Synchro Controllers - General Information

  • All synchronisation controllers shown on this site operate according to the Master- Slave principle. Where the Master can freely move with any motion profile under control of any remote speed reference, the synchroniser will control one or several Slaves to exactly follow the Master motion in terms of position and speed.
  • The control is based on incremental position feedback by means of encoders on both sides. Many applications just use a measuring wheel with encoder instead of a Master drive. It is possible to preset every speed or gear ratio by means of adjustable impulse scaling factors.
  • All units can accept marker pulses from the encoders and from remote proximity switches or photocells, to automatically produce the correct position with pitch or cycle related applications. mks synchro controllers can operate with any kind of speed variable drive (AC- inverter, DC, Servo or hydraulic type) that follow to a +/-10V speed reference signal. The extremely fast position control loop (range 100 µsec) provides excellent performance even with highly dynamic applications
