Celera Motion, a business unit of Novanta, has launched what it says are “the world’s smallest servo drives”.

Named the Denali Series, the new compact, ultra-fast servo drives are perfect for a variety of service robots, surgical robots, industrial grippers and lab automation applications.

Denali is the latest addition to Celera Motion’s line of premium-performance Ingenia servo drives.

Marc Vila, business director for servo drives at Celera, says: “Robotics is a very competitive market, evolving rapidly and requiring best-in-class servo drive technology.

“Application-focused servo drives like Denali, where we have included features specifically required for the advanced robotic market segment, dramatically help engineers to accelerate their designs, be more competitive and keep the focus on their core business.”

Denali offers an enhanced hardware architecture as well as optimized power management, with a minimum standby power consumption of down to 1.2 W.

The servo drives work in the 250 W power range and are designed for surgical robotics, end-effectors, haptic devices, small joints and other compact robotics applications.

The series features two versions:

Both versions are available with EtherCAT and CANopen communication protocols, specially optimized for demanding multi-axis applications. Denali supports EtherCAT with a bus latency down to 1 cycle. This improves the cost-efficiency of embedding multiple axes into a single PCB.

The Denali series offers versions that support multiple safety features for high-performance robotic applications where safety is paramount.

The Denali Series is the latest version of Ingenia’s Summit Servo Drives Series. Others include the Capitan Seriesand the Everest S Series.
