Fast and safe system integration

Our modular drive controllers can be perfectly integrated into the KEBA or a

third-party automation system.

Flexible communication

“One Drive fits all” – Standardized interfaces such as EtherCAT, PROFINET or

CANopen allow uniform drive technology and constant motion quality even

when using different controllers.

Advanced commissioning tools

Tools that have been tried and tested over many years ensure perfect commissioning

with their many assistant functions. These include guided commissioning, a real-time

oscilloscope or frequency response analysis for precise detection and compensation

of mechanical deficiencies.

Open motor interface

In addition to the extensive KEBA motor program, our drive controllers with their

multi-encoder interface and various control models are open for special or third-party

motors. The automatic user-guided motor identification optimizes all control parameters.

Scaleable Safe Motion Packages

All drive controllers are already equipped with the STO function as standard.

Additional safety functions and packages ensure compliance with applicable regulations,

depending on the application. Safe motion monitoring can be activated and parameterized

via I/O or FSoE fieldbus communication.

Digital control technology

Control technology makes the difference at KEBA.

A sophisticated control structure and predictive pre-controls allow the

greatest possible dynamics with the highest level of accuracy.

Mechanical inadequacies are corrected online using adaptive processes,

and mechanical oscillations or vibrations are suppressed or filtered out.

Inadequacies in the mechanical transmission path can include encoder

errors, friction and cogging torques, resonance frequencies or asymmetries

in gantry applications.

A variety of analysis and compensation functions are available in our drive

controllers for this purpose.

Autotuning for easy commissioning identifies the machine mechanics and

parameterizes the control loops quickly and reliably.

To reduce downtimes, the drive system and the coupled mechanics are

constantly monitored. Defects are diagnosed quickly and wear is diagnosed

in advance. The internal evaluation of all data ensures fast analyses, only the

results are transmitted to the factory automation in real time.

Drive solutions that move

KEBA servo controllers offer high dynamics and precision for a wide

range of applications in industrial automation. Our focus is on

comprehensive support for system integration and the selection of

suitable drive solutions.

For simple and efficient integration into existing automation solutions

solutions, various bus systems including EtherCAT, Profinet, CAN and a

large number of analog and digital encoders are supported.

Furthermore, KEBA servo drives can be easily integrated into existing

safety solutions; integrated Safe Motion solutions up to SIL 3.

PLe and CAT 4 offer flexible options for this.

without additional converters

The Pitch system for your application

The PitchMaster II+ Pitch drives are particularly robust and were specially

developed for the tough conditions in the rotor hubs of wind turbine installations.

The high functional integration of the PitchMaster II+ drives simplifies the design

and significantly reduces the Pitch cabinet volume as well as the required wiring.

The TÜV-certified functional safety accelerates the certification process for your

wind turbine.

The industry standard in Pitch servo drives applications

Built into axis controller as standard

KeDrive D3 comes with STO (SIL3. PLe, Kat 4) and SBC (SIL2. PLd, Kat 3) as stan

dard. This makes the drive system suitable for applications with high demands on

safety, for example in presses or for the handling of suspended loads.

SafeMotion in axis controller (option)

The axis controller safely monitors the motion in compliance with EN / IEC 61508 and

EN / ISO 13849. Available safety functions include SS1. SS2. SOS, SLS, SLI, SDI and

SLP with up to SIL3. PL e, Cat 4. With the high safety levels that can be achieved,

deployment is possible in all safety-critical applications.

ServoOne CM

Machine safety control system

The FSM safety control system easily manages the safe I/Os and controls the safe

movements of multiple axes. The intuitive SafetyManager drag&drop UI allows users

to configure, program and then validate the entire safety system. CRCs ensure data

consistency, which can be verified for series processes.
