resonance circuitry are all standard features
To add stepper axes, users simply attach another SD17060E to their Ethernet IP network.
Besides connectivity to Allen Bradley's network, the AMCI SD17060E has many features that set it apart from conventional stepper motor drivers. Such features include anti-resonance circuitry that eliminates motor shaft jitter, unwanted vibration and stalling. It also uses vari-step velocity control, providing exceptional smoothness and performance, independent of the user's configured resolution.
Smoothness is guaranteed even at the lowest resolutions. Mechanically, a narrow and compact design saves space, while versatile mounting options allow for panel or side installation. Customers who want their stepper motor to follow an encoder will value the SD17060E's electronic gearing feature.
Electronic gear ratios are programmable, making it easy and affordable to reconfigure applications. Standard AMCI safeguards also remain, including an interlock connection to prevent injury if the motor connector is removed while the driver is powered. Additional safety measures include short-circuit protection - phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground - and over-temperature circuitry.
