EMERSON FX Series Positioning Servo Drive Systems

EMERSON FX Series Positioning Servo Drive Systems

Description

FX Series Positioning Servo Drive Systems have been  providing customers with an easy to use servo solution  for more than a decade. Many common applications are  solved with the combination of an FX drive and PCM  module. The FX and PCM module were the genesis  of the current generation of “Motion Made Easy”  solutions.

APPLICATION MODULES ORIENT FX DRIVES FOR SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS

For advanced positioning applications, EMERSON Motion Control offers a series of Application Modules. These modules easily attach to the front of any FX Drive and allow the drive to perform advanced positioning functions such as phase synchronization, ratio control, web control and rotary knife cutoffs.

Application Modules are programmed using the same PCX Software used for basic FX Drives. Once the positioning program has been set up, the Application Module stores the program in non-volatile memory. This allows the Application Module to be moved to a different drive of  any size without having to reenter the program data.

Application Modules provide additional hardware necessary to perform the applications such as increased I/O, encoder interfaces, and analog inputs and outputs. Onboard nonvolatile memory allows a module to be moved to a different FX Drive without losing parameters entered using PCX Software or ASCII serial commands.
