Product Description:
The 8EI2X2HWD10.0601-1 is a dual-axis servo inverter produced by B&R Automation within the 8EI Servo Drives series. This model belongs to the ACOPOS P3 8EI servo drive product line and regulates the torque, speed, and position of brushless motors in tightly synchronized industrial machinery. Its compact design combines power electronics with encoder-based feedback for coordinated motion control. The drive can interface directly with real-time machine networks, allowing commands and operating data to be exchanged with the machine controller. These capabilities support applications such as packaging equipment, assembly systems, and material-handling machinery that require precise control of two motor axes.
The unit is a 2-axis module that operates from a three-phase input of 3 × 200–480 VAC, allowing it to be used with a broad range of industrial power systems. Each axis supplies a continuous current of 2.2 Aeff for sustained motion tasks within the inverter’s thermal limits. Functional safety is provided by a hardwired STO safety technology with encoder interface, which removes drive power in less than one millisecond when the safety circuit opens. This safety function allows motor torque to be disabled through dedicated wiring rather than relying solely on network communication. An internal braking resistor dissipates regenerated energy inside the chassis, eliminating the need for an external braking resistor. Local energy dissipation also reduces the amount of external wiring required for handling energy returned during motor deceleration.
The housing is designed for wall mounting, providing a secure installation arrangement inside an electrical cabinet. A front cover protects the live terminals while still allowing access when wiring or inspection is required. Signal and power conductors connect through a Connector Set 1 (1-row) header. The layout does not include a second two-row connector, which keeps the wiring interface limited to the supplied header and helps maintain the narrow housing profile. The standard configuration does not include plug-in expansion cards or other module-specific hardware. Its integrated power stage, feedback support, safety circuit, and braking resistor allow the inverter to control both axes without separate modules for these functions.
