COMPACT SERVO TERMINALS OFFER BIG TIME CAPABILITIES IN INTRALOGISTICS


A PERFECT BALANCE OF COMPACT SIZE AND IMPRESSIVE POWER, ELM72XX SERVO DRIVES
DELIVER THE IDEAL MOTION SOLUTION FOR AS/RS, AGV AND AMR APPLICATIONS








Autonomous systems continue to grow in distribution centers and warehouses.
Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are
evolving through exciting advancements in navigation systems. Likewise,
shuttles, lifts and robotics in Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS)
are becoming faster, more precise and nearly indispensable in modern
intralogistics settings.






To boost motion control capabilities, these system types require reliable I/O
and servo technology. Fortunately, the ELM72xx Compact EtherCAT Servo Drive
series delivers for such applications, using proven drive technology from
Beckhoff with the feature set of TwinCAT 3 automation software as well as the
high speed and determinism of EtherCAT. These 48 V DC drives offer dual-channel
(2 x 4.5 A, 2 x 8 A) and single-channel (up to 16 A) versions. Perfectly matched
to the ELM72xx drives, the new AM81xx motors offer speeds up to 8,000 rpm and
about 4 Nm of continuous power, which is about 1 kW.






The ELM72xx compact metal housing mounts on DIN rail and fits into standard I/O
designs, allowing users to implement higher EMC protection in a smaller
footprint compared to previous compact motion terminals. It also incorporates
new safety features via robust Safety over EtherCAT (FSoE) technology. This
simplifies a user's TwinSAFE implementation and allows TwinSAFE motion for Safe
Limited Speed (SLS), Safe Limited Position (SLP) and Safe Torque Off (STO). With
15 different TwinSAFE motion options, engineers can put more machine safety
measures in more places to better protect personnel, products and equipment.






Add up all the benefits and you’ll see that these compact motion devices can
have a huge impact in intralogistics applications that meet and exceed the
demands of ever-changing markets.
