Features:
- Four User-definable Inputs
- Complex Motion Profiling Mode
- High Level Programming Commands
- Program Separate Acceleration and Deceleration Times
The Parker/Model 500 is a stand-alone single-axis indexer that provides step and direction outputs directly compatible with all stepper drives and step and direction input brushless servo drives. With 13 inputs and 8 outputs, this indexer offers PLC communication and thumbwheel input functionality. The Model 500 accepts both incremental and absolute encoder feedback for position maintenance. The Model 500 is compatible with Compumotor's -E Series incremental encoders and the AR-C and AL-C absolute encoders.
The Model 500 provides the following features:
- Four registration inputs (user-definable)
- Calculation delay times for motion as low as 500 µs are possible
- High level programming commands such as IF/THEN/ELSE, WHILE, REPEAT/UNTIL, GOTO, and GOSUB are available.
- An output can be configured to provide pulse and direction to a second axis to control a velocity and distance.
The Model 500-FOL option provides position and velocity following capabilities.The indexer can follow the absolute or incremental encoder input.
The Model 500-FOL provides the following additional features:
- Controls a speed based on a ratio of a primary axis speed
- Makes preset moves at a velocity ratio of a primary axis
- Synchronizes speed to a primary axis based on registration marks on material
- Changes following ratio and other functions based on the encoder position of a primary axis (Cam Following)
- Secondary axis accelerates to a ratio of the primary axis based on input from the encoder on the primary axis
The 71-007740-01 Parker Power Board may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
