Aerotech Automation1 iXL2e Enhanced, Compact Linear Servo Drive with Motion Controller

Compact Linear Drive & Full Motion Controller

Achieve new levels of precision motion and full system control with

the iXL2e compact linear servo motor drive with full motion controller.

The highly integrated iXL2e runs the full Automation1-iSMC motion

controller, offers industry best sub-nanometer levels of position

control for servo motors and stages, connects to other Automation1

drives over HyperWire and connects to other automation devices

over EtherCAT, EtherNet/IPTM, Modbus TCP/IP or a TCP Socket

interface. Multi-axis PSO enables precision control of your industrial

laser or process tool synchronized with your motion trajectory.

The iXL2e includes high-performance linear amplifier technology that

enables low noise and high-precision motor control by eliminating

switching noise and deadtime.

Automation1

The iXL2e is a part of the user-friendly Automation1 motion control

platform, which includes the following:

• Development Software

• Controls

• Motor Drives

• Fiber-Optic HyperWire® Communication Bus

KEY FEATURES:

• Delivers industry leading IN-POSITION STABILITY performance

• Unlocks the full MOTION CONTROL power of our Automation1-iSMC

intelligent software based motion controller

• Features COMPLETE CONFIGURATION & PERFORMANCE capability

of the XL2e linear servo drive

• CONNECT TO THE CONTROLLER using Modbus TCP/IP or TCP Socket

interface

• Allows for up to 12 AXES OF CONTROL when more Automation1 drives

are connected over the HyperWire fiber-optic bus

• Includes PSO, the ULTIMATE IN POSITION BASED CONTROL for

industrial lasers, cameras & more

• Includes SAFE TORQUE OFF (STO) functional safety

Superior Performance, Complete Control

The iXL2e’s performance is superior to other linear amplifier products on

the market. In addition, it comes with the full capability of an Aerotech

motion controller. When deployed to an iXL2e drive, the Automation1-iSMC

motion controller can control up to twelve axes of motion over the

Automation1 HyperWire® communication bus. EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP,

Modbus TCP and a Socket interface enable true full machine and motion

system control with this device. All axes are tightly coordinated with other

axes on the network to deliver contoured motion and a single, simple

machine control architecture.

Extend Your I/O

Configure the Automation1-iSMC with the appropriate industrial ethernet

options and connect additional third-party devices, completing your control

architecture – or simply configure the iXL2e with the onboard IO expansion

option.

Lead The Industry

Lead your industry in performance and capabilities when you integrate the

iXL2e into your machine or system design. The iXL2e has a highly integrated

design which includes high-end component choices for the power amplifier

and control circuits. This enables systems built on the iXL2e to achieve the

most accurate position tracking, the highest level of in-position stability and

the smallest minimum step sizes.
