AX8540

AX8540 Combined Power Supply and Axis Module

The AX8540 Combined Power Supply and Axis Module represents a significant innovation in industrial automation, effectively merging the capabilities of an AX86xx power supply module with an AX81xx axis module into one comprehensive unit. This fusion of functionalities is particularly advantageous for businesses seeking to optimize their automation system’s efficiency and space utilization.

Key Features and Benefits:

Dual Functionality in a Single Unit: The AX8540 combines power supply and axis control functions, traditionally separate, into one device. This integration not only conserves space within the control cabinet but also simplifies the system’s overall design and installation process.

Optimized Power Distribution: By integrating these modules, the load on the AX-Bridge caused by the first axis’s current is eliminated. This design frees up to 50 A DC for additional axis modules, enhancing the system’s power distribution and capacity.

High Power Output to DC Link: The module is capable of providing an impressive 80 A DC to the DC link, catering to the high-power requirements of various industrial applications.

Internal Brake Resistor and Chopper: Equipped with an internal brake resistor and a chopper, the AX8540 efficiently manages regenerative energy, a crucial aspect in applications with frequent and intense motor braking.

Integrated Axis Module with Advanced Safety Functions: The built-in axis module, available with rated currents of 25 A or 40 A, incorporates TwinSAFE safety functions. This ensures high standards of safety and reliability, which are paramount in industrial settings.

Customizable with Multi-Feedback Interface: To accommodate diverse application needs, the module can be optionally ordered with a multi-feedback interface, offering flexibility and compatibility with various feedback systems.

The AX8540 Combined Power Supply and Axis Module is a perfect solution for industries looking to enhance their automation systems with a compact, powerful, and safe module. It’s particularly suited for applications requiring high power output, advanced safety measures, and efficient space utilization in control cabinets.
