Integrated safety functions

The new programmable servo drive also features Safety PLC capability that allows a complete safety solution to be implemented using the drive. This eliminates the need for external safety PLCs and their associated complexity, and provides shorter reaction times. Integrated safety functions provide a complete, freely programmable functional safety system for safe handling of machines.

The Moog Servo Drive Software with Safety PLC functions includes pre-programmed modules for all commonly used sensors, each available as a logic element. Similarly, the safety functions (SLS, SLI, etc.) can be easily selected. Programming is achieved by linking the various input devices and safety functions with standard logic functions.
