Position Input Devices
The signatureACE® requires a
position input device in most applications. This device assures precise
measurement of the process variable, usually force as a function of tool
position. The most common device is a resolver mounted directly to the
press crank. Certain high speed presses suffer frequent resolver failures
due to improper aftermarket installation. ST has kits for most high-speed
presses to alleviate this problem.

HiRes Resolver: We have tested resolvers from various manufacturers for 10
years and determined that most units suffer from weak bearing packs. This
is especially true in high-speed applications. Our units are lower cost than
competitive units and frequently are used as a replacement due to higher
reliability. Cables are available in standard lengths of 30, 50 and
100'. Custom lengths can be ordered with 2 week delivery.
/BKA
Bruderer Mounting Kit: We have found a high failure rate among
resolvers that have been installed aftermarket on Bruderer Presses. We
developed the /BKA kit in an attempt to provide a high reliability solution to
mounting our resolver on high speed Bruderer presses in the form of a bolt-on
kit. Minor modification of an existing pulley is required and included in
price. Resolver is shown in above illustration but priced
separately.

Resolver Converter: Frequently resolvers are used for critical
functions in existing press controls and are installed by the manufacturer.
Using an existing resolver that is properly installed can save considerable time
and expense during installation. However, the resolver can only be
connected to one device. This converter provides the ability to connect an
existing resolver to the signatureACE® system without affecting existing
systems. Cables are available in standard lengths of 30, 50 and 100'.
Custom lengths can be ordered with 2 week delivery.
