STAC6 HARDWARE
STAC6 APPLICATION
STAC6 SET UP SOFTWARE
STAC6 CONFIGURATOR
OVERVIEW • The STAC6 is a compact 6 amp/phase step motor driver with a 167 vdc bus (no transformer) • It uses sophisticated software to “tame” inherent problems with open loop drives • Existing AMP application software ie; Si Programmer, SCL and Q are seamlessly integrated into the design • A brand new, non-legacy application named CONFIGURATOR simplifies set-up

What the comparison shows • STAC6,BLUAC,BLUDC have identical flavors ie: S, Q, Si • STAC6,BLUAC,BLUDC have identical digital I/O’s • STAC6,BLUAC,BLUDC have identical analog inputs • STAC6,BLUAC,BLUDC have identical hub compatibility • RESULT: Choose the best primemover for the application, let the electronics selection follow
STAC6 • Let’s go under the hood
Under the hood • Low speed torque ripple reduction • 4th harmonic added to distort sine wave
Mid range resonance • Here comes the heavy artillery
Under the hood • Mid range resonance solution • Dsp engine is running a model
Mid range resonance • Mid range resonance occurs in the 4 to 15 rev/sec range • Occurs at speeds when the drive is not capable of supplying full current • Occurs in natural resonant bands • Half stepping or microstepping often help • Type of coupling is important • Some compliance was useful
Mid range resonance • Amount of load inertia is a factor • Sloppy gear boxes/backlash are bad • Viscous damping often helps • Heavy grease in gearbox
Mid range resonance • Mathematical analysis shows insufficient “damping” is the culprit • How do you add damping without a feedback device? • Answer: Create a “model” of the plant and let it run in the background. Compare actual currents and the model currents. Inject a small “correction” signal from the model to raise the damping in the actual.
Mid range resonance • Model runs a plant that looks like a spring – mass combination. • Therefore we information about: • The peak torque of the motor (spring) • The total system inertia ie; Jr + Jl (mass) • Dsp engine then calculates the natural resonant frequency • Freq = sq. rt.{50Tmax/(Jr +Jl)} / 6.28
Mid range resonance • Result: Choose a motor from our preconfigured list and you only have to enter the load inertia
Mid range resonance • Use a non-listed motor and you have more info to enter!!!
Under the hood - Self Test • On power-up the drive verifies the resistance of the windings • On power up the drive verifies the inductance of the windings • The drive therefore needs this data • File motors- no problem • Non standard motors- You must enter
Under the hood - VERIFY • AMP has offered position verification on 3540i – very successful • STAC6 offers more • Position verification • Stall detect • Set the error window (just like a servo with following error) • R&D project for “Stall prevention” • riding the Torque speed curve to lower speeds.
MOTOR HEATING • Step motors have Class B insulation • Class B means 130C winding temperature limit • Classical approach to determine current rating • Suspend motor in free air • Adjust the current for a 80C winding temp. rise in a 40C environment (allows for 10C hot spot) • No iron losses to contribute to temp. rise
MOTOR HEATING • STAC6 approach (motor losses are copper and iron) • Assumed a motor mounting plate • 6” x 6” x .25” for NEMA 23 • 10” x 10” x .375” for NEMA 34 • Verify motor winding temp. remains at or below 130C in a 40C environment • NOTE: This can result in case temperatures up to 95C
MOTOR HEATING • Techniques that mitigate the temperature rise • Idle current reduction (factory default is 90%) • Motor losses vary with speed • 10% reduction in running current causes a 21% reduction in temp rise.
MOTOR HEATING • STAC 6 with Step Motors • Thermal aspects are important now • Motors in indexing applications with some rest time (idle current reduction on) will exhibit Si5580 type temperature rises • Motors in constant speed applications willrun hotter and need the mechanical mount to absorb some of the heat energy.
