Motor driver carrier |
 |
Motor driver : This block is all self contained. It consists of
up to 3 stepper motor drivers (PWM generators and amplifiers) and the appropriate
power supply (SMPS). In case of a motor failure, you can swap the motor (can be
difficult, depending on the mechanical setup), you can swap the control board or
the drivers including it's power supply (very easy, just pull out the board and
swap it) . This accomplishes a minimal down time of the system in case of
electronic failures.
