2 Hand Held DC Controller Hand-held DC Motion Controllers Simple bi-directional variable speed DC motor controller Brushless DC motor technology for long life 50 W power output Full torque from RPM Limit switch input options Introduction UHV Design s DC motor controller has been developed to offer simple, single-axis remote control of its manipulation products. The control interface module with both speed and direction controls, can be plugged into the motor directly. Alternatively an extension cable can be utilised for remote control. The control interface can then take two inputs for limit switches, thus preventing over-drive in either direction. The hand-held DC motor controller provides a simple cost effective solution to DC motorisation. Operation The system has the advantage over many conventional variable voltage supplies in that it is a true speed controller and gives full torque throughout the speed range. It has particularly smooth running characteristics (even at slow speeds). Universally rated to ensure voltage compatibility, the controller is fully compliant with EMC test regulations and carries the CE mark. The DC Motor controller is only specified for DC motor driven components it has been supplied with. This will ensure product compatibility.

4 Introduction The PSMCC series offers a complete solution for intelligent motion control of stepper motor driven products for up to four axes of motion. The units are provided with user-friendly Microsoft Windows based software, offering a multitude of features to accommodate both general and complex motion control requirements. The complete solution Stepper motors require an electronic module to accept command signals and interpret these in terms of providing power to the motor. This module is called a driver. Drivers also require a further electronic system with software to compute and execute the required motion profile, interface with other systems and control the sequence and timing of events. This system is called a controller. UHV Design have combined driver and controller with the necessary peripheral components required for an industrial standard, programmable stepper motor control centre. To ensure plug and play with all UHV Design products, various upgrades are offered including pre-wired bakeable home and limit switches, along with input and motor connectors. PSMCC s can be used together to provide up to four separate axes of motion, enabling complete motion control solutions to be provided. Performance features The control centres are each housed in 19 inch rack mounted cases. The front panel features switches for starting a sequence, jogging and an emergency stop. All other control functions are entered through the PSMCC s software. This Microsoft Windows based software package allows the user to set motor current, idle current, step resolution, jogging parameters, limit switch polarity and even define the units to be used. Programmable Stepper Motor Control Centre Single and Multiple axes control User friendly software Plug and Play with UHV Design products The user-friendly software provides an excellent interface to write both simple and complex motion control programs. Once programmed, the centre may be disconnected from the PC and on the start command, will execute the downloaded control commands. Software interface examples are included on page 179. Ultra-smooth motion A micro-stepping driver is used to ensure smooth motor operation, avoiding the cogging associated with stepper motors. Micro stepping, subdivides 1.8 steps (standard motors) with a choice of up to 13 further step resolutions. The highest setting divides each full step in to 254 micro-steps. Module configuration Schematic diagrams for single and multiple axis control systems can be found on pages 180 and 181. As illustrated, each axis requires a separate control centre with corresponding cables. Each can then be fitted with a remote jog facility. PSMCC control centres can be configured for 110 Vac or 220 Vac sales@uhvdesign.com Tel:+44(0)

8 Modular Stepper Motor Controller (MSMC) Single and Multiple axis control A complete system solution Plug & run simplicity Programmable positioning Optional closed loop control Matching size frame motors Bench or rack mounting options 0.5 to 3.5 A per phase current output. 48 V DC Introduction The MSMC integrated stepper motor controller provides a cost effective solution to a wide range of applications that require accurate manipulation of the driven mechanism. The MSMC incorporates a less sophisticated software interface to that of the UHV Design Programmable Stepper Motor Control Centre (PSMCC) range described on page 178. A user friendly command line interface is used to communicate to the MSMC via a host computer. The commands are inputted as a string of ASCII characters that can then be transferred via the RS232 or RS485 connection to the controller. A number of strings can be stored in the MSMCs on board memory to form a sequence of moves that can be triggered by the available inputs. Simply connect the intelligent drive to a PC, motor, travel limits etc, and an AC power supply using cables provided, and the system is fully operational. Integrated power supply for direct connection to AC supply Choice of 115 or 230 Vac, 50 or 60Hz operation Integrated high efficiency bi-polar drive stage 400 step/rev. (half-step mode) motor resolution provides smooth operation Integrated motion controller RS232 or RS485 communication Up to 99 units can be daisy chained to a single port Internal memory stores sequences for stand alone operation Programmable position, acceleration, deceleration & velocity 8 in and 8 out programmable digital I/O to interface with other process functions Dedicated inputs for limits and datums Optional jog box for manual operation Choice of matched size 17, 23 & 34 frame motors For more information on the MSMC controller please contact sales sales@uhvdesign.com Tel:+44(0)
