As a 5 kW supply module, the Ferrocontrol DARC V05-10-00-0N for Elumatec feeds the digital axis controllers of the Ferrocontrol DARC system; version without interpolation processor, connected via CNC fieldbus (DARC system bus). This version is parameterised for machines made by Elumatec. The module provides the DC link voltage for up to eight axis controllers and handles the higher-level communication of the system.
Function within the DARC system
The supply module is operated directly on the three-phase mains (3 × 400 V, 380 V −10 % to 415 V +10 %, 50/60 Hz) and generates the 560 V DC link voltage for the connected axis controllers without a power transformer. Via the CNC fieldbus (DARC system bus) it receives positioning commands from the higher-level control and coordinates the data exchange with the axis controllers over the system bus; the RS232 service interface is used for parameterisation, commissioning and simple axis positioning from a PC.
Further features
- Direct mains supply without transformer, integrated mains filter for EN 55011 group 1 class A
- DC link choke and connection for an external braking resistor
- Relay contact for ready signal (30 V / 1 A), opto-isolated control inputs
- 24 V DC electronics supply, protection class IP20, convection cooling
- Plain-text diagnostics and service replacement without readjustment, CE-compliant
Equipment
Hardware version 00: basic version without interpolation processor. In the basic version the higher-level control performs the path calculation; the module passes the setpoints on to the axis controllers.
