TRINAMIC Motion Control GmbH & Co KG A milling cutter for perfect surface quality in stainless steel TRINAMIC Motion Control announces the TMCM-1633-CANopen, a new compact 300W BLDC servo controller module with sinusoidal commutation compatible with the industry standard CANopen protocol. The TMCM-1633-CANopen is a cost-efficient module embedding advanced motor control and motion control functions, as well as PLC features. The new drive (92mm x 50mm) is equipped with a CAN interface, CANopen (CiA-402) protocol stack and Trinamic’s free TMCL-IDE. The module provides a flexible, cost-effective solution to decentralized coordinated control of BLDC or BLAC motors of up to 10A RMS continuous current at 48V supply voltage. Featuring field-oriented control using a/b/n incremental encoder signals, the BLDC servo controller allows for precise and dynamic positioning and trapezoidal ramping. The firmware supports hall sensor inputs for faster initialization. CrazyMill Cool is a new carbide ball mill for finishing operations in titanium and superalloys. This coated end mill with four teeth is available in diameters from 1 - 8 mm for milling depth up to 5xd, each with a cutting depth of 2xd. Two more versions are available specially for medical applications (implants) with usable milling lengths of 3xd and 4x d.

This provides excellent surface quality when milling in radius areas or cylindrical areas. Integrated cooling channels provide the cutting edges in each position continuously with coolant avoiding overheating and allowing highest cutting speeds and maximum performance. Chips are flushed out of the machining area. The result is a surface quality equal to a grinding finish. Phone. +41 91 610 40 00 [email protected] www.mikrontool.com Issue 30 PECM 97
