Two become one: Hybrid servo cable with bus element now available2013-11-13
igus, cable and cable carrier specialist, now has a single cable solution for servo motors and its program: the hybrid servo cable has an integrated hyperface bus element. Keeping up with the emerging trend of offering single cable technology for servo motors, the hybrid servo cable, based on the Chainflex® cable series CF270-UL-D, is changing things in the field of drive technology. Traditionally, the servo motor and the converter are connected with two cables, one servo cable for the supply of energy for the motor, and an encoder cable to supply data about rotation speed and motor position back to the control. Now, drive manufacturers increasingly offer servo motors with single cable technology. The principle: energy and data feedback are coupled in one cable. In this case, complex measuring system cables, usually used for the encoder function, are replaced by bus technology. As well as saving space by reducing the number of cables needed, costs are minimized by reducing the number of plugs needed, installation time, and a reduction in other materials needed, such as cable management. |
