MotiFlex™ e100

e100 Ethernet Motion Products

MotiFlex™ e100 is part of the e100 real-time Ethernet solution from Baldor. System architecture is simplified by a single, highly configurable drive and motion control platform.

Universal Feedback Support

Supported feedback devices range from simple cost effective encoders, through absolute multi-turn devices such as EnDat 2.2 to robust and vibration tolerant resolvers.

Energy Efficient DC Sharing

MotiFlex drives include the ability to share DC energy as standard. Each drive can convert power from the AC supply to share with other drives, eliminating the need for separate power supplies. Sharing energy also removes the need for regeneration resistors making the application more energy efficient. Energy is no longer wasted as heat.

Ethernet Cost Savings and Performance

MotiFlex™ e100 integrates the advanced capabilities of real-time Ethernet POWERLINK to provide superior performance, network integration and costs savings. MotiFlex e100 is compatible with the NextMove e100 motion controller to provide a fully integrated machine control solution using real-time Ethernet.

Powerful Software Tools - Supplied FREE of Charge

Mint WorkBench for Windows, provides full auto-tuning, wizards that simplify ‘expert tasks’ and advanced diagnostics including 6 channel digital oscilloscope. Extended capabilities include programmable notch filters to reduce or remove resonance in a machine.

Modular Expansion Options

Two option card slots allow the MotiFlex to be tailored for different applications. Options include resolver feedback, additional I/O including analog and digital, Fieldbus interfaces and Mint programming options for both dual and multi-axis applications.

Mint Lite Programming

MotiFlex and MicroFlex e100 drives now come with Mint Lite programming as standard. Mint Lite adds the capability of creating stand-alone intelligent drive applications for simple single axis motion, creating customised PLC control of drive motion, or to handle local application tasks within and e100 system.

MicroFlex e100 Overview

NextMove e100

MotiFlex e100 is part of the e100 motion family including multi-axis machine controller, NextMove e100 and range of single phase servo drives, MicroFlex e100 which operate over Ethernet POWERLINK.

NextMove e100 provides control of up to 16 coordinated axes of motion and many more non-coordinated axes. Axes can be split amongst the three phase MotiFlex e100 drives and single phase MicroFlex e100 drives to suit the application requirements.
