Primatics Motor Drive Chassis MDC 400, Four Axis Modules

This motion control drive chassis is a modular system that holds up to four various types of motor driver cards, a choice of several different interfaces, along with all the power supplies and safety interfaces required for operation. These units are all equipped with four micro-stepper type driver cards, and a Galil DMC-1700 interface.

The four identical micro-stepper interface cards may be independently configured for
� 400 and 51200 steps per revolution (assuming a 1.8 degree two-phase step motor)
� Drive current is PWM 20 kHz.
� Current 1.0 to 7 amps peak, maximum 5 amps RMS.
� Maximum Step frequency is 1.8 mHz

The Galil interface is compatible with the following types of controllers:
� Optima DMC-13×8 (VME 1-4 axis, 64 I/O)
� Optima DMC 16×0 (CompactPCI 1-4 axis, 64 I/O)
� Optima DMC-1700 (ISA 1-8 axes)
� Optima DMC-18×0 (PCI 1-8 axes)
� Econo DMC-18×2 (PCI 1-4 axes)
� Accelera DMC 18×6 (PCI 1-8 axes)
� Optima DMC 20×0 (USB/RS-232, 1-8 axes)
� Optima DMC 21×2 (Ethernet / RS232, 1-8 axes)
� Optima DMC 22×0 (Ethernet / RS232 1-8 axis, 64 I/O; Box)

The controller card resides in the computer and is not included with this listing. Connection between the controller and the Interface is via a 100-pin high-density cable. This will need to be sourced elsewhere along with the controller card.

Optionally, Primatics offers several other computer interfaces, including a Galil Accelera, Delta Tau PMAC 2, and a National Instruments NI-7344.

The controllers are in near-unused condition and are guaranteed to be fully functional. They were recently removed from a prototype laboratory environment. Most units have rack-mount ears. They are 3U tall.

The Kensington 4000A 5-axis controller is designed to work with various Kensington stages and robotic fixtures. This controller will accept up to five axis driver cards and can be configured with multiple user and I/O interfaces. The controller is highly modular and consists of a 250w switching power supply module, the mother board, the controller processor board, and the optional axis driver cards (one devoted to each axis of motion).

Optional controller items include an IEEE-488 interface, a second RS232C interface, and an operator interface connector. The axis boards also can be configured with an optional counter / lock piggy-back board. This instrument is fully configured as follows:

X-Axis card (with piggy-back board)
Y-Axis card (with piggy-back board)
Z-Axis card (with piggy-back board)
A-Axis card
B-Axis card (with high-speed piggy-back bard)
Serial number: 91 434 01
Five axis board power transistor pairs and harnesses present
RS232C, Operator Interface, High-Speed Interface �A�, IEEE-488, and Joystick Interface ports

The axis boards are generic but have to be matched to the individual stage elements by using trim pots on the board. Each axis motion system typically includes a DC motor, a DC tachometer, and a position encoder. Equipment needed for calibration / matching is rudimentary � a terminal connected to the Main Port Interface, and a 10MHz oscilloscope capable of displaying X-Y Lissajous patterns.

We will include a copy of the Kensington 4000 instruction manual. This manual covers installation as well as axis board calibration and matching the axis boards to the stages / fixtures involved. The controller is in exceptional condition. It is in the rack-mount configuration (includes rack-ears but lacks feet).
