An ISO 9001:2015 company, Copley produces products of the highest quality in state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in the US and China. Copley drives carry a full 2-year warranty.

With over 35 years of experience in OEM partnerships, Copley’s application team combines with R&D to deliver worldclass, highly responsive support. Our global commitment is backed with sales offices and local technical resources in the US, Europe and Asia.

Why Ruggedized?

R-Series drives incorporate a range of command interfaces and communication channels for system integration flexibility. CANopen, an international standard for motion control, is proven in harsh environments. RS-232/422 interfaces enable control via ASCII or Serial binary commands. Step / direction and analog velocity / current command interfaces are ideal for integration into traditional architectures.

Installation Flexibility

Copley offers a comprehensive range of digital drives for brush, brushless and stepper motors. High power density panel-mount and PCBmount packages deliver installation flexibility. A complete set of feedback options are provided. Both AC and DC powered versions are available.

Ruggedized Drives

R-Series drives are ruggedized versions of Xenus, Accelnet, Stepnet and Plus drives. They deliver performance you can trust in the harshest environments. R-Series drives are designed to endure temperature extremes, high humidity, vibration and shock. Copley’s proven drive technology finds application in COTS military, nautical, aviation, oil refining and vehicle-based systems.

Configuration

Java based CME configuration software is powerful and intuitive. Comprehensive diagnostics, auto tuning and advanced oscilloscope tools simplify system commissioning. Auto-phasing eliminates time consuming rewire-and-try for feedback connections. Advanced frequency analysis tools and multi-loop filters provide control solutions.

Network Software

Copley distributed control software for CANopen makes system commissioning fast and simple. All network management is taken care of by a few commands linked into your application program. Copley supports two development environments. Copley Motion Libraries (CML) link into a C++ application program run on Windows, Linux and QNX. Copley Motion Objects (CMO) are .Net framework objects that can be used by VB and C#
