Pulse-Train Positioning Input Driver

P-Driver is a pulse-train input driver that enables flexible operation of IAI's ROBO Cylinder and single-axis automation robots.

• The P-Driver can control a wide range of ROBO Cylinders and single-axis automation robots. (Motor wattage: 20W to 750W, Strokes: 50mm to 3,000mm)
• The P-Driver comes fully assembled and pre-formatted to the specific actuator ordered. Cost, assembly time and design time can be reduced as compared to integrating a system in-house by assembling the ballscrew, motor, linear guides and various other parts.
• Pulse-train control puts no limitation on the number of positioning points.

• The Dedicated homing input enables automatic homing without programming a complex sequence.

• Torque can be limited using external signal (via parameter setting). Signal is output when the specified torque is reached. Push operation and press-fitting become possible with the use of this function.

• The electric actuator's brake (optional) is controlled via a dedicated circuit inside the controller. There is no need to program a special sequence.
• With the use of a dedicated power supply (24 VCD), the brake can be forcibly released while the driver's main power is off

• Position detection data can be output in pulse trains (differential output). This enables reading of the current position in real time from the host controller.

• Response can be improved under certain conditions when the load inertia ratio is high. Increasing the parameter setting decreases the deviation, thus resulting in improved response. (Deviation is the difference between the position command and the position feedback.)

• Soft start and stop are possible even with command pulse inputs for which acceleration/deceleration is not specified.
