Whether cost-effective compact servo drives or complex multi-axis systems for the highest demands - with our drive solutions, we offer you everything you need for the optimum automation of your machines. With the components of our drive technology, the E°Darc family, you can configure suitable drive systems with extensive functionality from simple transport tasks to complex applications.We configure our servo motors individually and tailored to your application, because service makes all the difference.

Electric buffering/energy recovery

Our DCB capacitor energy storage solution is ideal for peak shaving and energy recovery applications.This ready-to-connect complete solution for the control cabinet offers easy commissioning, low installation costs, and is compatible with drive systems from a wide range of manufacturers.Regenerative drive technology is ideal for all applications with energy peaks - where kinetic energy is released, the use of intelligent storage modules makes sense.This allows you to reduce the CO₂ footprint of your machines and achieve a competitive advantage of up to 40% reduced energy costs.

The strengths of Eckelmann drive technology

• Functional safety in the drive (SIL3)
• Industry-specific technology functions
• UL-certified technology (incl. control cabinet construction)
• Brake energy recovery (KERS)
• Customer-specific solutions in hardware and software

Eckelmann solutions support you to stay on the safe side with our versatile spectrum of functional safety components, from Safety PLCs to safe drive technology.

In addition to components with Functional Safety according to IEC 62061, individually configurable safety functions are available.

This sophisticated approach allows Eckelmann to offer scalable and flexible solutions for machine safety in every application – TÜV certified according to SIL3 or PL.

Safe controller E°SLC 89
Scalability is king when it comes to safety logic performance!

The Eckelmann E°SLC89 safety PLC provides OEMs with a SIL3 and PL e certified, fully integrable safety master for your machine concept. Codesys Safety development system ensures an easy realisation of ambitious safety requirements, fully integrated in your PLC project. Using FSoE protocol ensures a swift and safe communication to sensor and drive level making the E°SLC89 to the centre of you machine’s entire safety concept.

Safe I/O modules
Compact, flexible, and modular.

Safe UBM I/O modules provide digital interface for the modular E°SLC89 PLC, scalable according to your needs. Freedom of design is guaranteed through use of UBM bus couplers allowing a realisation of both centralised and decentralised safety circuits.

Safe I/O supply modules
Simple but effective.

Even without a dedicated safety PLC and a complex logic, implementation of basic safety concepts can be realised using the safe I/O supply modules of the UBM series. The straightforward functionality requires no programming efforts and guarantees a ready to use application.

Functional safety in the E°Darc Ci servo drive

Eckelmann safety drive technology assures protection of operators and minimizes hazards of mechanical components. The E°Darc Ci series are certified according to IEC 62061 complying with safety integrity level 3 (SIL3) in order to guarantee safety functionality in high-end applications.

Customised safety functions

The modular E°Darc Ci servo system enables an easy integration of additional hardware expanding safety functionality according to individual requirements such as, a standstill monitor for high-speed spindle applications with speeds of up to 40,000 rpm.

Reducing space requirements to the bare minimum: components are integrated into the drive system in order to ensure a maximum of efficiency. Cost optimisation through dispensing with unnecessary standard components and housings.
