drylin® D1 Motor Drive Controller

Select, click, control...

A simple, cost-effective motor drive controller designed for effortless automation.

With the intuitive web-based application, you can quickly set the travel mode, positions, rates of acceleration, speed and pause times of your linear axis. The simulation below allows you to test the motor controller accordingly. When using the actual web application and motor controller, your input is transmitted exactly as it is within this simulator. There is no separate transmission..

Under 'Travel profiles', you can configure up to eight lines and apply the control parameters to the linear axis. In the 'Mode' field, use HOM to set the zero point or use ABS to define the absolute position for movement on the linear axis. Choose the destination by entering the position on the axis or by using the Teach function. Enter the values for acceleration, speed and deceleration and, if necessary, a pause time. Under 'Subsequent block', specify the number of the next travel profile.

Benefits:

No software or app installation necessary, fast commissioning
Control possible via smartphone (browser), tablet or laptop
Simple and intuitive user interface, control system set up in just a few minutes
Compatible with many industrial controllers (Siemens S7 / Beckhoff)
For DC, EC and stepper motors

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions

The D1 can control one motor.

The D1 dryve supports input signals that include: Digital Inputs/Outputs, Analog Inputs, Step/Direction, CANopen, and Modbus TCP Gateway

The D1 can support stepper motors, EC/BLDC motors, and DC motors. All of these types of motors are provided by igus® and can be easily paired with dryve® motor controllers.

No software download or app installation is necessary to program the D1. All D1 programming can be done via a program within your web browser.

No, a PLC is not required to control motors with the D1. However, the D1 can still communicate with PLCs.

Compared to other manufacturers, the D1 is easy to program. igus® offers free support from our specialists that can help in person or remotely. Free sample programs are also offered for various industrial manufacturers.

The dryve ® experience provides numerous videos about the control systems igus® offers. These videos cover applications, commissioning, and general help topics, for example understanding status messages from the controller.

The D1 can process line driver and single-ended encoder signals. The controller can process two phases from the Hall sensor for DC motors and three phases from the Hall sensor for EC/BLDC motors. Analog signals can also be processed (0VDC to 10VDC and -10VDC to 10VDC).

The logic of the D1 requires 12VDC to 24VDC. The load can process 12VDC to 48VDC.

The D1 has an output current of 7A. The boost current, which lasts for two seconds, is 21A.

The D1 is our most versatile controller that will work with all igus motors. Cost savings can be achieved by employing corresponding controllers that offer a limited set of functions compared to the D1 (D7, D8, D9). Additionally, the individual drives are further simplified to allow controls like jog mode, loop mode and pulse mode (D7-1 for instance). This also applies to our DC motor drives (D3, D5, D6).

The D1 has the option of Tip / Teach (Learn in). This is done via the binary inputs.

The D1 stands out from other drives due to its easy commissioning, support for three different motor types (Stepper / EC/BLDC / DC), intuitive user interface, and igus® post-sale service.

The D1 supports open-loop. If the controlled motor has an encoder, closed-loop operation is also possible.
