Plug-in controllers come in compact size, boost performance

Automation / Robotics controllers motorNANOTEC CPB series small plug-in motor controllers are easy to integrate into existing applications and customer boards. Available in three sizes with rated power of 150, 300, and 750 watts, units have the same features and identical pin assignments on the logic connector. As a result, several performance classes of a customized carrier board or multi-axis board can be realized. In combination with extended features such as the acceleration feed-forward and jerk-limited ramps, the field-oriented torque, speed and position control provides optimum dynamic performance and thus cycle time. In addition to motor feedback via Hall sensors, incremental encoders or SSI encoders, it is also possible to integrate a second rotary encoder.
