Application / Programming Modules
SM-APPLICATIONS
The SM-Applications module transforms your Unidrive SP drive into
a powerful automation controller that adds PLC functionality and can
connect to devices via our drive-to-drive network CTNet. This gives you all of the benefits of a fully distributed control system including
better performance, reduced cost and smaller electrical panel sizes.
Performance - The SM-Applications module contains it's
own high performance microprocessor, leaving the drives own processor to give you the best possible motor performance. It
contains 384K of user program memory, meaning that you are never likely
to be limited by the program size or processing power of the module.
Easy Powerful Configuration - The PLC functionality is programmed using
SyPTPro (System Programming Tool) allowing you to tackle automation problems
from simple start and stop sequencing to more complex machine and motion
control applications. The device is programmed within an IEC61131-3 enviornment
with your choice of 3 languages; Ladder Logic, Function Blocks, and text
based programming. SyPTPro provides a suite of diagnostic and debugging
features for maintenance and to help you to get your solution into service
faster.
Real Time Control - SM-Applications module gives you
real-time access to all of the drives parameters plus access to data from I/O or other drives. The module uses a high-speed multi-tasking operating
system with task update times as low as 250µs. Tasks are fully synchronized
to the drives own control loop to give you the best possible performance
for drive control and motion.
Inputs/Outputs - The module has two digital inputs and
two digital outputs for high-speed I/O operations such as position capture or actuator firing. The module also features an
optically isolated RS485 port, supporting standard protocols such as; Modbus
for connection to external devices like Operator Interface panels, or CTSync
which is a protocol used for synchronous communication between drives. SM-APPLICATIONS
LITE
The SM-Applications Lite module is designed to solve your automation requirements
where intelligence is needed on a standalone drive or a drive connected
to a centralized controller via I/O or Fieldbus.
The Module provides many of the same functions of SM-Applications but
may be programmed using either SyPTLite or SyPTPro. SM-Applications
Lite with SyPTLite gives you an intermediate level automation solution that is suitable for a wide variety of applications, while SyPTPro
and SM-Applications Lite will allow you to exploit the full power and
performance
of the option module in 'stand-alone' applications.
SM-EZMOTION
The SM-EZMotion is ideal for all of your motion control applications
whether simple or highly complex. Windows based PowerTools
Pro configuration software helps to simplify applications while
maintaining flexibility and functionality.
The module is equipped with four high speed digital inputs and two
digital outputs for external control. Simplify all of your motion applications
by using the built-in High-Speed Capture, Queuing, Profile Summation,
and Program Multi-tasking capabilities. Ease of use defines this multipurpose
motion controller. Take advantage of all its features to quickly solve
these applications:
- Simple Indexing
- Pick and Place
- Flying Shear
- High Speed Labeling
- Phase Synchronization
- Random Infeed Control
- Rotary Knife
- And many more...
See the Motion Control section of this catalog for more detail on PowerTools
Pro Software, which features Motion Made EasyTM programming with Drag
and Drop, Point and Click, and Fill in the Blank.
