SCU6x Controller Dual Rail Power Supply

Exploring the Dual Rail Power Supply Feature of the SCU6x Controller

In this video, we delve into the dual rail power supply feature of the SCU6x Controller. This feature provides a separate power rail for the driver and the logic, enhancing safety by allowing the power to the driver part to be cut off when necessary, such as during access to a web guide. Demonstrations include how to indicate power status and control the actuator via this dual rail system.

SCU6x Controller Electronic Stroke Limit for Actuators

A Common Customer Concern, Controlling the Actuator when the Web Breaks

In this video, we address a common customer concern about actuators in the event of a web break, focusing on the safety features of the SCU6x Controller. We cover how the actuator will not drive to a mechanical limit due to electronic limits, preventing burnout. Additionally, we discuss the advanced digital system of our stepper motor-based actuators, which includes electronic stroke limits, limit switch options using NPN proximity sensors, and the lock on lost edge feature.

SCU6x Controller Center Guiding Using Two Sensors

In this episode, we explore how to utilize the center guiding feature of the SCU6x Controller with two sensors, focusing on automatic adjustments and setup. We demonstrate the mechanics of center guiding using an actuator and explain the importance of using sensors of the same range.
