Boost Performance

ULTRA-COMPACT DESIGN

The Capitan footprint has been minimized to an extremely low profile, resulting in a lightweight design.

BEST-IN-CLASS SERVO PERFORMANCE

Fast current and servo loops, with PWM frequencies up to 200 kHz delivering best-in-class performance.

MULTIPLE INTEGRATION OPTIONS

Ready-to-use Capitan XCR allows quick system start-up. The pluggable module, Capitan NET and Capitan CORE, allow easy integration into carrier boards.

SAFETY FIRST

Capitan has been designed to meet industrial functional safety standards to ensure continuous operation safety. STO inputs are integrated, rated to SIL-3 PLe.

SUPERIOR POWER MANAGEMENT

Efficiency up to 99% due to state-of-the-art power stage and standby power consumption down to 1.12 W, the Capitan Series sets a new standard for servo drive power management.

DEMANDING MULTI-AXIS APPLICATIONS

Capitan supports EtherCAT with a bus latency down to 2 cycles. Support for CANopen and high-speed SPI bus communication is available.

Capitan Series Features

ULTRA FLAT

Extremely low profile, enabling ease of integration for multiple applications.

99% Efficiency

Efficiency up to 99% due to state-of-the-art transistor technology. The Capitan sets new standards for low heat dissipation in servo drives.

PWM Frequency up to 200 Khz

Operation at PWM frequencies up to 200 kHz, while sustaining negligible EMI.

Low Standby Power Consumption

Reduce heat with a low standby power consumption down to 1.12 W.

Lightweight

18 g for Capitan CORE and Capitan NET versions.

Low Latency

EtherCAT bus latency down to 2 cycles, 125% faster than comparable servo drives.

High Speed SPI Bus

Capitan CORE can be controlled through an SPI bus with command update rates up to 30 kHz. Improve cost-efficiency from embedding multiple axes into a single PCB.

EtherCAT / CANopen

Capitan offers versions for CANopen or EtherCAT communications.

Ultra fast Servo Loops

Current loop running at 50 kHz, position and velocity loops at 25 kHz – Capitan enables the best performance possible from your motor.

Supporting Multiple Motor Types

DC brushed and rotary brushless motor compatibility.

Wide Feedback Support

Digital Halls, Quadrature Incremental Encoder, BiSS-C, Dual BiSS-C Daisy-Chained, SSI

Motion Modes

Profile Position, Profile Velocity, Cyclic Sync Position, Cyclic Sync Velocity, Cyclic Sync Current, Cyclic Sync Torque, and Homing motion modes available

Functional Safety

Designed for STO SIL3 PLe safety standard.

High Power Density

The smallest servo drive in the world for its power range and functionality. Designed with robotics developers in mind – when space is at a premium.

Solder Free

Connect the Capitan NET or Capitan CORE directly to PCBs without soldering if your continuous current is below ten amperes.

Daisy Chain BiSS-C

Connect two BiSS-C encoders on daisy chain to the Capitan servo drive and reduce the wiring .

Maximized Bus Voltae Utilization

Capitan power stage has been optimized to maximize the bus voltage utilization up to 96%.

Ready for Multi-Axis Architechtures

Commanded through an ultra-fast and safe SPI bus, providing maximum design flexibility for multi-axis applications.

Guided Configuration

MotionLab3 configuration software is free with every Capitan servo drive. Configure and tune your drive for quick application integration.

Plug-in and Ready to Use

Capitan Series offers versions for plug-in integration into PCB designs (Capitan NET and Capitan CORE) and connection through a connectors interface (Capitan XCR).
