ABB RET670 1MRK004816-AC

The RET670 1MRK004816-AC Ethernet Servo Drive series offers single-phase options with outputs up to 9 A. MicroFlex e150 drives operate in real-time over EtherCAT and are compatible with EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP and TCP/IP protocols, providing a “universal” drive platform that can be used in many different ways to suit different customers and applications – from networked systems hosted by PLCs or other devices, to motion control systems with distributed intelligence. This provides a “universal” drive platform that can be used in many different ways to suit different customers and applications – from networked systems hosted by PLCs or other devices to motion control systems with distributed intelligence. The drives are intelligent, with embedded programming capabilities compatible with ABB’s motion control language, Mint.

The RET670 1MRK004816-AC functionality allows the drive to be used independently for single-axis or distributed intelligent motion control applications ranging from performing simple movements to complex motion tasks such as flying shears or cam motion profiling. Built-in I/O, including fast latching inputs for registration applications, is standard to support such application configurations. As standard, the drive also offers flexible ‘universal’ encoder interface functionality for a variety of uses. The drive can be connected to dual encoders – an incremental encoder and a serial basic encoder such as EnDat 2.2, SSI or BiSS.
