在ABB ACS880變頻調速裝置中嵌入位置控制功能將降低成本并簡化機器制造。

　　ABB將位置控制功能集成在ACS880變頻調速裝置中，使操作設備無需外部控制器就能滿足運動系統的需求。在變頻器內嵌入位置控制，可以最大限度地減少機器的設計和安裝工作，無需額外設備，從而降低成本。

　　在此之前，需要不同的設備來實現位置控制、速度和扭矩功能。位置控制是通過特定工具、用戶界面和編程語言的運動控制器來實現的。這些獨立控制器的功率范圍通常限制在20千瓦（kW）以下，并且每家制造商的要求都不一樣。

　　ACS880通過嵌入位置控制軟件提供了一種替代解決方案，功率范圍高達5600 kW。  它具有多種預編程功能，包括尋零模式、絕對和相對定位、規劃定位路徑、位置同步和快速位置鎖定。ACS880還提供無編碼器定位功能和能量回饋解決方案。

　　可以通過簡單的參數接口來實現運動控制功能，還可以使用PLC Open運動模塊，通過通用IEC61131編程來完成功能的修改和擴展。ACS880幾乎支持所有類型的電機、反饋設備和通信協議。

　　ACS880變頻器適用于各種應用，可在惡劣環境中運行。  “這些變頻器已成功通過多種運動控制應用測試，包括 塔式起重機、金屬鍛壓、分揀和包裝線、轉臺和切割系統，”ABB變頻器的全球產品管理經理Tuomo Tarula說。“這些測試證明了變頻器的高性能和靈活性。”

　　無論是需要定位、速度還是轉矩控制，ACS880平臺都可以在整個生產線上使用相同的產品系列。這意味著所需的培訓、工具和備件更少。

　　Embedded position control in ABB ACS880 variable speed drives will reduce costs and simplify machine building

　　ABB is integrating positioning control within its ACS880 variable speed drives to allow operators to meet motion system demands without the need of an external controller. Embedding position control inside the drive minimizes machine engineering and installation work, removes the need for additional equipment and lowers costs.

　　Traditionaly, separate devices are used for position control and speed and torque. Position control is implemented using a motion controller with specific tools, user interfaces and programming languages. The power range of these separate controllers are typically limited to under 20 kilowatts (kW) depending on the manufacturer.

　　The ACS880 with embedded position control offers an alternative solution and a power range up to 5600 kW.  It features several pre-programmed functions, including homing modes, absolute and relative positioning, profiled positioning, position synchronizing and fast position latching. The ACS880 also offers encoderless position capabilities and regenerative solutions.

　　The motion functions are available through a simple parameter interface. Modification and extension of the functions are done by common IEC61131 programming using PLC Open motion blocks. The ACS880 supports almost any type of motor, feedback device and communication protocol.

　　The ACS880 drives are suitable for a variety of applications and engineered to perform in harsh environments.  “These drives have been successfully tested in numerous motion control applications, including stacker cranes, metal presses, sorting and packaging lines, rotary tables and cutting systems,” said Tuomo Tarula, Global Product Management Manager, Drives, ABB. “These tests have proven the drives’ high performance and flexibility.”

　　The ACS880 platform enables the same product family to be used across the whole production line regardless of whether there is a need for positioning, speed or torque control. This means less training, tools and spare parts are required.

　　ABB (ABBN: SIX Swiss Ex) is a pioneering technology leader in power grids, electrification products, industrial automation and robotics and motion, serving customers in utilities, industry and transport & infrastructure globally. Continuing a history of innovation spanning more than 130 years, ABB today is writing the future of industrial digitalization with two clear value propositions: bringing electricity from any power plant to any plug and automating industries from natural resources to finished products.
