AMCI's SD17060L Integrated Stepper Indexer / Driver for IO-Link network reduces stepper control system costs by eliminating the need for a separate stepper controller in your PLC - we've built the indexer into the driver! Plus, programming and configuration over the network is easy because it uses the PLC's native software (eg. Studio 5000, TIA Portal, WindLDR, others). No extra software is required, and you don't need to learn another programming language. AMCI's SD17060L Integrated Series interfaces with your IO-Link compatible PLC (Allen-Bradley, Schneider, Omron, Siemens, Automation Direct, and others), saving you time and money!
If you're seeking flexibility, AMCI's SD17060L Series scores high marks. We've made it easy to add stepper axes wherever you need them on your IO-Link network, just plug in another SD17060L Series drive and configure your network - done.
Design Features
Besides connectivity with IO-Link, AMCI's SD17060L Networked Series boasts several features over conventional stepper drivers. Our vari-step velocity control provides unsurpassed smoothness and performance independent of the user’s configured resolution. Smoothness is guaranteed even at the lowest resolutions. Plus, a narrow and compact design saves space, and versatile mounting options allow for panel or side installation.
Safety & Reliability
Standard AMCI safeguards also remain; including an interlock connection to prevent injury if the motor connector is removed while the driver is powered. Additional protections include short circuit protection - phase to phase and phase to ground- and over temperature circuitry.
Compatibility
Besides AMCI’s trademark reliability, the SD17060L Integrated Stepper Indexer / Driver for IO-Link network was engineered to power AMCI's complete line of high torque stepper motors, ranging in size from NEMA 17 to NEMA 34.
This combination of stepper motor driver and indexer provides the best performance for your application. Performance, price, and product all combine to offer you the best value.
