Automation1 XC6e Servo Motor Drive
The Automation1 XC6e single-axis PWM servo motor drive brings precision motion control to your high-power applications. It offers all the benefits of our XC4e drive but with more power to move the largest payloads, so you’ll accelerate large, brushless servo motors faster and reach higher top speeds without sacrificing smooth motion. Plus, the XC6e can be configured and programmed with Automation1’s user-friendly Studio application and APIs. Compatible with brush, brushless, voice coil or stepper motors, the XC6e also easily controls servo, galvo and piezo motors.

Automation1
The XC6e is a part of the user-friendly Automation1 motion control platform, which includes the following:
Delivers Ultra-Smooth Motion
Achieve ultra-smooth motion profiles with the XC6e’s optimized servo system response, which includes the use of up to sixteen (16) second-order loop-shaping filters, precise time-aligned feed-forward and other proprietary techniques.
Packed with Features
The features you need most come standard with the Automation1 XC6e, including safe torque off (STO), a data array with more than 16 million 32-bit elements, digital and analog I/O, Position Synchronized Output (PSO), dedicated home and end-of-travel limit inputs and an enhanced current sense device. The drive also includes internal bus voltage monitoring, over-voltage protection, an integral 300W shunt resistor and integral cooling fans.
Easy to Integrate
Integrating the XC6e is simple with features like auto-ranging control supply, integral encoder interpolation options, automatic brake control, digital and analog I/O expansion board and standard absolute encoder support.
Feedback Flexibility
The standard XC6e accepts square-wave and absolute encoder feedback signals. With the optional encoder multiplier feature, sine-wave encoders can be multiplied by up to 65,536, making XC6e our highest-resolution position feedback drive. Dual-multiplied and dual-absolute encoder feedback is supported.
Control Your Process
The XC6e is more than a motion control device. It also includes many process control features. Empowered with Aerotech’s Position Synchronized Output (PSO) functionality, a single-axis XC6e can track up to three encoders in real-time to trigger a process tool like an industrial laser or camera.
