Expanded DC motor drive lineup offers performance with efficiency and flexibility

The CompletePower Plus Universal Drive combined with ElectroCraft CompleteArchitect configuration software delivers performance, efficiency and flexibility at the next level, employing state-of-the-art digital drive technology coupled with an intuitive and highly configurable user interface. Ideal for an extensive range of applications, the Universal Drive provides multiple control methods incorporating analog velocity, analog torque, or step and direction positioning, and is fully compatible with a broad range of motor architectures, including Brushless DC motors, PMDC Brush Motors, Open-Loop and Closed-Loop Stepper Motors. There are four standard capacities in the model lineup, supporting 12 to 80VDC motor windings and giving up to 24A continuous and 60A peak output current, while customised versions are also provided to satisfy large volume OEM demands.

For applications that need more advanced control capabilities, the company's PRO Series is ideal. The series drives include a fully programmable motion controller with built-in networking and are offered in a mixture of hardware configurations incorporating stand-alone, PCB mount or as part of an integrated motor drive solution. Whether controlling a single drive or multiple drives in a networked system, configuration and programming is simple using the company’s MotionPRO Suite software.

“ElectroCraft provides customers with some of the most powerful, flexible and easy to use DC motor drives available in the marketplace today”, said Scott Rohlfs, global director of Product Marketing. “Combined with our extensive range of motors, gear motors and linear actuators, ElectroCraft offers complete motion solutions for virtually any fractional horsepower application.”
