Overview

PI's single-axis motion controller A-811.CE offers a fully integrated electronics solution with a controller and servo drive in a compact benchtop housing. The A-811.CE controller is designed and optimized for operating PIglide air-bearing linear and rotation stages, and other PI stages which are equipped with servo motor and high-resolution encoders.

The standard controller is equipped with inputs for incremental and absolute encoders. Support for sine/cosine encoders has an integrated interpolation factor of up to 65536x (16 bit). The controller has an integrated flash memory for stored motion programs and parameters.

It is possible to operate the A-811.CE controller in stand-alone mode via stored programs or an external PC. A PC is required for programming and startup. The complete software is included in the scope of delivery.

If the controller is purchased together with a PIglide air bearing stage or positioning system, PI takes care of servo tuning, startup of the controller, and error calibration, and supplies a complete ready-to-use positioning system.

The A-811.CE features the state-of-the-art ACS ECMsa motion controller with integrated servo drive.
