IDM240 / IDM640 Intelligent Servo Drives
240 W /640 W, CAN / CANopen


IDM240 and IDM640 are fully digital high-precision servo drives with embedded intelligence and built-in 240 W / 640 W power amplifier. Used to control brushless DC, brushless AC (vector control), DC brush, or 2/3-phase stepping motors, these high-performance intelligent servo drives combine motion controller, power amplifier and PLC functionality in a single, compact unit.

The on-board CAN-bus interface allows this type of drive to be used as an intelligent axis in a distributed-intelligence, multiple-axis network (up to 256 axes).

The motion programming can be done via a PC or PLC using the appropriate motion library, or directly at drive level using the high-level Technosoft motion language (TML) of the built-in motion controller. Motion programming at drive level helps you to save development time with complex applications, by distributing the intelligence between the master and the drives. The effect is a reduction in the number of tasks performed by the master, which can call motion functions that are pre-stored in the drive memory, or trigger their execution via I/O signals.

Combined with EasyMotion Studio – a graphical platform for quick configuration, tuning and motion programming – the IDM240 / IDM640 represent a flexible and easy to implement solution for a wide range of applications. For integration in CANopen-based communication structures, the TechnoCAN protocol offers you the possibility of using the IDM connected (on the same physical bus) to other CANopen devices – and still benefit from the TML flexibility.
