The EtherCAT plug-in modules are electronically-based on the well-known EtherCAT I/O system, while their design allows them to be directly attached to a circuit board. The circuit board is an application-specific signal distribution board that distributes signals and power to individual application-specific plug con-nectors in order to connect the controller to machine modules as required. Elaborate manual wiring of single wires, common in conventional control cabinet construction, is replaced.

In combination with industrially manufactured cable harnesses, the signal distribution board – a circuit board specially designed by the user or by Beckhoff – distributes signals and power supply between the EtherCAT plug-in modules and the machine. The unit costs are lowered through the automated production of circuit boards and cable harnesses. The risk of incorrect wiring is reduced to a minimum, since the EtherCAT plug-in modules and the plug connectors of the cable harnesses offer coding options.

The manufacturing process can be accelerated as far as possible and the risk of wiring errors is minimised. This saves working time and thus costs. It allows production at different worldwide locations with a minimum of risk, since errors are avoided through automation and coding.

Incremental encoder simulation in the EtherCAT Terminal

Product range of the temperature measuring terminals extended

The analog input terminals EL32xx (EtherCAT Terminals) and KL32xx (Bus Terminals) enable resistance sensors to be connected directly. A microprocessor in the terminal converts the resistance value to temperature and linearises it, depending on the set characteristic curve. Resistance sensors with different characteristic curves are implemented over their entire mea-suring range. The new terminals are:

EtherCAT Terminals . EL3208 | 8-channel analog input, PT100 (RTD), 16 bit . EL3214 | 4-channel analog input, PT100 (RTD), 16 bit

Bus Terminals . KL3204-0030 | 4-channel analog input NTC (10 kΩ) . KL3208-0010 | 8-channel analog input PT1000, Ni1000, potentiometer 1 kΩ, 5 kΩ, 10 kΩ, NTC 1.8…100 k . KL3214 | 4-channel analog input terminal PT100 (RTD), 16 bit

Stepper motor terminal with vector control

The EL7047 EtherCAT Terminal is intended for Stepper Motors with medium performance range. The PWM output stages cover a wide range of voltages and currents. Together with two inputs for limit switches, they are located in the EtherCAT Terminal. The EL7047 can be adjusted to the motor and the application by changing just a few parameters. Stepper motors from the AS10xx series can be operated with vector control. This control technique offers various benefits, such as better dynamics and lower power consumption. An EL9576 brake chopper terminal protects

from the effects of over-voltage, in that it absorbs some of the energy. If the voltage exceeds the capacity of the terminal, it gets rid of the excess energy via an external resistance.

Compact EtherCAT Box in zinc die-cast housing

The EtherCAT Box system is complemented by the new ERxxxx modules with zinc die-cast housing. The housing shape of the ER series modules is identical to the plastic housings of the EP series. The zinc die-cast housing makes the IP 67 modules particularly robust, so that they are ready for use in harsh industrial and process environments. With the fully sealed design and metal surfaces the ER series is ideal for applications requiring enhanced load capacity and protection against weld spatter, for example. The ER series is the opti-mum complement to the plastic and stainless steel housing versions. All modules are compatible.

The modules are available in a slim 30 mm or the broader 60 mm format with different channel options, covering a wide I/O range. Signals can be connected via M8 or M12 connectors. The modules of the ER series have an EtherCAT interface. Power supply and trans-mission takes place via M8 connectors or sockets. For high-current outputs, modules with 7/8“ power supply and M12 EtherCAT sockets are available.

The EtherCAT Box modules with zinc die-cast housing cover the typical I/O signals: . digital inputs with various filters . digital outputs with 0.5 A/2 A output current . combi modules with freely configurable

digital inputs or outputs . analog input modules for current/voltage and temperature measurement . serial interfaces . encoder inputs . motion modules

Since October 2013, the IO-Link communication system has been available worldwide as an international standard (IS) according to IEC 61131-9 and is thus the first globally standardised technology for communication with sen-sors and actuators below the fieldbus level. Based on this standard Beckhoff offers a new, extensive range of IO-Link box modules with IP 67 protection for digital and analog sensors for the implementation of inexpensive point- to-point connections directly in the field.

With their compact and space-saving design the IO-Link box modules are suitable for the most diverse applications. The IO-Link connections are inte-grated in the proven plastic housings (EPI) and in the die-cast zinc housings (ERI) for additional protection in extremely harsh environments.The modules are connected via an IO-Link master, e.g.:– EL6224 EtherCAT Terminal (IP 20)– EP6224 EtherCAT Box (IP 67)– KL6224 Bus Terminal (IP 20)

TwinSAFE

The AX8000 multi-axis servo system greatly simplifies the implementa-tion of multi-channel drive solutions. The required number of 1-channel or 2-channel axis modules are attached to the central supply module. The modules are connected without screws or tools using the built-in AX-Bridge quick connection system, which is based on spring-loaded terminals. The 1-axis and 2-axis modules can optionally be equipped with TwinSAFE for safe drive technology.

The EtherCAT-based AX8000 multi-axis servo system combines powerful FPGA technology with multi-core ARM processors. A TwinCAT 3 runtime is already integrated which enables programming in C++, IEC 61131 and MATLAB®/Simulink®. The new multi-channel current control technology enables extremely short sampling and response times. The entirely hard-ware-implemented current controller combines the advantages of analog and digital control technology: reaction to a current deviation from the setpoint value is possible within 1 µs; the velocity controller cycle time is around 16 µs at a switching frequency of 32 kHz. The processing of EtherCAT process data (actual and setpoint values) is carried out without a processor almost without delay in the hardware, so that the minimum EtherCAT cycle time is only 62.5 µs.

The AX8000 multi-axis servo system supports OCT, the One Cable Tech-nology for power and feedback from Beckhoff. In connection with the ser-vomotors from the AM8000 series, the wiring is reduced to the standard motor cable, via which the feedback signals are also transmitted.

TC3 Scope View – Extended functionality

TC3 Scope is a software oscilloscope for monitoring machine commissi-oning and data analysis in the production process. Scope View, which is integrated in Microsoft Visual Studio®, can be operated in stand-alone mode or in parallel to a TwinCAT project. The classic application is the continuous visualisation of variables in a chart. For many applications it is also useful to display a variable curve over a second variable which is not time – a so-called XY plot.

This kind of representation is frequently used for motion applications, for example for tracking contour curves. However, an XY plot can also be helpful in Condition Monitoring, for example to visualise the imbalance

of a rotary axis. The XY plot is already included in the licence-free basic version, and with the Professional version this new display method is also available for the integration of scope control into your own .NET-based HMI.

Further new features simplify orientation in the recorded measuring data, such as signal highlighting, overview chart in the time chart and the fast data picker. In addition, new data export formats are offered in the scope.

www.beckhoff.com/TE1300

TC3 Bode Plot Base

In the TwinCAT 3 Measurement package, the TC3 Bode Plot Base is integrated licence-free as a further analysis tool in Microsoft Visual Studio®. The Bode plot is a method commonly used in drive technology to determine the behaviour of a drive axis including its mechanics, so that it can be purposefully optimised. The Bode plot can be carried out in speed or torque modes. With the possibility to simulate various filters in TwinCAT Measurement, from the first-order low-pass filter to the second-order phase correction filter, coupled with the results of the Bode plot, the reaction of the axis to the set filter can be estimated even before it is activated in the drive controller. Thus machine commissioning can be considerably simplified.
