Smallest High Power Servo Drive on the Market

Elmo Motion Control (Petach Tikva, Israel), a leading provider of advanced and cost-effective motion control solutions, offers its flagship Gold Twitter, the smallest, high-power servo drive on the market today. Weighing at just 18 g (less than 1 oz), and less than 13 cu cm in volume, the Gold Twitter delivers up to 4,000 W of qualitative power, ultra high current of 50A/100V with advanced servo capabilities and support for EtherCAT and CANopen fieldbus communication standards for deployment in any industrial application.

Gold Twitter is compliant with international safety and EMC standards and is an excellent solution for applications that require extremely high servo performance but are limited in space. In addition, the unit is mountable, thus ensuring high servo performance and savings in hardware and cabling.

Based on the premise that “the best way to dissipate heat is not to generate it in the first place,” the Gold Twitter incorporates proprietary FASST (Fast and Soft Switching Technology) that results in less than 99 percent efficiency with negligible EMI. “I’m proud of our ingenuity and innovation. I am not aware of any servo drive in the industry that approaches this sort of power and size density,” said John McLaughlin, a manager of Elmo USA.

The company also offers the superb Gold Drum HV, a compact high voltage servo drive that delivers up to 65,000 W of continuous power and runs optimally on any servo motor, supporting  “any feedback” sensor in single, dual and gantry loop configurations. Easily set up and tuned using Elmo Application Studio II (EASII) software, the Gold Twitter, Gold Drum HV, and the product line of Gold servo drivers operate as a single or multi-axis control solution in a distributed configuration real-time network.

The company has released its free advanced online EASII Experience RPS system that provides users with the ability to build and practice advance servo control, multi-axis solutions and EtherCAT networking. It allows building up a complete application online with no need to purchase or install any hardware or operating system.

Elmo designs and manufactures cutting-edge servo drives and network motion controllers that are one-stop solutions for any motion control technology. As a leading global company with over 25 years of experience and millions of servos at work worldwide, we bring our clients profitability and success. With a focus on performance, reliability, safety and standards compliance, our solutions are integrated in a wide variety of applications from industrial to extreme environment automation.
