Good day I am so glad I found your webpage, I really found you by error, while I was looking on Digg
for something else, Nonetheless I am here now and
would just like to saay thanks a lot for a fantastic ost and a
all round exciting blog (I also love the theme/design), I
don’t have time to browse it all at the moment but I have bookmarked it and also added youur RSS feeds, so when I have
time I will be back to read a great deal more, Please do keep
up the great work.

Good post. I learn something totally new and challenging oon websites I stumbleupon everyday.
It will always be helpful to read through articles from other authors and
use a little something from other web sites.

It would be kind of hard for Aerotech to copy the Argon, considering that they’ve been making blue servo drives with metal cases for well over a decade. Internally the drives are quite different; Aerotech typically uses Firewire, and their smaller drives are DC powered. Copley Controls also makes blue servo drives, but at least the Accelnet models have plastic cases (I don’t have my Xenus drive handy to check on it….)

I am a end user i am no way associted to that website looking for a servo drive and came across a drive on Chinese site , thought they were copy of argon, trying to help , Amyl

All I see is some Guerrilla advertising, you know, where you enter someone’s blog and advertise your product on there. :-) The only similarity I see is that the units also have blue paint and that part of the design includes a box.

Indeed, they had quite similar paint ideas :) However, they don’t have anything to do with us.

ok I take good note and I foresee in implementing heat sinks and forced ventilation
thanks

Drive height is 50.5 mm and heat sinks add 24 mm. To get forced cooling, just add a fan to side of the drives blowing along heat sink fins.

Johann: the significance of heatsinks is more dramatic to power capacity. It could be like:
-500W without heat sinks, passive
-800W without heat sinks, fan
-1000W with heat sinks, passive
-1800W with heat sinks, fan

Please notice that these numbers are just a guess and need further characterisation (and that will be documented).

Do you plan a location for the establishment of a forced ventilation?

adding a half brick heat sinks it allows a small increase in output power?
expl:
without half brick heat sinks Maximum output 1500w
with half brick heat sinks Maximum output 1750W
