Product Details

This trainer is designed to teach the principles of high-precision motion control using an industrial servo motor system integrated with a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). It provides a practical platform for students to program and execute complex positioning tasks, utilizing various feedback and control modes common in advanced automation and robotics. The system features a servo motor and driver that precisely control a ball screw mechanism, enabling linear movement over a 400 mm travel distance. It incorporates multiple control methods, including pulse positioning, Z-phase homing, and input from a 2-bit BCD dial switch for preset positioning. Three proximity sensors provide feedback, and the system includes industrial controls like start/stop, forward/reverse, and an emergency stop. The setup is controlled by a Siemens S7-200 PLC, with all I/O accessible via safety sockets for hands-on wiring. Its primary applications are in mechatronics, industrial engineering, and automation technology education. The key benefit is the hands-on experience it provides with a high-performance servo system, allowing students to understand closed-loop control, develop and debug motion control programs, and grasp the critical role of precision positioning in applications like CNC machinery and robotic arms.
