Rugged Solutions for Motion in Harsh Applications

As a Technology Partner known for delivering rugged, long-term, motion solutions, Rockwell Automation reached out to Elwood to evaluate solutions to increase productivity of the machinery in the high shock environment. With some special considerations, resolver feedback can be implemented successfully in even longer cable runs. Both Elwood and Rockwell Automation have partnered with Vega to connect the rugged motor solutions with resolver feedback to modern Kinetix® servo amplifiers. Vega is a Technology Partner that manufactures resolver-to-digital converters designed to plug into Kinetix® servo amplifiers. Modern Kinetix® 5700, 5300 and 5100 drives can support these resolver feedback motors using Vega’s 2799 series converters.
