This amplifier section is known as the SmartAmp AIB (amp-in-base), and it provides
power amplifiers and full servo control.
Adept SmartAmp AIB features:
• On-board digital I/O
• Low EMI for use with noise sensitive equipment
• No external fan for quiet robot operation
• 8 kHz servo rate delivers low positional errors and superior path following
• Sine wave commutation lowers cogging torque and improves path following
• Digital feed forward design maximizes efficiency, torque, and velocity
• Temperature sensors on all amplifiers and motors for maximum reliability and
easy troubleshooting
