Compact Servo Indexer Offers Low-Cost Control for Simple Positioning Applications

Aerotech announces the availability of the BA Intellidrive series compact indexers. BA Intellidrives provide low-cost control for many simple positioning applications. BAIs operate in indexing and teach modes to drive brush and brushless servomotors. In addition, BAIs have analog and RS-232 interfaces and will accept standard clock and direction inputs for stepping system replacements.

The BA Intellidrive is capable of point-to-point motion from a stored program, initiated from an input or through remote mode. Acceleration and velocity parameters are easily pre-defined for the moves. Advanced features include integer-based math, index/freerun moves done using registers, velocity profiling, conditional gotos based on register content, homing, and more. A hand-held terminal or a PC can be used for setup and programming. A sophisticated Windows tuning, programming, and diagnostic utility also is available for the BAI.

Simple programs are stored in the BAI and executed in macro form. In addition, the BAI can accept commands via RS-232 for immediate execution in the remote mode. Straightforward parameters make it easy to configure and tune the BAI, with advanced error handling and fault detection algorithms.

Another advantage of the BAI series is compact size. BAIs are available with continuous output currents from 5 to 50 amps and up to 100 amps peak. Bus voltages of 40 to 320 volts are available to drive motors using the internal sine commutation scheme. Units are completely modular and require no power supply.
