One in all Celera Movement’s Denali Collection servo drives. | Supply: Celera Movement
Celera Movement, an award-winning enterprise unit of Novanta Inc., at this time introduced the launch the corporate’s smallest servo drives but.
Named the Denali Series, the brand new compact, ultra-fast servo drives are created for a wide range of service robots, surgical robots, industrial grippers and lab automation functions. Denali is the most recent addition to Celera Motion’s line of premium-performance Ingenia servo drives.
“Robotics is a really aggressive market, evolving quickly and requiring best-in-class servo drive expertise,” Marc Vila, Enterprise Director for Servo Drives, mentioned. “Utility-focused servo drives like Denali, the place we now have included options particularly required for the superior robotic market phase, dramatically assist engineers to speed up their designs, be extra aggressive and hold the give attention to their core enterprise.”
Denali presents an enhanced {hardware} structure in addition to optimized energy administration, with a minimal standby energy consumption of all the way down to 1.2 W. The servo drives work within the 250 W energy vary and are designed for surgical robotics, end-effectors, haptic gadgets, small joints and different compact robotics functions.
The collection options two variations:
- The Denali XCR, a miniature, ready-to-use model, that permits fast set up and system commissioning.
- The Denali NET, an ultra-compact, high-power density model. The pluggable design is perfect for a service board, with single or multi-axis integration.
Each variations can be found with EtherCAT and CANopen communication protocols, specifically optimized for demanding multi-axis functions. Denali helps EtherCAT with a bus latency all the way down to 1 cycle. This improves the cost-efficiency of embedding a number of axes right into a single PCB.
Amongst its key options:
- Compact and miniature; the world’s smallest servo drives, weighing solely 8g
- Twin loop assist for unparalleled precision
- Extraordinarily quick servo loops for easy operation
- PWM frequency as much as 150 kHz for low inductance motors
- Excessive effectivity and low standby energy consumption (as much as 99% effectivity)
- Value-optimized (single PCB) for distributed-centralized multi-axis configurations.
The Denali collection presents variations that assist a number of security options for high-performance robotic functions the place security is paramount. The Denali Collection is the most recent model of Ingenia’s Summit Servo Drives Collection. Others embrace the Capitan Series and the Everest S Series.
