Universal Motor Drives Quick Overview

ElectroCraft's CompletePower^™ Plus Universal Drive takes performance, efficiency and flexibility to the next level, utilizing state-of-the-art digital drive technology combined with an intuitive and highly configurable user interface. Perfect for a wide range of industrial, commercial market, and consumer product applications. There are four standard capacities in the model lineup, plus customized versions are offered to meet large volume OEM requirements.

• Compatible with Brushless DC motors, PMDC Brush motors, and Stepper motors (Open-Loop and Closed-Loop) from 12 to 80 VDC and up to 24A continuous/60A peak output current.
• Modes of operation include analog speed control, analog torque control or step & direction positioning for Brushless, PMDC Brush and Closed-Loop Steppers.
• Sine-wave commutation for brushless motors using either hall sensors or encoder feedback.
• Advanced Field Oriented Control (FOC) of Brushless and Closed-Loop Stepper motors provides high dynamic response resulting in a robust motor controller with low torque ripple that produces smoother, more efficient motion!
• Open-loop stepper motors support single step up to 256 micro-steps (1MHz max step rate @50% ± 10% duty-cycle).
• Encoder feedback or IxR compensation is available for PMDC Brush motors.
• Easy setup and configuration via USB interface with ElectroCraft Complete Architect^™ - Windows-based software.
  • Easy to configure and tune ElectroCraft motors by simply selecting the standard motor model from the included database!
  • Built-in Tutorials help users get started without having to read a manual.
  • Help Function provides easy to understand explanations for parameter settings.
  • Extensive diagnostic and monitoring tools significantly reduce the time involved in setup, tuning and troubleshooting.

ElectroCraft's PRO Series takes drive performance and functionality to the next level by incorporating a fully programmable motion controller with built-in networking! Whether you are controlling a single drive in a stand-alone application or multiple drives in a networked system, configuration and programming is easy using ElectroCraft's intuitive and powerful MotionPRO Suite software.

PRO Series Features:

• Compatible with Brushless, Brush, or Stepper motors
• PCB mount or stand-alone chassis configurations
• Voltage range from 12 to 80 VDC
• Output current up to 20A continuous, 40A peak
• Built-in I/O, hall sensor, tach & encoder feedback
• RS232, CAN bus or EtherCAT^® (CoE) networks

Operating Modes:

• As a single-axis motion controller, autonomously running the program residing in its non-volatile memory.
• As an intelligent slave executing motion sequences triggered by input lines.
• As part of a multi-axis, distributed motion control solution in either stand alone or slave configurations.
• As an intelligent slave executing motion sequences triggered by commands received via RS-232, EtherCAT or CAN bus communication.
