Summary
Digital System d-Drive® for Piezo Actuators (Piezo Controller)
The d-Drive® line in the program of piezo nano controllers from piezosystem jena combines the highest positioning accuracy with a unique handling comfort. Available is the multichannel modular system d-Drive® with 19" rack casing. All features can be controlled by a PC. The main functions of the modular 19" system can also be directly handled with the front panel. Moreover, the actuators now include AUTOMATIC SENSOR IDENTIFICATION - ASI Function separable and exchangeable. The system always consists of 19" casing with a wide range of power modules ranging from 110 V up to 230 V, the EDS modules, with and without QVGA Display, and various EVD's, low voltage amplifier modules for open and closed loop actuators. Up to 6 actuators per controller can be controlled simultaneously. piezosystem jena also implemented adjustable features such as slew rate, notch filter frequencies, and pass filter frequencies. A built-in function generator offers sine, triangular, and square functions, as well as noise and sweep.
A modular d-Drive® system (piezo controller) always consists of:
- 19" casing with a wide range of power modules ranging from 110 V up to 230 V
- USB-Interface module EDS 1 or EDS 2
- Piezo-Amplifier modules from the EVD series
All this makes the d-Drive® an excellent choice for nanopositioning and scanning applications including scanning microscopy, metrology, surface profiling, cell tracking, nanotechnology, and many other applications.
Technical Information about resolution and capacity of the piezo amplifier modules are provided on the data sheet series EVD. For more detailed information about the d-Drive system please see the data sheet d-Drive.
