Overview
Digitax ST 1.7 - 8.0 A rms (5.1 - 24
Peak)
230 / 460 Volts
Flexible 1.5 Axis Servo Drive
Overview
Meeting the demands of modern lean manufacturing
environments requires smaller more flexible machinery. Digitax ST
is the first ever drive designed to help machine designers and
system integrators meet these challenges; optimized for servo
applications requiring high peak torque, dynamic response, ease of
use and flexible integration features.

Four product variants ensure that the
drives capabilities perfectly matches your servo
applications.
Digitax ST - Base
Optimized for centralized control, to operate with motion
controllers, motion PLCs and industrial PC based motion systems
using a wide range of digital or analogue interface
technologies.
Digitax ST - Indexer
Designed for simple standalone positioning applications using an
onboard position controller. Fieldbus, Ethernet and I/O enable
connectivity to other automation components.
Digitax ST - EZMotion
The Digitax ST-EZMotion variant along with our easy-to-use
PowerTools Pro software is the perfect solution for complex motion
control without the steep learning curve found in other software
environments. The Digitax ST-EZMotion is ideal for indexing,
synchronizing, camming and coordinated motion applications.
Digitax ST - Plus
Features a full functionality motion controller, optimized for
high performance machine cells requiring drive-to-drive networking
and precision synchronization. The motion and communications
are configured within a flexible IEC61131-3 software development
environment using PLCopen function blocks. Fieldbus, Ethernet and
I/O connectivity enable interfacing with other automation
components and intellectual property protection ensures that your
valuable knowledge remains secure.

Typical Applications
- Printing
- Packaging
- Pick and Place
- Material Handling
- Indexing
- Conveyor Positioning
- Cut-to-length
- Labeling
- Rotary Knife
- Flying Shear
Benefits
- Onboard position controller offers superior performance and
reduces panel space
- High-speed drive to drive network reduces wiring and improves
system performance
- Familiar programming environments reduce development time
- Real-time servo networks such as EtherCAT, SERCOS and CANopen
allow the drive to operate with most motion controllers
- Ethernet and Fieldbus connectivity enable the drive to
integrate with other parts of the automation system
- Onboard universal encoder input is able to connect to
incremental, SinCos, Hiperface, EnDAT and SSI encoders as
standard
- The drive features a safe torque off input which disables the
output stage of the drive with a high degree of security.
This reduces the cost of complying with machine safety standards
such as EN954 Cat 3 and enables the drive to integrate easily with
the machine safety system
- Designed to operate with NT, XV or FM motor lines.
Whatever your need Control Techniques can provide a solution to
meet your cost and performance criteria.
