Servo drive offers the benefits of using Sercos
Rockwell Automation introduces the new Allen-Bradley 1394 SERCOS drive for high speed, flexible, easy to use motion control. With single point programming, reduced wiring requirements, and the elimination of analogue offsets and EMI effects, it is perfect for OEMs and end users. Sercos (SErial Real time COmmunication System interface) is a digital interface that provides improved system performance and increased speed.
It communicates information between the controller and servo drive via a fibre optic, real-time, deterministic network.
The network replaces the complex bundle of wiring associated with traditional drives and is used to send and receive information about the status of the drive.
This includes the demand position and axis position together with many drive parameters.
The benefits of using Sercos, include ease of commissioning, higher accuracy, and improved system performance.
Originated as a solution for the machine tool industry, Sercos network speed has advanced significantly in recent years, allowing more axes of control and faster update rates.
