Versatile, second generation position controller is 94% efficient

maxon motor has expanded its second generation range of easy-to-use positioning systems (EPOS2) to include the 70/10 controller, which offers an improved efficiency of 94%. Operational modes include both open dual loop positioning and speed controller. Step movement can now be controlled directly using the step/direction function, whilst the master encoder mode allows the EPOS2 70/10 to be used as an electronic gearhead.

In its interpolated position mode, the EPOS2 70/10 can be used to run a path synchronously with exceptional accuracy. The controller is compatible with maxon’s dc brush motors with encoder, as well as the company's range of brushless EC motors equipped with Hall sensors.
