ATI Industrial Automation: Interfaces de Sistema F/T

NET F/T

Conecta-se com a Ethernet, EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet e/ou sistemas de barramento CAN. A interface do navegador web do NET F/T permite uma fácil configuração e setup através da configuração Ethernet presente em todos os modelos NetBox. A interface Ethernet envia dados streaming de alta velocidade, utilizando pacotes UDP. Uma interface PROFINET também está disponível opcionalmente. Também disponível como opção de interface OEM, o OEM Net CAN foi projetado para ser integrado em braços pequenos de robôs. O OEM Net CAN oferece um barramento CAN e a interface serial RS-485 para comunicação com o computador hospedeiro, que desempenha os cálculos necessários utilizando os códigos fornecidos pela ATI.

NET F/T

EtherCAT F/T

Connects to one 4-pin, M12 connector for EtherCAT signal and power. Integrated signal conditioning, data acquisition, and a single-port EtherCAT interface are all contained in the sensor. The EtherCAT F/T interface is available on the transducer for larger ATI transducer models with IP60 or IP65 protection. Also available as an OEM interface option, the ECATOEM interface board was designed to be integrated into small robot arms. ECATOEM is compatible with all ATI TW model transducers with an EC8 connector option.

EtherCAT F/T

Digital F/T

Connects to RS-485 bus and uses power from a user-supplied DC power source. The user’s computer converts the transducer output into force and torque data using ATI software. The electronics for this interface can be located on the transducer (except for Nano- and Mini-series transducers). Also available as an OEM interface option, the Net CAN OEM was designed to be integrated into small robot arms. The Net CAN OEM offers a CAN Bus and an RS‑485 serial interface to communicate with a host computer, which performs the necessary calculations using ATI supplied code. (Not available on Nano or Mini sensor styles)

DAQ F/T

Conecta-se com uma variedade de sistemas tais como PCI, PCIe, PXI, USB e mais por meio de placas de aquisição de dados padrão. As saídas dos seis medidores de tensão do transdutor são amplificadas e condicionadas para que possam ser conectadas diretamente às entradas de placas de aquisição de dados padrão. Após a digitalização das voltagens dos medidores de tensão, o software da ATI faz os cálculos de matriz da calibragem no computador hospedeiro para converter os dados de medição de tensão em dados de força e torque.

TWE F/T

Usado tipicamente para OEMs especiais e aplicações de pesquisa, o sistema TWE (Transdutor Sem Componentes Eletrônicos) requer amplificação e condicionamento de sinal fornecido pelo cliente. Este sistema consiste apenas do transdutor, informação de calibragem e código fonte. O cliente precisa fornecer a interface elétrica, amplificação e condicionamento de sinal de acordo com a nossa documentação. Esse procedimento requer uma habilidade de alto nível em eletrônica e experiência para entender completamente o manual do usuário. O cliente precisa também implementar uma interface de software, mas pode usar o código fornecido pela ATI para os cálculos necessários.

Data rates of the different F/T systems types

Type	Output Format	Maximum Output Rate	Latency	Filtering Options	Anti-Aliasing Filtering	Thresholding Discrete I/O
Net F/T	Std. mode (Fieldbus or Ethernet)	7000 Hz	500 μs ‡	5 Hz to 838 Hz, digital filtering	2nd order @ 1000 Hz	One-bit output. The standard mechanical relay has 6 ms latency. The optional solid-state relay has 500 μs latency.
Net F/T	RDT mode (Ethernet only)	7000 Hz	288 μs ‡	5 Hz to 838 Hz, digital filtering	2nd order @ 1000 Hz
EtherCAT F/T	EtherCAT	1000 Hz	up to 1 ms	2 Hz to 360 Hz, digital filtering	2nd order @ 1000 Hz	One-bit solid-state relay output with 500 μs latency.

DAQ F/T	Digital from DAQ card	16.67 kHz† to 41.67 kHz†	1/OutputRate	Averaging	2nd order @ 5.1 kHz	None. Thresholding can be custom implemented in user’s software.
TWE F/T	Voltage	Practically infinite	Negligible	None	None	None. Thresholding can be custom implemented in user’s software.

	† the DAQ output rate is the data rate of the DAQ board being used divided by (6) channels ‡ Latency values do not include delays from the user's network

Output Format:	Format of the data.
Maximum Output Rate:	The maximum number of samples per second received by the user.
Latency:	The maximum amount of time it takes for a load to be output and received by the user. The latency data given in the table above is for the maximum output rate. At lower output rates the latency will increase.
Filtering Options:	Digital filters available to the user. These may be disabled.
Anti-Aliasing Filter:	The type of low-pass filter used to remove high-frequency noise from the transducer's signals.
Thresholding Discrete I/O:	Types of discrete I/O to signal the state of user-defined thresholding statements.
Note:	Resonance frequencies for transducers are listed with transducer specifications. Frequency response is dependent on sensor tooling mass and configuration, is specific to each application, and if desired is the responsibility of the customer to determine.

Synchronization of F/T Systems with other measurement systems

Interface	Summary	Synchronization Method	Latency
Net F/T	Computer programming required to access data on network. Streaming outputs rates are accurate to ±0.5%.	Available synchronization methods: Data coming over Ethernet UDP protocol contain sample-count index fields. Data can get synchronized programmatically. Data packets can get requested individually. The requesting software controls the acquisition time and can synchronize F/T data with other data sources. Data coming over CAN bus are synchronized with other data acquisition systems on the same network.	Latency between actual event and Ethernet output is 288 μs (using the RDT UDP protocol). Note that the latency between a UDP data request and the actual data output can be up to 5 ms.
EtherCAT F/T	EtherCAT has native synchronization.	EtherCAT’s native synchronization.	Latency between actual event and EtherCAT output is up to 1 ms.
Digital F/T	Computer programming required to use Digital F/T. Data streams at a constant 7000 Hz, accurate to ±0.5%.	Data is autonomously streamed at 7000 Hz (every 143 μs) without any special synchronization capabilities.	Latency is 144 μs at 1.25 MBaud.
DAQ F/T	Fairly easy, most accurate synchronization, computer programming required to access drivers and DAQ card.	Raw transducer signals can be measured together with other signals on the same data acquisition system. (Transducer signal data have to be converted to force and torque data using ATI driver.)	Latency between actual event and analog output is a few microseconds. Update rate depends on data acquisition system settings.
