Linear Drives and Positioners
The new, compact E-861 con-
troller is designed to operate
NEXACT
®
linear drives and
closed-loop positioning sys-
tems using them, simply and
precisely. In perfect harmony
with the mechanics, the E-861
supports both motion modes
of the PiezoWalk
®
stepping
drive: for longer moves, the
stepping mode, and for moves
shorter than typically 7 µm,
the analog mode, which pro-
vides high-dynamics position-
ing with resolutions of less
than 1 nm. The NEXACT
®
drive
design minimizes piezo operat-
ing voltages to 45 V and below.
Flexible Automation
E-861 controllers offer a num-
ber of features to support
automation and handling. For
example, macros can be stored
in non-volatile memory.
A programmable autostart
macro allows stand-alone
operation without external
communication. Upon power-
up, the macro with its internal
command sequence is execut-
ed automatically.
For easy synchronization of
motion with internal or exter-
nal trigger signals, four input
and four output lines are pro-
vided.
Multi-Axis Operation
Up to 16 E-861 controllers can
be networked and controlled
over a single PC interface.
Such daisy chain networks are
flexible, can be extended at
any time and are compatible
with other PI controllers (e.g.
DC servo-motor and stepper
motor controllers).
Easy System Setup,
Comprehensive Software
All parameters can be set
and checked by software.
System setup and configura-
tion is done with the included
PIMikroMove user-interface
software. Interfacing to custom
software is facilitated with
included LabView drivers and
DLLs. With the PI General
Command Set (GCS), system
programming is the same with
all PI controllers, so controlling
a system with a variety of dif-
ferent controllers is possible
without difficulty.
