Aerotech, Inc. Networked Panel-Mount Piezo Drive Ensemble Qle

Design Features Networkable with any Ensemble drive to control up to ten axes of piezo and/or servomotor stages Single or multi-axis Position Synchronized Output (PSO) for real-time triggering of events Available with high-precision (to 20-bit) sensor resolution for capacitive sensor feedback Thermally-stable feedback circuit design option Configurable analog input (to 18-bit) for external feedback sensor integration or command generation Advanced control features such as learning control, harmonic cancellation and command shaping improve tracking error and overall process throughput Ethernet and USB 2.0 communication interfaces Advanced Windows®-based remote diagnostics, tuning, and programming interface software Program in AeroBasic™ using Aerotech's IDE or create custom remote interfaces with Microsoft .NET including C#, VB.NET, C++/CLI, LabVIEW®, MATLAB®, EPICS, or TANGO OEM versions available The Ensemble QL/QLe™ panel-mount nanopositioning piezo drive family is designed for seamless use with the Ensemble family of drives and controllers. The QL/QLe connects to any Ensemble controller network enabling coordinated motion between piezo stages and servo axes at much higher rates than other controller or drive products. This power, versatility, and affordability make the Ensemble QL/QLe drives ideal for applications ranging from the most demanding fundamental scientific research to advanced OEM machine systems. Featuring a dual-core 456 MHz, double-precision, floating-point DSP, the QL/QLe drives provide extreme processing power over a wide variety of applications including point-to-point motion, linear and circular interpolation, multi-axis error correction, and autofocusing. High-speed interrupts and data logging capabilities provide a real-time link to external systems. The QL/QLe also offers high-speed positioning latching capability and single-axis (QL) or multi-axis (QLe) position synchronized output (PSO) for generation of pulses based on actual position feedback in applications ranging from laser firing to data acquisition system triggering.
