Perform high-precision positioning
and synchronization, simply using an
AC drive. With the Integrated Motion
Controller (IMC) functionality, the
VLT® AutomationDrive FC 302
replaces more complex positioning
and synchronization controllers, to save
time and cost.
Positioning and synchronization
operations are typically performed
using a servo drive or a motion
controller. However, many of these
applications do not actually require
the dynamic performance available
from a servo drive.
Therefore the FC 302 with IMC is a cost-
effective, high-performance alternative
to servo in single-axis positioning and
synchronizing applications.
Use IMC for many applications that
have been solved with servo drives
until now, such as:
n
Rotary tables
n
Cutting machines
n
Packaging machines
Encoder-
free
to save costs and
reduce complexity
Use FC 302 to run an induction or PM
motor with
or without motor feed-
back
– with no need for additional
hardware. With sensorless control (no
motor feedback) best performance is
achieved with a PM motor. The perfor-
mance of sensorless control of induc-
tion motors is however sufficient for
less-demanding applications.
With IMC you
save time and cost
:
n
No advanced programming and
fewer components means fewer
hours needed for engineering,
installation and commissioning
n
Save further cost for a feedback
device, cabling and installation by
using sensorless control
n
To save cost for a home sensor and
cabling, use the “homing on torque
limit” function
The IMC solution provides
easy and safe set-up
:
n
Configuration via parameters, with
no advanced programming required.
Reduced complexity will minimize
the risk of errors
n
To add more functionality, use the
Smart Logic Controller (SLC), which
is fully compatible with IMC
n
To realign the home position
during operation, use the “home
synchronizing” function
