Key Features & Technical Specifications

The S700 Servo Drives are engineered with a host of advanced features that enhance both performance and usability.

Wide Power Range and Performance

• Current Capabilities:
  The S700 series is available in various configurations, supporting continuous output currents from approximately 1.5 A to 72 A RMS per phase. This wide range ensures compatibility with both small-scale and high-power servo motors, making the drives suitable for a broad spectrum of applications.
• Peak Current Handling:
  The drives can handle peak currents up to 3–4 times the continuous rating for short bursts, providing the extra torque necessary for rapid acceleration or overcoming transient load spikes.
• Dynamic Performance:
  Featuring high-speed current, velocity, and position control loops, the S700 drives ensure rapid response times and precise control, which is crucial for maintaining accuracy during high-speed operations or complex multi-axis movements.

Advanced Motion Control and Safety

• Programmable Motion Logic:
  With an integrated IEC 61131-3 macro programming environment, these drives allow for the customization of motion control algorithms. This flexibility empowers engineers to tailor drive behavior to specific application requirements without relying on external controllers.
• Built-In Safety Functions:
  Safety is paramount in industrial automation. The S700 drives include a two-channel Safe Torque Off (STO) function that quickly disables output torque during emergency conditions. This feature adheres to international safety standards (such as Performance Level d, SIL CL 2), ensuring both personnel safety and equipment protection.

Connectivity and Communication

• Fieldbus Integration:
  S700 drives come with onboard interfaces for popular industrial communication protocols. Standard options include EtherCAT® and CANopen, while additional modules can support PROFINET, DeviceNet, PROFIBUS DP, SERCOS II, and even RS232. This versatility enables seamless integration into modern and legacy control systems alike.
• Single-Cable Feedback Solutions:
  For streamlined installation, these drives support single-cable feedback options, such as using Kollmorgen’s SFD3 or the Hiperface DSL protocol, reducing wiring complexity and enhancing system reliability.

Power Supply and Internal Hardware

• Broad Voltage Compatibility:
  Designed for global applications, the S700 drives operate from 110 VAC to 480 VAC, whether in single-phase or three-phase configurations. Internally, the drives support a wide DC bus voltage range, accommodating variations in supply and ensuring stable performance under fluctuating load conditions.
• Dynamic Braking and Thermal Management:
  Each unit features a dynamic braking circuit that dissipates regenerative energy safely, coupled with built-in EMC filters and cooling systems (such as integrated fans on higher-power models) to maintain optimal operating temperatures.

Feedback and I/O Capabilities

• Versatile Feedback Options:
  The drives support multiple types of feedback devices, including incremental and absolute encoders, resolvers, and even Hall sensors for commutation. This ensures compatibility with a wide array of servo motors and facilitates high-precision control.
• Configurable I/O:
  A set of configurable digital and analog inputs and outputs allow the drive to manage auxiliary functions such as limit switches, emergency stops, and other control signals directly, contributing to a more integrated and compact control system.

Autotuning and Performance Optimization

• Simplified Commissioning:
  The S700 series features intelligent autotuning capabilities that automatically adjust PID parameters and feedforward settings based on a brief test movement of the motor. This reduces setup time and ensures that the drive operates at its optimum performance from the outset.
• Cogging Suppression:
  With built-in cogging suppression algorithms, the drives can minimize the minor jerks or vibrations caused by motor cogging. This is particularly beneficial in applications demanding ultra-smooth operation, such as high-precision machining or high-speed packaging.

Environmental and Mechanical Specifications

• Robust Design:
  Housed in durable metal enclosures, the S700 drives are designed for cabinet mounting. They come in diverse sizes to accommodate different power ratings—from compact models for lower currents to larger units for high-power applications.
• Operating Conditions:
  These drives are designed to function reliably in industrial environments with ambient temperatures typically ranging from 0°C to 40°C (up to 45°C with derating). They are built to withstand moderate vibrations and dust, ensuring long-term durability in factory settings.
• Certifications:
  The S700 drives are compliant with international standards, featuring certifications such as CE and UL, and have undergone rigorous testing for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and safety.
