Motion Controller With Digital Drive

The SB129D is a 120 Vac (direct offline) version of the SB1292 dual-axis control module. The unit combines advanced programmable motion control and a digital 500 W drive.

The SB129D has a multiprocessor, distributed-control design with a 20 MHz Intel processor for high-level task management and a dedicated 80 MHz SB2500 servo processor per axis for real-time control execution. This architecture ensures that speed and accuracy are not compromised as more axes are added.

The universal device is software configurable for dc brush, ac servo, and ac induction motors. It features automatic sinusoidal commutation setup for any three-phase motor.
