The Kinetix 5500 servo drive joins the Kinetix 350 and Kinetix 6500 drives to provide users with more options to match motion control needs. Integrated motion control on EtherNet/IP eliminates the need for a dedicated motion network. Additionally, the Kinetix VPL motor’s new winding technology and DSL encoder, connected with the smart-cable technology, allows power transmission and feedback communication to and from the drive to take place on a single cable. The drive also has the ability to control both servo and induction motors. The system does not require discrete power rail or additional accessories, so machines can be scaled as needed while still providing 125 µs loop closure for maximum performance. Suggested applications include packaging, material handling or converting systems with more than six axes.
