New series – new functions

The new b maXX 6000 series impresses with its numerous new functions, which have been specially developed for sophisticated applications. The new controllers are faster and more reliable than ever before. Despite the expanded functional scope, the firmware is fully compatible with the preceding b maXX 5000 family – a changeover is therefore possible without new programming or parameterization.

Here are some of the innovations at a glance:

Safety for high-performance applications

• Even faster response (1ms) to safety-related events

• Transfer of the safe position via FSoE to the safety control as the basis for 3D space monitoring

• Digital encoders can be used as safety encoders

• Safety possible via load-side encoders

Prepared for Drive-PLC

• Real time data processing in the drive

• Drive can be used as a data hub for connection of direct and indirect sensors

• IoT-ready thanks to OPC-UA and MQTT

Fully compatible firmware

• Simple change from b maXX 5000 to 6000: Parameter data sets can be transferred.

• Drive-based functions and softdrivePLC projects can be further used with no changes required

• Only a minimal amount of work necessary for adjusting the parameterization for FSoE
