Multi-axis positioning system

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document describes a compact 2 or 3-axis positioning system designed for table use, featuring integrated CNC control and complete cabling for easy connection to mains. It emphasizes ease of start-up, operation, and programming, along with high maintainability and serviceability, offering an optimal price-performance ratio. The system includes a 5.7” touch screen, available in monochrome or chrome, which is removable.

Assembly Techniques: The system supports various assembly techniques including screwing, riveting, stud welding, gluing, casting, and small processing.

Technical Specifications: The system offers a Z-axis with either a 50 mm or 100 mm stroke, mounted on the X-axis, and includes control extensions for a third axis. It features rotary tables (RT2A 100 and RT2A 150) with stepper motors and control extensions for additional axes. The system includes 24 digital inputs and 16 digital outputs, wired via D-Sub plug connections.

Mechanical Construction: The base frame and bridge are made of cast aluminum, while the machine housing is painted sheet steel. The dimensions are 765 x 805 x 545 mm, with a T-slot plate dimension of 540 x 375 mm featuring 15 T-slots.

Performance Parameters: The traversing range is 500 mm for the X-axis and 300 mm for the Y-axis, with an optional Z-axis of 50 or 100 mm. The maximum traverse rate is 8 m/min, with a positioning accuracy of ±0.06/300 mm and a repeating accuracy of 0.01 mm. The system uses stepper or servomotors, with resolutions of 0.025 mm for stepper motors and 0.0025 mm for servomotors.

Operating Functions: The touch screen includes mode selector, soft keys, numeric keypad, teach-in function, and feed override, with an optional standard keyboard. Programming is supported by NC-programming according to DIN 66025, with features like subroutine calls, automatic syntax checks, and decimal point programming.

Communication and Interfaces: The system includes a USB keyboard, LVDS display, USB ports, Ethernet, CAN 2.0b, and CanOpen interfaces. It features an integrated emergency stop unit and optic isolated digital inputs and outputs. Feedback systems include resolver, EnDAT, hyperface, and incremental systems.

Supply Voltage and Operating Conditions: The system operates on a 230 VAC mains connection with a DC output of 24 VDC and a maximum power input of 750 VA. It functions within a storage temperature range of -20 °C to +60 °C and an ambient temperature range of 0 °C to +40 °C, with a protection class of IP 20 for the CNC logic unit.
