Position Control System

Project: April 2001 – June 2002 (15 months)

Description

Key responsible for the design and development of a family of motion controllers within low power range (50 to 400 watts). The decentralized intelligent motion control system with integrated motor amplifier and CANopen interface can be used as an integrated or external control for motors with or without brushes. Developed for positioning and speed control, the motion controller offers various positioning modes, as well as homing modes and manual modes. Operation takes place via CANopen device profile CiA DSP-402 or via programmable digital inputs/outputs. In addition to the development activities, customer support and on-site commissioning were also part of my task spectrum.
