The bus positioning application module can position with a variable number of target positions.
Features
No matter how large the variety of applications for table positioning, the wide range of functions provided by the application
module provides the right solution for every task.
- Any number of target positions can be defined and selected by means of a fieldbus/system bus.
- The positioning speed can be selected as required using the bus.
- Software limit switches can be defined and evaluated.
- Either incremental encoders or absolute encoders can be evaluated as external encoders.
- Simple connection to the master controller (PLC).
- Guided startup and diagnostics.
Advantages at a glance:
- User-friendly user interface.
- Users only need to enter the parameters for bus positioning (reduction ratios, speeds, diameters).
- Guided parameter setting process instead of complicated programming.
- Monitor mode for optimum diagnostics.
- Users do not need any programming experience.
- Rapid familiarization with the system.
Drive application: Bus positioning and extended bus positioning
The bus positioning module is suitable for positioning applications with a variable number of target positions.
"Bus Positioning" is available in two versions - complete or reduced function:
- "Bus Positioning" with three (3) process data and variable preset of target position and speed.
- "Extended Positioning via Bus" with six (6) process data and variable preset of target position, speed, and ramp.
Bus positioning applications can be found in the following sectors:
- Materials handling
-
- Trolleys
- Hoists
- Rail vehicles
- Logistics
- Palletizing / handling
The solution with MOVIDRIVE®
Set parameters instead of programming
Use the application module "Bus Positioning" or "Extended Positioning via Bus" (in the application version, it is a component
of the MOVITOOLS® software for MOVIDRIVE®). A user-friendly user interface guides you through the process of setting the parameters. All you have to do is enter the
parameters you need for your application: for example, reduction ratios, travel speeds, driving diameters, and target positions.
The application module uses this information to create the control program and loads it into the inverter.
