Argus^PLUS Module R71 (GEM)

Ultra-compact, multi-communication servo drives for AGVs and robotics

The Argus^PLUS Module R71 series delivers exceptional performance and versatility in an ultra-compact 78.7 x 60.1 x 23.4 mm form factor, ideal for AGVs and robotics applications. Operating from 9-55 VDC with 30A continuous current capability, these drives support comprehensive communication options including EtherCAT, ETHERNET/IP, MODBUS-TCP, and TCP-IP protocols. The series accommodates DC brush, DC brushless, linear motors, and voice coil actuators with multiple command interfaces including analog, PWM, and step/direction control. Safe Torque Off functionality reduces system complexity for safety-critical applications, while extensive encoder support including BISS, SSI, and EnDat ensures precise positioning and control.
