ION® Digital Drives are compact, fully enclosed modules that provide high performance motion control, network connectivity and power amplification. Two power output levels are available, the ION 500 is rated at 500 Watts and the ION 3000 is rated at 3000 Watts. Various ION models are available to drive DC brush, brushless DC, and step motors.
 ION Digital Drives
High Power Density
Using advanced MOSFETs and surface
mount technology, ION provides very high
power density in a rugged, flexible form factor.
It performs profile generation, servo
compensation, stall detection, field oriented
control, digital torque control and many
other motion control functions. ION drives
provide CANBus or serial communications
and are ideal for for medical, scientific,
semiconductor, automation, industrial and
robotic applications. User selectable profiling
modes include S-curve, trapezoidal, velocity
contouring and electronic gearing.
Advanced Motion Control Feature Set
The ION Digital Drive accepts commands over the network such as position, velocity, acceleration and jerk from the host and generates a corresponding trajectory on-the-fly. Servo loop compensation utilizes a full 32-bit position error, PID with velocity and acceleration feedforward, integration limit and dual bi-quad filters for sophisticated control of complex loads. Additional features include limit switches, breakpoints, secondary encoder input for masterslave and electronic gearing applications, as well as general purpose inputs and outputs.
Built on the Magellan® Motion Processor
ION’s Magellan Motion Processor provides a powerful instruction set to initialize and control the motion application, monitor performance,
and synchronize overall drive behavior. Working with the ION Digital Drive, PMD’s powerful Pro-Motion® GUI makes it easy to graph and analyze system performance, while C-Motion® and VB-Motion® allow you to develop your own application using C/C++ or Visual BASIC.
