Module description

MOVIKIT® RapidCreepPositioning Drive is a software module for implementing conventional "rapid/creep speed positioning". Positioning is carried out using 2 initiators with 2 speeds. The first initiator is used to specify the position at which the speed is changed from fast speed to slow speed. The second initiator is used to activate the stop deceleration and in this way specifies the stop position. The number of initiators to be used increases accordingly for positioning applications in two directions or when using additional optional sensors. A motor encoder is therefore not absolutely necessary.

The software modules can be used, for example, in material handling applications (travel drives, lifting drives, roller conveyor/chain conveyors) or in various logistics applications (pallet transfer shuttles or rotary tables).

No programming knowledge is required for startup and diagnostics as the software module is integrated in the MOVISUITE® engineering software.
