Military servo drives
25 November 2013
With ratings of 150 A, 300 A and 600 A and operating voltages ranging from 16 to 96 VDC, the newest Gold Eagle ultra-high current military servo drives from Elmo are specifically designed to meet the requirements of unmanned applications such as unmanned vehicles, turrets and other systems that require repeated power bursts for relatively long time periods.
To enhance the compact Gold Eagle package with new ultra-high current specifications, Elmo combined its proprietary power conversion technology together with an advanced pulse-width modulation (PWM) "follower” algorithm. This is the first time such high current has been achieved in such a small military-grade package.
"By significantly increasing the Gold Eagle power and current rates for longer times while keeping the package super-compact and easy to integrate inside any system, Elmo is offering an outstanding servo drive that is not available anywhere else." John McLaughlin, Elmo's US general manager said.
