With the additional digital inputs and outputs, further signals from external proximity switches and limit switches, pulsers, and control devices can be detected, and actions can be initiated or they can be sent to signal units.
The intelligent AG25 actuator delivers automatic adjustment of formats, end stops, tools, and many other comparable positioning features. Areas of application include any location where positioning problems have to be solved peripherally in a machine or system with very little space and low weight.
The AG25 can be integrated flexibly into various machine designs. No other materials are required for installation. The programming work and the setup and adjustment times are minimal, enabling fast activation. The AG25 has a hollow stainless steel shaft with a diameter of 14 millimeters. The actuator is fitted directly to feed and auxiliary axes.
Integration into various safety concepts is very simple with the AG25 as the power supply for the control and power electronics is separated. A significant burden is lifted from the higher-level PLC by the integrated control electronics. Monitoring functions are already integrated into the drive for temperature, power, and lag errors. The charging status of the battery is monitored continuously, so that the need for a change of battery, a job thay can be carried out by the user, is identified and reported at an early stage. The battery buffering of the magnetic measurement system enables deviations in position to be identified even when there is no power, and there is no need for repeated calibration.
