Cost Effective Brushless Servo Systems

The TQ Series servo drives from Compumotor bring high performance to a small, low cost brushless servo system. Without the need for an external power supply, the TQ series offers a cost effective solution to a number of brushless servo applications.

The TQ10 Series is offered with an array of Compumotor brushless servo motors. The drives are also compatible with many 3-phase, brushless motors utilizing hall effect feedback. All models are equipped with a recirculating PWM amplifier, providing reduced heating in the motor and drive. With speeds up to 7,500 RPM and continuous torque up to 320 oz.-in., the TQ system is well suited to meet the demands of today’s customers.

The TQ10 Series is available in three versions: TQ10, TQ10SD and TQ10X. The TQ10 is a torque amplifier, utilizing an industry standard ±10V analog input. It is directly compatible with industry standard servo controllers. The TQ10SD uses the same command interface found on most step motor amplifiers, allowing for easy upgrade from step motor, to the higher performance levels found in brushless servo systems. The TQ10X integrates a simple, yet powerful, servo controller with the TQ10 torque amplifier, creating a complete single-axis servo system.

Easy and reliable installation is accomplished by utilizing removable screw terminals for all connection points. Five diagnostic LEDs indicate seven different status and error conditions. The drives are housed in a rugged steel metal casing.

TQ series drives, whether matched with a Compumotor controller, or using an integrated controller, form a convenient and flexible system for solving a variety of motion control applications.
