– Capitan & Everest S User
XCR General-Purpose
Interface Board
Everest, Everest S & Capitan (NET)
XCR is an ultra-compact interface board offering interface and connectivity for almost all the features embedded in either Capitan NET or Everest S NET. Despite of its small size it’s rated to the full power of the Everest S, and gets the drive ready-to-use by including the required electronics for EtherCAT and CANopen communications, IOs, all compatible feedbacks, and many others.
Main features
- Ultra-small footprint
- 72 VDC, 45 A continuous
- EtherCAT & CANopen ready
- Halls, Quadrature encoder, SSI and Dual BiSS-C encoders
- Electromechanical brake dedicated output
- STO dedicated redundant inputs (SIL3 Ple certifiable)
- 4x Digital outputs, 4x Digital inputs, and 1x differential analog input
Dual axis carrier board
for robot links
Capitan NET
Dual axis interface board for Capitan NET. Its main purpose is to move the drive from the joints, the densest elements in a collaborative robot, to the robot links, a component typically underutilized. With this, the integration complexity of the robot could be reduced while keeping the advantages of Capitan NET as a motion controller.
Main features
- 60 VDC, 10 A continuous.
- EtherCAT ready
- Dual simultaneous absolute encoder
- Electromechanical brake dedicated outputs
- Motor temperature sensor dedicated inputs
- STO redundant dedicated inputs
- Power supply, EtherCAT and STO daisy-chain connections on-board.
- Logic supply on-board
