TMC-3D Multi-Axis Motion Controller and Servo Drive

TMC-3D combines a multi-axis motion controller and a digital servo drive in a single compact unit.

Capable of generating a 3-dimensional path, and to command up to 8 Technosoft drives, TMC-3D can be programmed using the high level Technosoft motion language (TML), or via motion libraries available for PC or PLC.

Thanks to its embedded drive, a 3-D trajectory can be executed using a TMC-3D plus 2 other Technosoft drives.

Features:

• 8-axis motion controller, with integrated digital servo amplifier for one axis
• 3D and 2^1/2D coordinated moves using PVT commands (position, velocity and time) sent to Technosoft drives (one of these drives can be the TMC-3D itself), G-code execution.
• Drive suitable for AC brushless, DC brushless, DC brush, and 2/3-phase stepping motors
• External reference: analog or digital (a 2nd encoder, or pulse and direction)
• Powerful TML instruction set including: motion commands, program flow control, I/O handling, arithmetic and logic operations, remote control from another drive
• Axes synchronization among all drives
• Output current: 8 A continuous; 16.5 A peak
• Supply voltage: 12 to 48 V for logic; 12 to 80 V for motor
• Compact covered-frame design (136 x 84.5 x 26) mm
• DSP controller based on Technosoft's MotionChip™ technology
• 12-bit PWM at 20 KHz
• Communication: CAN-bus up to 1 Mbit/s and RS-232 serial up to 115 k baud rate
