The ACOPOS™ servo family was tested thoroughly during the development phase. Under difficult conditions, such as heavy vibrations or increased temperatures, the devices were subject to loads that greatly exceed the values that occur in normal everyday operation.
EMC was given special attention to facilitate use in a rough industrial environment. Field tests have been carried out under difficult conditions in addition to the tests defined in the standard. The results confirm the excellent values measured by the testing laboratory and during operation. The necessary filters, which meet CE guidelines, are also integrated in the device. Using computer-aided models, the thermal behavior of the entire system is pre-calculated based on measured currents and temperatures. This results in maximum performance by taking advantage of the system’s full capabilities. ACOPOS™ servo drives use the information on the motor’s embedded parameter chip, which contains all relevant mechanical and electronic data. The extensive and error-prone task of setting parameters manually is no longer necessary and start-up times are substantially reduced. During service, relevant data can be requested and the cause of problems that may exist can be determined.
