Schneider Electric: MDrive® Plus CANopen (NEMA 14)

Presentation

The MDrive® Plus with CANopen interface is a 1.8° 2-phase stepper motor with on-board controller, drive electronics and optional encoder.

IMS CANopen firmware is provided for MDrive Plus CANopen products, in addition to CANopen Tester GUI software for interface with the MD-CC500-000 CANopen dongle.

MDrive Plus CANopen products support CiA DS301 and DSP402 Device Profile for Drives and Motion Control.

Application areas

The MDrive Plus with CANopen interface is ideal for machine builders who want an optimized motor with on-board electronics. The integrated electronics of the MDrive Plus with CANopen interface reduces the potential for problems due to electrical noise by eliminating the cable between motor and drive.

These compact, powerful and cost effective motion control solutions deliver unsurpassed smoothness and performance that will reduce system cost, design and assembly time for a large range of 2-phase stepper motor applications.
