High Precision Nip Control

GSX Series integrated motor actuators integrate all the advantages of Exlar® roller screw and T-LAM stator technologies to create powerful and robust solutions with long life. The specially designed roller screw mechanism efficiently converts electric motor power into linear motion. Planetary rollers, assembled around the extending rod, follow threads that are precisely machined on the inside of the actuator’s hollow rotor.

• Provides precise distance and pressure control which is key for laminating or coating applications
• Integrated brushless servo motor and linear rod-style actuator in a single compact unit
• Designed for closed loop servo systems
• Sealed housing for extended life and minimum maintenance
• Configurable for use with almost every brand of servo drive

The SigmaLogic7 Compact allows motion sequencing and axis control using Rockwell ControlLogix and CompactLogix PLCs via Add On Instructions (AOIs).

Highlights

• No other programming software needed
• Use direct command or 200 point configurable sequence table
• Contains all the benefits of the Sigma-5 Servo System

  STO safety function

The i950 is the basis of a compact servo drive that integrates consistently into our automation platform with absolute ease.

The same architecture, the same engineering and use of the same application software dissolve the boundaries between drive-based and controller-based automation. The “FAST” application software toolbox becomes usable for all products.

With FAST, we make a lot of things easier for the customer as the FAST applications of the i950 can be put to use immediately and can be adapted to the respective machine task by means of parameterization alone. If necessary, however, they can be adapted and extended very easily according to specific customer requirements.

In addition, the i950 servo inverter enhances the performance of the i700 servo inverter in our controller-based system in the range of 30 to 148 hp (22 to 110 kW).
