Haydon Kerk Announced Programmable Stepper Motor Drive

Published:2011/11/13 22:03:00 Author:Amy From:SeekIC

The Haydon RoHS compliant PCM7539X IDEA programmable stepper motor drive from Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions is capable of a 75 VDC input voltage and a max output current of 3.85 A rms.

The device is intended for controlling the larger-size stepper motor linear actuators provided by Haydon Kerk. And just like the lower-power IDEA drives, it has the similar functionality and programmability. Programming the drive, however, is the adoption of on-screen buttons instead of complicated command sets or other proprietary programming languages. The software enables the system designer to easily troubleshoot programs, using line-by-line or multiple line program execution via the interactive debug feature. Inputs and outputs also can be simulated in software before ever connecting actual I/O hardware. Technical specifications for the PCM7539X include programmable current control, 12 VDC to 75VDC input voltage, drive current per phase of 3.85 A rms plus a 30 percent “current boost” function for use during ramping, eight digital I/O points, and memory for up to 75 stored motion control programs.

Recognized as a leading manufacturer of precision acme lead screw and anti-backlash nut assemblies, stepper motor based linear actuators, and linear rail and guide systems, Haydon Kerk Motion Solutions offers high performance in demanding applications such as laboratory automation, medical instrumentation, semiconductor fabrication, military, aerospace, and industrial applications. The company now offers a broad range of precision linear motion products.
