Tandem Pendulum
Tandem
pendulum, Motor,Sensors
By a three-phase synchronous drive, a toothed
wheel and a toothed belt a cart is driven along a guiding bar. Two revolving pendulums are
mounted on top of the cart. The sensors are three rotary incremental encoders for the position of the
cart and the two pendulum angles. The system is built on aluminium profiles and covered with a
plastic container outside of the range of the pendulum. The electrical signals are connected
through multi-pin plugs. |

Actuator with power
supply and system control
Inside
a 19"-case (length 470 mm x depth 370 mm x height 156 mm, weight 10 kg) there are a servo unit, a power supply
and two system control units (System Status, User Control). The system status displays whether the plant is
connected to actuator, the system is ready to operate, the plant type as well as manual/PC/ external controller.
The user control contains two keys (start manual or external controller), one potentiometer (manual control signal),
two measurement outputs (control signals for servo amplifiers) and two signal inputs (external control signals for servo amplifiers)
as well as a key to stop any controller. The servo amplifier for the system Tandem Pendulum is already included in
the standard version. Actuator mains supply (230 V, 50 Hz, 400 W, on request 110 V, 60 Hz)
