Product Description

Okuma is an international engineering firm that is known for its motion control products.

The E4809-045-019-C SDU-600-W is a high-quality spindle drive unit that has been designed for controlling the position and speed in industrial automation systems. The system has been specifically designed for controlling the speed and position in the CNC machining centers and lathe machines. This model is provided with a powerful feedback loop that can monitor the speed and position at every instant. The system is provided with a tach generator for feedback purposes for the spindle drive’s motor. For the spindle itself, an optical pulse generator is used for providing real-time feedback on the position and speed. This spindle drive unit is used with the OSP 5000 system that is used in the automation of lathe machines, CNC machining centers, etc.

The E4809-045-019-C SDU-600-W is similar to the LDU 600 axis because both these systems are thyristor-based. Thyristor-based systems control the rotational speed of the DC motor by controlling the firing angle of the thyristors. This spindle drive unit has been primarily designed for the 5000L type CNC control. The system is safe to use and provides an alarm in case of malfunction. A generic alarm is sounded for diagnostics purposes if the control is provided with an alarm signal. The alarm signal is in turn fed to the CRT. This alarm type is designated as a 'level A' alarm and is provided with the CNC lathes as well as machining centers. The MB velocity command in the system is used to feed the SVP or the ECP. A pulse generator is also installed in the system for controlling the position and speed.
