B&R servo drive with BiSS interface
Being able to read signals from a large number of different position encoders is nothing new to the B&R ACOPOSmulti drive family. Now, this range is being expanded to include a brand new member: an interface card for BiSS encoders. This addition gives customers another option from a range of measuring systems for selecting the position encoder best suited to the application at hand.
The fully digital BiSS bidirectional sensor interface is an open and licence-free communication standard that allows sensor data to be read synchronously, securely and quickly. The new BiSS interface features high-speed data transfer with excellent error-detection properties. This makes the BiSS encoder interface especially well suited for demanding applications such as integrating fully digital hollow shaft encoders with large internal diameters or implementing robust absolute or linear measurement systems with high-speed movements.
The BiSS interface plug-in card is a logical addition to the wide range of ACOPOS encoder modules and opens up new possibilities for tackling demanding automation projects. For further information please go to www.br-automation.com.
