dryve Test motor control

Using the intuitive browser interface, you can set the travel mode, positions, accelerations, speed and pause times of your linear axis in just a few minutes without any prior knowledge.

Test the user interface of the motor controller here using a simulated linear axis. Just as in this simulation, your input is transferred directly when using the real control system. There is no need for a separate transfer.

It's that simple: Under Driving profiles, you can configure up to eight lines and transfer the control system to the linear axis with one click. In the Mode field, use HOM to set the zero point or ABS to set the absolute position for the movement on the linear axis. Select the target by entering the position on the axis or by using the Teach function. Enter values for acceleration, speed and deceleration and, if necessary, a pause time. Under Next set, specify the number of the next travel profile.

drylin® D1 dryve Tutorials 

1. Voltage supply
Logic and load supply are separated in order to realise safety shutdowns.
The logic supply has 12-24 V and the load supply has 12-48 V.

2. Digital inputs
Movements can be selected, started and stopped at the 10 predefined inputs. With two limit switches and an enable input, the motor control unit can also perform safety functions.

3. Digital outputs
Information from the motor control unit can be called up at the 5 predefined outputs. The motor control unit reports whether it is ready or is currently executing a movement, whether it is referenced or whether warnings or errors are present.

4. Analogue inputs
Two analogue inputs can be used to read in absolute position information from a linear axis, for example, or to specify speeds or positions. Using an "electronic hand wheel", a linear axis can be moved without changing the parameters.

5. motor & Brake connection
DC, 3-phase EC and 2-phase stepper motors can be connected to the motor connection. A motor brake connection is also integrated in this connector.

6. rotary encoder
A rotary encoder is required to optimise motor control and determine an exact position. The motor control unit is designed for many different types of rotary encoder with a voltage supply of 5 V.

The control system in detail

Ready to use immediately

The dryve motor control unit can either be connected to your network or you can connect directly to the control unit (PC or PLC) via a network cable. You can then start the control system directly in the browser without software installation.

This allows adjustments to be carried out in one minute.

You need one dryve motor control unit per linear axis.

Easy control

You can use the simple intuitive user interface to parameterise travels, position, speed and operating time of your linear axis even as an amateur.

Constantly repeating movements, the so-called "loops", can be set in just a few seconds. A teach function enables position settings to be made with just one mouse click.<br /><br />

Industry standards

With standardised communication protocols such as CANopen or Modbus TCP as gateway, it is easy to connect the system to industrial controllers such as Siemens S7 or Beckhoff.

The ten digital inputs and outputs enable extremely easy communication with industrial controllers but also with low-price open-source modules such as Arduino or Raspberry Pi.

Powerful technology

dryve supports DC, EC and stepper motors both in open loop and closed loop technology.

The high supply voltage of up to 48V ensures high motor speeds. The strong nominal current of 7A and the high peak current of 20A results in powerful and dynamic movements.
