The new XTS EcoLine motor module allows for even more cost-effective use of intelligent product transport systems from Beckhoff. It offers 95% of the technical properties of the well-known motor modules, at just 55% of the cost for the same distance. The motor module is also designed to be seamlessly compatible, allowing it to be used together with previous versions if required.
Right from the outset, the XTS EcoLine motor module stands out because of its length. At 500 mm, it is twice as long as the standard straight modules, yet still fits within the same grid dimensions. The familiar reliability and robustness of XTS are guaranteed, as are the specifications for travel speed (up to 4 m/s) and acceleration (up to 10 g).
The XTS EcoLine module type differs slightly with regard to the following technical properties:
• 0,70 mm absolute accuracy and 0,075 mm repeatability.
• 70 mm minimum product distance.
• up to 30 N nominal force initially, and up to 80 N peak force per mover.
The XTS EcoLine motor module is fully compatible with standard motor modules, making it highly versatile for a variety of applications including processes that do not require extremely low values in terms of accuracy or product distance.
