PIglide Motion Controller for 4, 6 or 8 Axes For Stages with Direct Drive and High Power Requirements, TCP/IP Interface A-82x  4, 6 or 8 high-performance motion axes  Fully integrated closed-loop servo control, amplifier module, and power supplies  For voice coil drives, DC motors and brushless 3-phase motors  Quiet PWM drives  Encoder inputs support sine/cosine and BiSS-C  10 A continuous current / 20 A peak output current per axis Overview The A-82x motion controller series from PI offers a fully integrated electronics solution with controller, drives, and power supplies in a compact 4-U-high 19-inch rack unit. The A-824 supplies continuous power of 2 kW. The A-82x controllers are designed and optimized for PIglide air bearing stages that are equipped with direct drive linear and rotation servo motors, and high-resolution encoders. Standard options include inputs for incremental sine/cosine and absolute encoders that use the BiSS-C data protocol. Support for sine/cosine encoders has an integrated interpolation factor of 16384x. All controllers feature integrated flash memory for stored motion programs and parameters. The A-82x controllers can be operated in stand-alone mode running stored programs, or controlled via an external PC. A PC is required for programming and startup. All software is supplied with the controller. If the controller is purchased together with a PIglide air bearing stage or positioning system, PI will perform the servo tuning, startup of the controller, and error calibration, and supply a complete ready-to-use positioning system. The A-82x motion controller features the state of the art ACS SPiiPlusEC motion controller and EtherCAT® master, and includes ServoBoost™ for up to eight axes of motion. ServoBoost™ provides better, more consistent servo performance that is insensitive to noise or changes in the system.  Absolute encoders or incremental encoders (can be combined individually according to customer specifications for all     axes of the controller) G-Code programming Input shaping Additional control axes for external drives via EtherCAT® Alternative customized packaging fo
