Motion Terminal VTEM Innovative Benefits of piezo valves for ilot p control: • Pressure regulation function • Very long service life • Minimum energy requirement • Low leakage when acting as a proportional pressure regulator Reliable Integrated sensors monitor the switching status of the valves and the pressure in ports 1, 3, 2 and 4. The connected actuators can be monitored using optional input modules. This information is evaluated in the Motion Terminal VTEM itself and also transferred to a higher-order controller. Configurable product This product and all its product options can be...

Motion Terminal VTEM Key features Flexibility Motion Apps The Motion Terminal VTEM comprises four 2/2-way valves with piezo pilot control that form a bridge circuit and are monitored by sensors. This creates a number of special features compared with a valve terminal that has conventional piston spool valves. The valves can perform the functions of a: • 2x 2/2-way valve • 2x 3/2-way valve • 4/2-way valve • 4/3-way valve • Proportional pressure regulator • Proportional directional control valve Other functions that are usually associated with separate components, such as flow control or...

Motion Terminal VTEM Key features Integrated sensors Monitoring functions Integrated sensors monitor: • Degree of opening of the valve (flow rate for supply air and exhaust air) • Pressure Monitoring is carried out: • For each individual valve • For each individual valve port This generates the following diagnostic information: • System leakage This means that a wide range of requirements can be met: • Independent, proportional regulation of the supply and exhaust air for each cylinder chamber Movement with reduced force Principle: Pressure is built up on the pressurisation side purely to...

Motion Terminal VTEM Key features – Pneumatic components Pneumatics of the Motion Terminal The Motion Terminal VTEM is operated exclusively with the electric terminal CPX. A Motion Terminal VTEM comprises 2, 4 or 8 valve positions. The pneumatic and electrical connections are in a fixed grid. Subsequent extension is not possible. One or two positions for input modules with 8 digital or 8 analogue inputs can be integrated into the Motion Terminal. VTEM offers a comprehensive range of programmable valve functions. The valves comprise four 2/2-way proportional valves connected to form a bridge...
