Description

Direct drive control is integrated directly into the EtherCAT I/O system via the EL7332 motion interface terminal. This compact 12 mm module provides high-performance, two-channel control for small DC brush motors operating at 24 V DC. Capable of delivering up to 1 A continuous current per channel, it features integrated travel distance control and supports performance scaling up to 3.0 A when utilizing the ZB8610 fan cartridge. The device interfaces seamlessly within standard Beckhoff EtherCAT networks, employing Distributed Clocks (DC) for precise microsecond-level synchronization across the control architecture.

Features

Dual-channel compact drive technology designed for brushed DC motors and inductive loads.
Integrated travel distance control functionality for automated positioning tasks.
Supports Distributed Clocks (DC) for highly synchronized system operations.
Performance expansion up to 3.0 A per channel via the optional ZB8610 fan cartridge.
High-frequency 32 kHz PWM clock rate with 180-degree phase shift to minimize ripple.
Direct motor connection with compact housing design and integrated status LEDs.

Applications

Small-scale positioning drives and actuators in manufacturing systems.
Conveyor systems and material handling sortation lines.
Automated assembly and packaging machinery.
General mechanical engineering applications requiring compact DC motor control.
