Schneider Electric has launched the Lexium 38i, a more compact and higher-powered integrated servo and stepper drive designed for higher-precision applications. As part of the Modicon motion automation portfolio, the Lexium 38i offers a solution for decentralized motion control systems by integrating drive and motor with servo and stepper technology into a single compact unit.
Key Features of the Lexium 38i Integrated Servo and Stepper Drives
Flexible and Scalable: The Lexium 38i offers a range of configurations to meet specific machine requirements, providing increased design freedom and expandability for integrating specific features.
Small but Higher Performance: The Lexium 38i offers up to 20 percent higher power density, providing higher performance in a smaller footprint.
Easier Integration, Commissioning, and Operation: The Lexium 38i helps to further optimize integration, commissioning, and operational processes due to standardized interfaces, helping to reduce deployment time and installation labor. An LED status bar helps to provide easier device status monitoring.
Applications and Benefits
The Lexium 38i is suited for original equipment manufacturers and machine builders, designed to help simplify wiring, save space, and further optimize commissioning, maintenance, and troubleshooting processes. It offers up to 1.2 kW output power in the low voltage range, covering a range of machine requirements.
By providing integrated safety, improved connectivity, and a compact design, the Lexium 38i helps to enhance motion control performance while increasing energy efficiency. Schneider Electric continues to develop solutions designed to align with increased sustainability and efficiency in industrial systems.
