Elmo Motion Control: Gold Line Servo Drives

Sophisticated Servo Drives for Modern Industrial Automation

The Gold servo drives, are a result of over 200 engineering years and a natural evolution of SimplIQ technology. Supporting both CANopen and EtherCAT protocols and equipped with the latest advanced technology has to offer, the line is the cutting-edge in servos!

One solution, any application: With Elmo's Gold servo drives we have the motion control solution for your industrial automation challenges. The Gold Line components' distributed intelligence, synergy, and variety of servo drive features, are easily harnessed to create a motion control system that answers your application automation needs and that supports any servo motors. The built-in operational simplicity, from each individual component to the entire system, combined with an innovative single software environment that interfaces with all units and servo motors, ensures the highest level of performance.

The servo drives in the Gold Line represent Elmo's best ever motion control solutions and are designed to handle modern industrial automation applications of ever increasing complexity. At the same time, they remain true to Elmo's motto of "Small, Smart & Simple," enabling you to develop your machines, get the best results from the servo motors, and achieve the shortest time-to-market.

DC Input: 6 to 780 VDC - for DC brush, sinusoidal and trapezoidal motors

Gold Oboe Series

The Smallest Servo Drive to Run 480VAC
10A/480VAC, 13A/230VAC

The Gold Oboe is a series of intelligent super compact, super-efficient servo drives that operates directly from the mains via 3-Phase or Single Phase.

With peaking capability of over 10,000W, ultra-fast response, wide bandwidth, better than 1:2000 current loop dynamic range and build in powerful regeneration the G-OBOE is a perfect servo drive for applications requiring very high dynamics, extremely precise, smooth and very low speed processing combined with rapid movements.

Integrated Smart Fan operation (in 10A/230, 13/230, 6/480, 10/480 models) is activated only “when required” and thus significantly prolongs the fan’s life-time.

An auxiliary 24 VDC power supply is required to power the control and the 24VDC fan

The drives are easily set up and tuned using EASII tools software tools. This Windows-based application studio enables users to quickly and simply implement the servo drive for optimal use with the motor and the mechanical load.
