TRINAMIC Motion Control GmbH & Co. KG announced the TMCM-1617 single-axis servo controller module designed for servo drives with 18A RMS and 8 to 28V DC supply voltage.
Achieving high-current loop frequencies to minimize current ripple, the potted module enables smaller electric drives with high dynamics, according to the company. The TMCM-1617 also supports a range of encoders for position feedback, including incremental encoders, analog encoders, and digital hall sensors as position feedback.
According to the company, the TMCM-1617 completed a highly accelerated life test (HALT) with operational temperatures ranging from -40°C to 85°C and mechanical vibrations of up to 30 GRMS.
