Description

Design Features

  • Plug-in amplifiers with dedicated control cards drive brush, brushless, stepper, voice coil or piezo motors
  • Dedicated controller card for each amplifier
  • Up to 30 A peak current output
  • Includes PSO, the ultimate in position-based control for industrial lasers, cameras & more
  • Integrated power supplies
  • Features safe torque off (STO) functional safety (certification pending)

The XR3 motor circuits are driven by powerful controller cards that close the servo and current loops at 20 kHz. These cards also provide several other high-speed, low-latency control features to improve your process throughput and quality. The XR3 unit processes digital and analog I/O, high-speed data collection, high-speed differential outputs, position synchronized outputs and encoder multiplication functionality in real-time.

Automation1

The XR3 is a part of the user-friendly Automation1 motion control platform, which includes the following:

Standard drive features for the XR3 include per-axis brake control logic, auxiliary encoder feedback and analog I/O expansion. Also standard are 16 opto-isolated inputs, 16 opto-isolated outputs, up to 12 high-speed differential outputs, 3 PSO external sync inputs, 3 TTL or isolated PSO outputs, 1 opto-isolated data-acquisition input and 2 STO sense inputs.

Configuration options for the XR3 include three different levels of integrated encoder multiplication, cooling options, mounting options, and low-latency, position-based process control (PSO) options.

The XR3 can be configured with either PWM or linear plug-in amplifiers to control brushless, DC brush or stepper motors at up to 320 VDC operating voltage and 30 A peak current capability. Bus power customization is possible through two separate and configurable motor power supply circuits, allowing a variety of motors to be integrated with the XR3. When only one motor voltage is required, the power supply sections are joined together for even higher power capability. The XR3 also contains over-voltage protection and external fans for high-power operation.

Integration (Required)

Aerotech offers both standard and custom integration services to help you get your system fully operational as quickly as possible. The following standard integration options are available for this system. Please consult Aerotech if you are unsure what level of integration is required, or if you desire custom integration support with your system.

Option Description
-TAS Integration - Test as system


Testing, integration, and documentation of a group of components as a complete system that will be used
together (ex: drive, controller, and stage). This includes parameter file generation, system tuning,
and documentation of the system configuration.
-TAC Integration - Test as components


Testing and integration of individual items as discrete components that ship together. This is typically used
for spare parts, replacement parts, or items that will not be used together. These components may or may
not be part of a larger system.
