Digital Servo Drive ARGON
Argon is Granite Device's flag ship precision servo motor drive/controller for AC
and DC servomotors and Linear motors. Possible control methods include position,
velocity and torque modes. Built-in motion profiler
enables simple point-to-point moves as well as continuous synchronous
motion tracking.
State of the Art features
Control features
- Input setpoint signals including pulse and direction, quadrature, analog and PWM
- Internal axis homing function with sensorless hard-stop operating mode
- Multidrop capable realtime SimpleMotion V2 field bus for setup & control
Protections & Ruggedness features
Argons are built to last – and we have faith in their longevity.
If your Argon break within 24 months of use, we will simply repair or replace
them free of charge (details).
- 4-way Safe torque off with motor braking
- Prevent machine damage via I²t (motor temperature modelling), blocked motion and tracking error detection
- Industry leading ruggedness: over current, short circuit, over
voltage, under voltage and over temperature protections, internally
fused, data/communication error detection
- CE compliance
State of the Art hardware
Hardware of Argon has been designed from ground up without any
historical payload. The main character of the construction is the unique
dual CPU architecture where CPUs are connected together with single
isolated link. This not only costs less but also yields unforeseen
flexibility and reliability. The I/O side ARM CPU comes with open source
firmware allowing implementing unlimited stand-alone user programs and
functions directly inside the drive.
