Product Description:

Kollmorgen SMC-401-PS Motion Stepper Drive are a strong and reliable motion driver made for precise stepper motor operation. The drive can be used for many different types of automation tasks. The SMC drive has advanced features that make sure it works correctly and works with motion control systems without any problems.

The SMC-401-PS motion stepper drive has four general-purpose programmable inputs that can be used for functions like home end limits and emergency stops that improve control. The drive also has an RS-232C serial interface for easy system integration. The design utilizes 2200 Ω series resistors and optically isolated inputs to prevent electrical interference that provides stability and dependability. The drive can operate with a DC input supply voltage of 16–32 volts, or up to 45 volts when needed that makes it flexible to meet the needs of industrial automation. Its pulse output can handle up to 100 mA, and pulse rates can be changed from 20 to 10,000 per second. Ramping adjustments are easily made on the back panel that makes the SMC drive a flexible and durable choice for even the most demanding automation tasks.

The SMC-401-PS drive is made to work in temperatures between 0°C and 50°C, with a maximum baseplate temperature of 60°C. The drive works with a 115/230 VAC power source at 50 or 60 Hz. The drive can handle 4A of electricity, and when it's not in use, it uses less than 30 mA. Its power source is well-filtered and doesn't need to be controlled. Its small size and efficient design make it easy to use in a variety of situations. The product comes with a one-year warranty for replacement, and it can be shipped anywhere in the world to meet your operating needs.

Frequently Asked Questions about SMC-401-PS:

Q: Why does SMC-401-PS have optically isolated inputs?

A: Optically isolated inputs provide electrical isolation and enhance safety. They prevent signal interference and protect the drive from voltage spikes.

Q: Does SMC-401-PS support adjustable pulse rates?

A: Yes, the pulse rate is switch-selectable from 20 to 10,000 pps. This flexibility allows precise motion control customization.

Q: Why does SMC-401-PS use an emergency stop feature?

A: The emergency stop ensures safety during operations. It halts motion immediately to prevent potential damage or operational issues.

Q: How does SMC-401-PS handle position capture functionality?

A: Position capture allows the drive to record exact positions. This feature is essential for tasks requiring precise location tracking.

Q: Do SMC-401-PS inputs require voltage regulation?

A: No, the input supply does not need regulation. The device operates reliably with a well-filtered DC voltage of 16–32 volts.
