• Propelled by four 300 HP inverters drawing a Mega-Watt of power
• Six Hydraulic servo modules can apply 1,000,000 pounds of force to the pavement
• Distributed control system utilizing fiber optic field bus and wireless Ethernet

Electronics Assembly Tool

Project Keys:

• 5 axis of stepper control with 0.5 micron linear encoder feedback
• Custom software developed in Visual Basic allowed the machine features (5 axis position, data acquisition, temperature, and weight systems) to be programmed via custom “G-Code” type commands
• Data acquisition and machine control in one 19” rack console
• Integrated temperature and weight control systems
