CANopen Motion Module

Sept. 13, 2016
The recently released Lexium Motion Module (LMM), an ultra-compact programmable motion controller from Schneider Electric, expands its performance range with the release of a new CANopen version.

The product’s full featured CANopen interface supports CiA DS301: CANopen Application Layer/Communication Profile and DSP402: Device Profile for Drives/Motion Control. For CANopen motion systems with tight space constraints, the unit’s extremely compact size of 2.7x1.4x0.16 inches (68x35x4 mm) is an appropriate solution. To expedite development, a 1-axis Development Board is available. It includes isolated I/O, CAN communications transceivers and locking pluggable connectors. The Development Board is available alone or as part of a complete Starter Kit, which includes a CANopen LMM, 1-axis Development Board, NEMA 17 frame motor with encoder, USB-to-CAN communications converter, and power supply. Complementing the 1.5 Amp LMM, a selection of motors are available. Standard options include rotary stepper motors in NEMA sizes 8 (20 mm), 11 (28 mm), 14 (36 mm) and 17 (42 mm). Custom motor sizes and styles are also available, as are LMMs with alternate power levels and communication platforms.
