Linear array motor controller MC series

brushlessDCfor aircraft

The motion controllers from FAULHABER ensure precise positioning when using our DC-motors, BLDC-motors and linear motors. Apart from their high quality and compact design, they are also characterized by their extremely easy operation and a large number of different operating modes. They enable precise and efficient control of the motor movement (motion control), which is matched perfectly to the respective application. What is a motion controller? A motion controller is a control unit that implements 4-quadrant regulation. Using motion control, predefined positions can be approached selectively and dynamically in the application. How are FAULHABER motion controllers designed? The three most important components of a motion controller are the processor, the control electronics and the output stage. From the predefined parameters and the feedback data from the drive, the microprocessor calculates the dynamic control variable used to control the movement of the motor. The control electronics process the relevant signals; the output stage is responsible for supplying power to the motor. Motion controllers require feedback containing information about the movement of the motor. Depending on the device version and the motor connected, this information can come from different sources: analog value, Hall sensor signal or encoder signal. The motion controllers are available with or without housing. Devices with housing are connected using screw terminals; without housing, they are plugged directly into a master board. In order to network motion control, either RS232, CANopen and EtherCAT interfaces are available.
