The panel of ST6560T4 4-axis match with two and four-phase motor drive of domestic and foreign manufacturers. In order to obtain the most satisfactory results, need to set a reasonable supply voltage and current. The high-speed performance depends on the degree of the motor supply voltage.but the current set value determines the output torque of the motor. 1 、 Power supply voltage In general, when the higher the supply voltage, more great torque at the motor high speed, and avoid the motor out of step at high speed.. On the other hand, the voltage too high may damage the drive, and work in high-voltage,vibratory at low speed Reference value of power between 12-33VDC 8A 2 、Set value of output current The larger of setting current, the greater of output torque in the same motor. But the problem is the larger current the more heat of motor and driver. So in general,we set the value at when it warm but not too hot on running at long-term. u At high speed mode of 4 and 6-wire: the output current equal or less rated value u Larger torque mode of 6-wire: output current is 70%of rated value. u Tandem-type connection of 8-wire:output current is 70%of rated value u Parallel connection of 8-wire:output current is 1.4times of rated value.
Notes: please operating motor 15-30 minutes when you finished the setting of current.If the motor temperature is too high, you should reduce the value. If reducing the current value, the motor output torque is not enough to improve the cooling conditions, are invited to ensure motor and drive are not hot.
