Based on Elmo Motion Control’s innovative ExtrIQ core technology, they support a wide range
of motor feedback options, programming capabilities and communication protocols.
2.1.1. Drive Description
The Hawk series of digital servo drives is designed to deliver “the highest density of power and
intelligence”. The Hawk delivers up to 4.8 kW of continuous power or 8.0 kW of peak power in
a 119. 6 cc (6.95 in³) package (80 x 24.5 x 61 mm or 3.15" x 0.965" x 2.4").
The Hawk is designed for OEMs. It operates from a DC power source in current, velocity,
position and advanced position modes, in conjunction with a permanent-magnet synchronous
brushless motor, DC brush motor, linear motor or voice coil. It is designed for use with any
type of sinusoidal and trapezoidal commutation, with vector control. The Hawk can operate as
a stand-alone device or as part of a multi-axis system in a distributed configuration on a real-
time network.
The Hawk drive is easily set up and tuned using Elmo’s Composer software tools. This Windows-
based application enables users to quickly and simply configure the servo drive for optimal use
with their motor. The Hawk, as part of the
ExtrIQ product line, is fully programmable with
Elmo Composer motion control language.
Power to the Hawk is provided by a 12 to 195 VDC isolated DC power source (not included with
the Hawk). A “smart” control-supply algorithm enables the Hawk to operate with only one
power supply with no need for an auxiliary power supply for the logic.
If backup functionality is required for storing control parameters in case of power-loss, an
external 12 to 195 VDC isolated supply should be connected (via the +VL terminal on the Hawk)
providing maximum flexibility and backup functionality when needed.
Note: This backup power supply can operate from any voltage source within the 12 to 195
VDC range. This is much more flexible than a standard 24 VDC power supply requirement.
If backup power is not needed, two terminals (VP and VL) are shorted so that the main power
supply will also power the control/logic supply. In this way there is no need for a separate
control/logic supply.
The Hawk is a PCB mounted device which enables efficient and economic implementation.
The Hawk is available in two models:
• The Standard Hawk is a basic servo drive which operates in current, velocity and position
modes including Follower and PT & PVT. It operates simultaneously via RS-232 and CAN DS
301, DS 305, DS 402 communications and features a third-generation programming
environment.
• The Advanced Hawk includes all the motion capabilities and communication options
included in the Standard model, as well as advanced positioning capabilities: ECAM, Dual
Loop and increased program size.
Both versions operate with RS-232 and CAN communication.
