A new family member for COMPAX Digital servo controllers in the

existing COMPAX series (capacity range 2.5 kVA to 35 kVA) are now joined by a unit with a capacity of 1kVA – the COMPAX 1000SL.

Individual electronicallycontrolled drives create flexibility ...

With classical solutions in which multiple operations are derived from a central shaft by means of mechanical components, the requirement for more flexible and cost-effective machines becomes increasingly difficult to satisfy. Electronic servo controls offer a decentralisedsolution to this problem, and the replacement of rigid mechanical components such as gears,shafts and cams by individual

electronically-controlled drives leads to greater functional capability.

Extending the low-power range

COMPAX 1000SL now offers the opportunity to fully utilise digital servodrive technology in special applications, including the lowpower range.

High functionality

High performance automation functions such as dynamic interlinking of cam functions and precise axis synchronisation are combined with a high degree of system integration using all common field buses.

Compact design

The compact servo controller can be connected directly to singlephase mains supplies with rated voltages up to 230V, thus making the compact package particularly suitable for incorporation within the installation or machine.

Best price-performance ratio

An application-specific ASIC, which integrates most of the electronic functions, offers a cost-effective, flexible and powerful hardware platform.

When combined with competitivelypriced, high-performance synchronous servomotors with holding torques up to 1.5 Nm, the COMPAX 1000SL represents a particularly powerful package.

The system is complemented by a compatible range of mechanical drive components.
