The IO SmartHub is companion product that provides control and both analog and digital feedback for ORCA™ Series motors. This compact, DIN rail mountable device connects directly to ORCA Series motors via the RJ45 terminated data cable and integrates easily with industrial control systems using 4-20 mA current loop or digital trigger control. With a power range of 5-30V DC it's compatible with a wide variety of systems.
The IO SmartHub controls the ORCA motors in three modes: force control, position control, and kinematic control, configurable through Modbus or IrisControls GUI. While actively connected to an ORCA motor, the IO SmartHub will continuously report force and position sensor data through the dual 4-20 mA current outputs. With simple configurations the IO SmartHub working alongside an ORCA motor can be an optimal replacement for existing PLC controlled pneumatic systems.
