Practical example

The configured 480 VDC drive system consists of:

Number

Component

4

Servomotors from the AM8031-0D21 series with a cable length of 4 m, 10 m, 15 m and 22 m

4

Servomotors from the AM8051-0G21 series with a cable length of 16 m, 18 m, 21 m and 25 m

4

Dual-axis modules from the AX8206 series

1

Power supply modules from the AX8620 series

Total standstill current I0

The total standstill current I0 relates to all servomotors listed in the practical example and corresponds to:

The total standstill current I0 is now multiplied by the simultaneity factor. In the case of a machine tool this is relatively high, e.g. 0.9, because all axes can drive into the material at the same time. In the case of a handling system the factor is more likely to be 0.7. This then corresponds to:

The AX8620 power supply module was selected on the basis of the calculations.

 

24 VDC current consumption

The 24 VDC current consumption relates to all the components listed in the practical example and corresponds to:

 

Result

The maximum single cable length for the AM8051-0G21 is 25 m and is thus ≤ 25 m

The total cable length of all servomotors is 131 m and is thus ≤ 300 m

The 24 VDC current consumption of all components is 5.88 ADC and is therefore ≤ 20 ADC

The maximum DC link capacitance is always related to the connection to a common AX8620 power supply module with 945 µF and is thus ≤ 6000 µF
