Original Story: Newswiretoday.com

Elmo a leading provider of motion control solutions that meets rugged requirements for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and other applications operating in extreme environmental conditions will showcase Gold ExtrIQ intelligent servo drives at UAV 2014 Show (Booth 91), taking place in Bordeaux-Merignac Aeroparc, France, September 9-11, 2014.

Elmo's field proven Gold ExtrIQ Line is a standard series of durable motion control products designed, manufactured and tested for complex applications requiring high performance in harsh environments from -40° C to + 70° C, mechanical vibrations up to 14 grms and with space limitations. The entire Gold ExtrIQ Line maintains unmatched servo performance, compact sizes, high efficiency, negligible EMI, reliability and answers any servo requirement. The durability is verified by the most severe Environmental, EMC and Safety Standards. Worm Gear Speed Reducers are preferred by equipment manufacturers because of their versatility, compactness, durability and long life.

Elmo’s Gold Bee NANO servo drive, the newest member to the Gold ExtrIQ Line, delivers an ultra-high current of 50A/100VDC and provides over 4000 watts in 8.7 cm3 (0.53 inch3) will be on exhibit. This powerful and reliable servo drive weighs just 22 grams (0.77 oz.).

Also on exhibit will be the super compact Gold Eagle operating from a DC power source in ultra-high current. The servo drive delivers up to 11500 watts of continuous power. It operates in current, velocity, position and advanced position modes, in conjunction with a permanent-magnet synchronous brushless motor, DC brush motor, linear motor or voice coil.

Another impressive solution on display will be the Gold Hornet Series, ultra-miniature servo drives. This advanced and integrated high power density servo drive weighs 106 grams (3.74 oz.) and delivers up to 1600 watts of continuous power and 3200 watts of peak power.

Elmo’s feature rich Gold Lion Controller is a ready-to-use embedded motion controller specifically designed for servo drives in harsh environments resulting in high-level customization that offers tremendous design flexibility.

The ExtrIQ Gold Line is an integral part of Elmo's field proven motion control solution. It offers outstanding performance with rich features: intelligent motion functions (OC, Master-Slave Follower, Modulo, Dynamic Braking, ECAM, PIP Cascaded Vector Control, I2t Protection); DS-402 profile modes (cyclic position, velocity and current); the ability to handle any feedback (incremental encoders, analog encoders, absolute encoders, and resolvers); 1D/2D/3D error correction; up to 65 kW of power, STO safety standard compliance; UL and IEC 61800 certification to 800 VDC and 530 VAC.

Elmo Motion Control together with its French representative A2V Mecatronique will exhibit at the UAV Show taking place September 9-11, 2014 in Bordeaux-Merignac Aeroparc. An impressive series of robust motion control products for harsh environments will be on view at Booth #91.
