Characteristics
- These units automate positioning mechanisms with a feed screw. By replacing the feed screw operating handle with EPU-100, device positioning mechanisms can be automated.
- Through the use of the dedicated transceivers EPC-100 (EPC-100) or EPC-200-CC (EPC-200-CC)EPC-210-EIP（EPC-210-EIP）, wireless batch operation of up to 32 Wireless Positioning Units is possible. Signal wiring from the operating terminal is not required. Ideal for devices and equipment with multiple positioning locations, like packaging machines and carton formers.
- Controller is built in. Extra space for amps, controllers and other equipment in addition to the main unit is not required.
- With the use of an external interface connector, wired communication is possible as well as the connection of a movable range control limit sensor or a forced travel switch for abnormalities.
- For configuration and control of EPU-100, the dedicated software EPU-COM is required. The dedicated software is available free of charge. Please download from the NBK website.
- Combining with the dedicated lock adapter EPL enables position retention (locking).
