ABB now with cost-effective simplicity

By December 10, 2018 5:36 pm IST

ABB is integrating positioning control within its ACS880 variable speed drives to allow operators to meet motion system demands without the need of an external controller. Embedding position control inside the drive minimizes machine engineering and installation work, removes the need for additional equipment and lowers costs.

Traditionally, separate devices are used for position control and speed and torque. Position control is implemented using a motion controller with specific tools, user interfaces and programming languages. The power range of these separate controllers are typically limited to under 20 kilowatts (kW) depending on the manufacturer.

The ACS880 with embedded position control offers an alternative solution and a power range up to 5600 kW. It features several pre-programmed functions, including homing modes, absolute and relative positioning, profiled positioning, position synchronising and fast position latching. The ACS880 also offers encoderless position capabilities and regenerative solutions.
