Putting safety at the forefront
24 October 2024
AT SPS Stober will present the new SB6 drive controller, which is suitable for applications with one to four axes for small and medium-sized companies. The new stand-alone solution packs numerous functions into one space-saving unit and minimises the control effort needed considerably.
Thanks to its compact dimensions, the SB6 fits into control cabinets at an installation depth as low as 210mm. All safety functions can be used up to SIL 3 PL e (cat. 4). Linear, rotational synchronous servo, lean and asynchronous motors can be controlled. Commissioning is made easier by an SD card as the application memory, which can simply be plugged into the SB6. Another special feature is the number of digital and analogue inputs and outputs.
Visitors will also have the opportunity to find out more about the tried-and-tested 6th generation of SC6 and SI6 drive controllers. The SC6 is a compact stand-alone controller for up to two drive axes with nominal output currents of up to 19 A. The SI6 is also slim, dynamic and suitable for multi-axis drive systems, with nominal output currents of up to 50A. Tasks with more than four axes, such as in packaging systems, can thus be solved economically.
In cooperation with Pilz, Stober has developed the SX6 safety module for both controllers. Controllers can be used in safety-relevant applications up to SIL 3, PL e (category 4) in accordance with DIN 61800-5-2 or DIN EN ISO 13849-1.
