Drive regulator iMD 10

The fully digital iMD 10 drive controller is an economical final stage, powered directly from the mains, for DC servomotors.

Typical applications are CNC machines and automation systems. The final stage casings are optimised for cabinet installation.The extensive configuration options allow flexible adaptation to a wide range of applications and all required settingscan be made with a user-friendly commissioning software package. There are various user interfaces available for integration with proprietary applications. Here, the CAN open interface must beemphasized. In addition to synchronous point-to-point positioning (S-PTP) and speed control, track control (CP -Continuous Path) and synchronised multiple axis applications are feasible using the implemented CANopen protocol DS402. Additional interfacesinclude a ±10V interface (nominal speed) and a RS232 interface.

Fast inputs for 3D measuring devices as well as the handwheeloperation are implemented.Short controller cycle times (current, speed, position controller) ensure optimum performance for highly dynamic drives. The drivecontrollers are suitable both for rotary drives and for the corresponding linear direct drives and torque motors.

A redundant rest monitoring system has been integrated in the drive controller. It reduces work by the controller in external assem-blies to a minimum and allows for convenient operation or use of the machine. The drive modules iMD series including the predecessor UVE 8012 are still sold over 25,000 times worldwide.
