Product Description:

The SM 18/60-GC inverter encompasses advanced motor control features with customizable drive parameters that define its maximum RPM in automatic mode. This flexible configuration capability allows for precise speed control adaptable to various industrial applications and specific operational requirements.

Position control accuracy is achieved through the inverter's proportional gain controller, which accepts values from 0 to 100000. This wide range of gain factors enables fine-tuning of the position control loop, ensuring precise movement and positioning in automated systems. The inverter incorporates sophisticated torque management features, including adjustable torque limit values for automatic mode and a dedicated torque filter frequency setting. These parameters work in conjunction with the damping factor to provide stable and precise torque control, reducing oscillations and improving overall system stability.

Motion control precision is further enhanced through the inverter's comprehensive error monitoring system. The device tracks both static position errors and maximum lag errors relative to motor speed, ensuring accurate position maintenance and movement coordination in dynamic applications. Safety and protection features are integral to the SM 18/60-GC's design, with active overtemperature protection safeguarding the system against thermal stress. This protection mechanism continuously monitors operating temperatures and activates when necessary to prevent damage to the inverter and connected components. The velocity limit values feature provides controlled braking functionality, automatically engaging the brake at specified speeds. This capability, combined with the home position offset parameter, enables precise position control and reliable return-to-home operations in automated systems. The device's comprehensive parameter set includes specialized filters and dampening controls that work together to optimize torque signal processing. These features enable smooth operation and precise control, particularly in applications requiring exact torque management and position accuracy.
