Discover the ACS motion control solutions at the PI booth at Drives & Control 2018
Join Physik Instrumente (PI) on stand D744 at Drives & Controls 2018 at the NEC Birmingham from the 10th to the 12th of April to discover the ACS motion control solutions range.
On display in the UK for the first time, these high performance EtherCAT®-based controllers and multi-axis drives enable the use of various motor types that can be conveniently integrated into a wide variety of high-end and demanding automation applications.
PI will be exhibiting a range of products from the ACS portfolio, including the latest NanoPWM™ amplifiers - offering linear amplifier performance with the power, robustness and cost-effectiveness of a PWM drive - and the LCM laser control module, which allows laser sources operation to be synchronised to motion profiles. Alongside, visitors will be able to see the SPiiPlusES drive node, which enables the addition of more capable motion control to existing EtherCAT automation solutions. Also on the stand will be the innovative motion control solution for laser scribing - a collaborative development between PI, ACS Motion Control and SCANLAB - combining a high speed laser galvanometer scanner with servo-driven stages to offer fast, flexible and precise laser machining, eliminating stitching errors and increasing throughput. The automation platform will be complemented by a small laser demonstrator, as well as a selection of PIs precision micro- and nanopositioning products, and hexapods, and there will be ample opportunities to discuss how the company can apply its systems capabilities to the demands of specific individual applications.
Visit stand D744 to see how PI can help meet your motion control and precision positioning needs.
Featured Product
Model TR1 Tru-Trac
The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
