Schneider Electric’s Lexium32i integrated servomotor with modular design is said to give users the flexibility and simplicity in wiring and installation.

Motion Control Products recently introduced Schneider Electric’s Lexium 32i servomotor with integrated electronics combines the simplicity of the Lexium 32 drive and the powerful Lexium BMI brushless servomotor in one single unit. With a unique modular concept, Lexium32i combines of four components:

• BMI motor with power stage
• Lexium32 drive control unit
• power supply connector module and
• I/O and fieldbus connector module

By using the online-configurator, users can select the four catalogued components which will make the user’s Lexium 32i dedicated to their applications and these four components are also easy to assemble – simply click on each component and attach in less than three minutes. This reduces assembly time with simplified wiring and easy cabling and improves energy efficiency. All the settings can be stored on the optional handset device called Multi-loader or memory card and just simply insert the card to reload all parameters into the next motors. The setup software ‘SoMove’ is user-friendly in configuration, start-up and maintenance and compatible with PCs, direct USBs and even the mobile phones.

Lexium32i is available in two motor frame sizes: 70mm (1-phase) and 100mm (3-phase) with the power range from 0.4 kW to 2.2 kW. Its interfaces support some popular functions such as Modbus serial link, CANopen, CANmotion and EtherCAT. It has the operating modes like Homing, Manual mode (JOG), Speed control, Current control and Position control to meet different application needs in the speeds and controls requirement.

Unlike traditional servo drives that are installed in a cabinet, the Lexium32i is installed directly on the machine to help the users reduce cabinet space by up to 60%. It also reduces total cost of ownership by up to 30 percent, due to less cabinet cooling, no need for motor cables or cabinet space for the drive. Lexium32i brushless servo motor with integrated electronics is an ideal and innovative product for the OEMs and machine builders in the applications of packaging, printing, material handling, pick and place, food processing and more.
