Festo: Rotary Drive Unit ERMS

September 30, 2021

This cost-effective rotary drive unit for simple swiveling tasks with angles of 90° or 180° can withstand even very high mechanical loading. As part of the Simplified Motion Series, the ERMS is easy to configure and can be put into operation directly without software. Includes IO-Link and digital I/O (DIO).

Features

  •    –   Complete solution consisting of integrated actuator, motor and servo drive
  •    –   Cost-effective solution package for simple swivel tasks, but also for applications involving high loads
  •    –   Sealed hollow shaft for the integrated duct for cables and hoses
  •    –   Standardized mounting interface for direct connection to the electric mini slides EGSL, EGSC and EGSS
  •    –   Integrated end position sensing
  •    –   Two control options integrated as standard: digital I/O and IO-Link
  •    –   Easy commissioning according to the plug and work principle: all parameters are manually adjustable directly on the actuator without any software or special expertise required
  •    –   Product of the Simplified Motion Series: does not need any external servo drive or any control cabinet for the installation
