EtherCAT Dual/Quad Axis Drive Module

The UDMLC is a series of small footprint EtherCAT modules with dual/ quad-axis universal drives for servo, stepper, and voice coil motors with a power range of 10 W to 200 W. The type of motor is selected by the user and can be set differently for each drive. 

This product addresses the needs of demanding multi-axis motion applications with limited space, such as moving inspection heads, small manipulators, and table-top motion stages. The miniature size, low weight, and minimal cable interface makes the SPiiPlusUDMLC ideal for mounting remotely on moving axes. It is available in three current levels (cont./peak per axis): 1.25/2.5 A, 2.5/5 A or 5/10 A (dual axis version only), and has inputs for four digital incremental and two absolute encoders.

The unit is powered by a 12 to 48 V DC motor bus voltage supply and by a separate 15 to 48 V DC control supply that keeps all logic signals alive during emergency conditions. The UDMLC is panel or din rail mountable.
