PDMnt
4 Axis Pulse/Direction Drive Interface
Overview
PDMnt- 4 Axis Pulse/Direction Drive Interface
- Four axis Pulse Direction interface Module for EtherCAT network
- Open loop control of Servo or Step motor drives with Pulse/ Direction interface
- High frequency programmable pulse rate for triggering lasers
- Up to 4M pulses per second
- Eight digital inputs and eight digital outputs
The PDMNT provides the ability to add up to four step motor and servo motor drives with Pulse/Dir interface to an EtherCAT network using any of ACS’ EtherCAT masters. Each of the dive interfaces consists of Pulse/Dir, limit switches, enable and fault feedback.
The maximum pulse rate is 4MHz.
The module can also be used by a SPiiPlus EtherCAT master to control Laser generators with a dynamically programmable pulse rates.
