KeDrive D3

Compactness

With a typical configuration of 6 axes including auxiliary power supply, KeDrive D3 as the benchmark for compactness saves approx. 40 % space in the control cabinet compared to standard multi-axis systems on the market and an additional 60 % compared to the use of single axes. Two decisive points for this are:

• Supply unit with integrated 24 V power supply unit
• Three-axis controller

Safety

The safety technology is an integral component. High safety levels, great functionality and response times of 2 ms allow it to be used in all applications:

• Standard
  STO to SIL3, PL e, KAT 4, SBC to SIL2, PL d, KAT 3
• Option
  Safe motion functions such as SS1, SS2, SOS, SLS, SLI, SDI and SLP to SIL3, PL e, KAT 4
• Safety PLC
  The Safety PLC integrated in the drive controller offers maximum flexibility.

Simplicity

Simple installation thanks to the reduced number of components required and time-saving contacting via a simple connection system.
One-cable technology: In addition to the classic encoder systems, KeDrive D3 also supports single-cable technology. This further simplifies installation, as the encoder information and motor temperature are transmitted via the motor cable.

Dynamics and precision

KeDrive D3 has a range of functions aimed at increasing the dynamics and precision of machines.

• Computing power
  Powerful drive ASIC with 32-bit microcontroller and floating-point unit per axis controller › Three-axis controller without limiting computing power.
• Control functions
  Compensation of encoder errors, errors in the mechanical transmission path, friction and cogging torques, suppression of resonance frequencies, predictive feedforward control structure with pico-interpolation
• Autotuning
  Identification of machine mechanics and automatic parameterization of control structures and parameters
