Harmonica digital Servo DriveHarmonica digital Servo Drive

Exceptionally compact and smart digital servo drive for DC brush, DC brushless and linear motors (operates on DC power).

The Harmonica series of servo drives brings higher dynamics and increased precision to a wide range of automated applications. The Harmonica incorporates a digital motion controller that features CANopen networking, a position loop, a velocity loop, a current loop and a very wide range of feedback and I/O options.

The Harmonica is fully programmable using the Composer programming language (32 KB of memory is available for storing programs). Using the Composer setup tool, Harmonica users can perform drive setup, configuration, tuning, analysis and drive programming quickly and easily.
