Time to be responsive

When using a motion network, try to anticipate the kinds of signaling that will be required in your application. Does the behavior of the motion depend on the status of signals located on another part of the machine? Will you place sensors, and other non-motion controlled actuators, such as relays, on the network bus? How quickly does the motion have to shut down if an error occurs? Depending on the answers to these questions you may be able to place some of the systems on a motion network, none of them, or all of them. The answers to these questions will, at a minimum, influence the type of network you choose.

Motion Control Cards with Special PIEZO (Ceramic) Motor Functions

Motion Control Chips with special functions to compensate PIEZO Motor behaviour

Products Names:

  • POSYS® 1800-PIEZO Series 
  • POSYS® 1900-PIEZO Series

Description:

The POSYS® 1800-PIEZO and POSYS® 1900-PIEZO are motion control cards (PC-104, PCI-bus) for servo and stepper motors and provide one to four axes of motion. The functionality of these series has been significantly improved by using a special motion control chip with enhanced PIEZO (Ceramic) control functions. It is now possible to compensate the special behaviour of PIEZO (Ceramic) motors like for example stiction.
