The positioning actuators of the EncoTRive product line by TR-Electronic are perfect for a variety of positioning and actuation applications. These combined drive systems provide several benefits:
Product choice: Functionally integrated drive technology from one provider – encompassing electronic, mechanical, and control systems. Standardized series along with application-specific modifications allow for various types of drives, from basic adjustments to intricate and dynamic positioning functions.
Application: Quick and consistently repeatable format modification. Utilized as primary or auxiliary axes in industrial automation—whenever modularity and adaptability are essential.
Control: Uniform interfaces through shared fieldbuses and eased management via internal positioning algorithms and customizable telegrams
The EncoTRive MP-xxx and EncoTRive MA-xxx series serve as a perfect substitute for the SIMODRIVE POSMO drive from SIEMENS AG, which is unavailable now, particularly for the POSMO A 75 W drive, which has only been sold as a spare part since 2017 and has been officially phased out.
EncoTRive utilizes the same series of gearboxes, guaranteeing complete mechanical compatibility. The drives provide reduced weight, a more compact form, and a broader selection of options:
- Brushless versions featuring 4 power settings (60 to 180 watts)
- Brush models featuring three power settings (55 to 130 watts)
- Interfaces: Profibus DP, Profinet IO, utilizing PROFIdrive version V3.0
For the applications of the bigger drive type POSMO A 300 W, TR-Electronic provides the MP-200 and MP-282 series featuring peak outputs ranging from 350 to 800 watts and interfaces including Profibus DP, Profinet IO, CANopen, and EtherCAT, along with an optional holding brake.
All drives are engineered for positioning tasks and feature a built-in absolute encoder that needs referencing just once. Alternatively, it’s also feasible to operate at pure speed
