QuickSilver has added a CANopen option to its OEM servo motor controller. CANopen may be configured for peer-to-peer, master or slave. This allows the controllers to share I/O and registers with other CANopen enabled SilverDust™ controllers or 3rd party CANopen devices (i.e. I/O blocks, encoders, PLCs…). For a multiaxis system, connect several IG-Js, make one […]

Servo Motors by B&R
The dynamics of a system can generally be characterized based on two values: the available motor torque and the moment of inertia for the power transmission system. The later of the two consists of the moment of inertia of both the motor and the load and is an important measurement of the system’s dynamics. Lower […]
