Universal Motion Controller and Driver
MKS/NewportRequest Info
MKS Instruments Inc. has announced the release of the Newport XPS-D Universal Motion Controller and Driver, a high-performance, eight-axis motion controller.
Equipped with a XPS-DRV11 universal digital driver card, the XPS-D is capable of controlling a wide variety of motor types, including stepper, direct current, brushless and direct-drive motors. The XPS-D controller is compatible with all Newport electromechanical stages and provides backward-compatibility to the Newport XPS-Q driver cards and application program interface.
The XPS-D controller offers a wide variety of motion modes, from basic to complex position-velocity-time trajectories, and features brake management for direct current and brushless motors. Its new digital design allows for higher precision, minimum incremental motion down to 1 nm and a faster servo rate up to 20 kHz. The controller’s power has been increased to 750 W with a 50 percent larger power supply, allowing it to drive more powerful motors and support higher speeds. It also features 40 digital inputs and 40 digital outputs to read external switches, control relays or other digital devices, and has eight analog inputs and eight analog outputs to precisely monitor or control any motion axis.
