Proven benefits, full compatibility, lower costs
The XTS EcoLine motor module makes intelligent product handling from Beckhoff even more economical. 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.
At 500 mm, the EcoLine motor module 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:
The EcoLine motor module is fully compatible with standard motor modules, making it highly versatile for a variety of applications:
The EcoLine motor module is an efficient and cost-effective addition to the XTS linear intelligent transport system from Beckhoff.
As an intelligent transport system, the eXtended Transport System enables flexible motion profiles and new types of machine concept.
The AT2200 motor module is an element for setting up straight XTS track sections. Simply plugging them together is sufficient to establish an electrical connection between these motor modules. With one power supply, a maximum of 6 motor modules can be plugged together one after the other in a 3 m long infeed line. The standardized length of 500 mm enables finely scalable system lengths and represents an economical alternative to standard motor modules.
The AT2202 motor module is very similar to the AT2200 motor module. In addition, it has a connector for the supply of power and communication, to which connection cables in variable lengths can be connected. Compared to fixed connection cables, the connection cables are drag-chain suitable and longer cable lengths are possible. With a length of 500 mm, the motor modules with infeed represent an economical alternative to standard motor modules. By attaching motor modules without infeed, straight and curved track layouts, the infeed line can be extended up to 3 m. An entire XTS system consists of at least one infeed line. Several infeed lines of different lengths can be used in one XTS system. The length of an infeed line is primarily determined by the mechanical motion profile of the movers and thus the electrical power consumption and the number of movers on the respective track.
