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.
