Vote for this product, until August 23rd. 2020 (see category A, company KEB Automation)

The Drive Controller Combivert F6 from KEB Automation is frequency inverter and servo drive in one device. It is applicable for control of different motor technologies with or without encoder. The safe operation of machines often requires safety functions to limit speeds, directions or axis positions.

The Combivert F6 offers scalable safety functions directly in the drive and in the new device variant Pro also many functions without external encoder – unlike previous solutions with classic, safe encoder feedback. In this way, safe solutions can be implemented, for example, in applications in which no encoder signal is possible. Encoderless safety functions offer cost-efficient options for simple motion monitoring in addition to more individual machine concepts.
