With the KeDrive D5 single-axis servo controller series, KEBA are expanding the KeDrive product family especially for drive applications with a small number of axes. KeDrive D5 is a multi-tool that can be easily integrated into your application.
As part of KEBA open modular automation platform Kemro X, the new servo controller for single-axis applications fits seamlessly into KEBA drive portfolio. In addition to the compact multi-axis drive system KeDrive D3 and the 3-axis controller KeDrive D3-AC, we now also have the single-axis drive system KeDrive D5 for versatile drive solutions.
The latest additions to the KeDrive product family feature high dynamics and precision with powerful motor control for synchronous, asynchronous, linear and torque motors. Thanks to the Ethernet-based fieldbus interface and CANopen, the KeDrive D5 can also be easily connected to third-party control devices. A wide supply voltage range from 24 V DC to 480 V AC makes the KeDrive D5 suitable for a wide range of low-voltage and extra-low-voltage applications. Various options, such as encoder simulation for easy synchronization of multiple axes or a multi-encoder interface for load position detection, ensure a high level of flexibility and future security.
For mechanical engineers, the new single-axis controller is an interesting alternative to the KeDrive D3 multi-axis controller in applications with a low axis count. In device and equipment construction, the KeDrive D5 scores points with its low leakage current and compactness. On average, the new series is only half the size of the well-known ServoOne and thanks to the integrated line filter, users can easily comply with EMC standards even in residential areas.
