Motion Control Products has introduced the new Fast-Back integrated digital motor/drive combination, which offers decentralised speed and position control in a compact package. It allows the designer greater freedom in machine layout due to its decentralised structure, whilst also reducing cost of ownership due to simplified installation, commissioning and service costs.
The FBK range is available in single and three-phase variants (230v), with two frame sizes (75 and 100mm) and four stack lengths (230-373mm), offering up to 7.5Nm continuous stall torque and 15Nm peak. True decentralisation comes from the integrated motion controller, with internal EMC line filter offering the highest level of suppression. Position feedback comes courtesy of a 2048cpr encoder.
Integrated communication via Can Open is included plus Mod Bus via RS232/RS485, and the Fast-Back is fully-programmable using the intuitive Speeder-One software interface.
Applications for the FBK unit include food processing and packaging machines, labelling equipment, medical equipment, laser/water jet cutters, pick-and-place and industrial printing machines, wood and metal-working machines.
The FBK range is available alongside a wider range of MCP brand product which includes hybrid stepper and brushed dc motors/geared motors.
