Intelligent drive control requires fast communication with the higher-level systems.
By conveniently plugging in option cards, the desired fieldbus standard and a wide range of encoder interfaces are available with the E°Darc:
CANopen® or EtherCAT® as fieldbus variants and Hyperface, Resolver, EnDat and BiSS for the encoders.
The E°Darc is particularly suitable for multi-axis applications. The dimensions were chosen so that installation is also possible in control cabinets with a depth of only 300mm.
In principle, the maximum number of controllers on one supply is not limited
–the limit is determined solely by the performance of the supply.
The E°Darc does not need a backplane.
The controller and supply modules are hooked onto the top-hat rail and pushed together.
The DC link supply of the axis controllers is not via conventional busbars:
A pluggable DC link bus takes over this task.
There is no need for time-consuming wiring work for the power supply and the installation of covers.
Mains choke and braking resistor are already included in the supply module.
The continuous pluggable inputs and outputs in the upper and lower part of the housing help to further reduce the effort required to install the system.
