Minarik Drives
Save costs, simplify sizing with this new servo system
The new Allen-Bradley Kinetix 5100 servo drive has multiple control modes available to support a wider range of high-speed, low-power motion-control applications. The drive can be used with a Micro800 controller, a Logix controller or even by itself, allowing original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to choose how the product best functions in their applications. Bundling the drive, motor and cable together creates more competitive system pricing. With built-in safe torque off (STO), users can remove motor torque without removing power from an entire machine, allowing a machine to restart faster after it has reached a safe state. Dual-port EtherNet/IP also supports device-level ring topologies. — Rockwell Automation, Inc. Milwaukee, Wis.
