Item Description:


This is a lightly used set of Parker MX80L linear servo stages
that includes ViX500AH drivers and Mean Well power supplies.
The MX80L's were kept as a spare units and were used very little
and the Vix500AH drives and power supplies are brand new.
This is a complete setup that comes with everything needed to
operate the MX80L stages, and the only thing the buyer will need to
do is provide AC power cords to power the three Mean Well supplies.
This MX80L actuator has the highest resolution

encoder available, with a resolution of 0.01um

or 10 nanometer (0.01 microns = 0.00001mm).

To get the 0.01um resolution you will need to use

Renishaw interpolater that is included with

this auction. But this MX80L stage can also be 

used without the Renishaw interpolaters to 

achieve a resolution of 5um (5microns = 0.005mm).

The advantage of not using the Renishaw

interpolater is that it will increase the maximum

speed of the MX80L actuator. If you use the Renishaw

interpolater the max speed for the 0.01um resolution 

will be limited to about 25mm/sec, but if you bypass

the Renishaw interpolater you can achieve speeds

up to 5meters/sec with the 5um encoder resolution. 

The Vix500AH servo drives will work with step/direction software 
like Mach3 or similar. In the videos I am using a SmoothStepper 
breakout board (not included with this auction) and that is the
breakout board I would recommend if you are going to use Mach3 
software because you will need a high 'pulse output' to operate
the MX80L at the speeds shown in the videos I have included.



MX80L Manufacturer Notes:

Parker's MX80L Miniature Stage, the smallest linear servo-motor driven positioner in the

Vix500AH Manufacturer Notes:

The freely-programmable, intelligent ViX servo drive delivers high levels of functionality and flexibility in programmable motion control. With outputs in the 250-500 VA power range, ViX uses field-oriented digital control technology, to give enhanced dynamic performance with improved efficiency. Housed within an extremely compact case, ViX is suitable either for direct panel mounting or for attachment to a standard DIN rail.


The ViX series servo drive is produced in two versions having continuous current ratings of 2.5 A and 5 A at motor bus voltages up to 80VDC. A peak current capability of three times the continuous rating provides an outstanding acceleration performance. The device offers the choice of either resolver or encoder feedback (user selectable). To assist with initial commissioning, the drive can correct most motor and feedback wiring errors automatically.


ViX500 Servo Drive/Controller Features:

• Power Output Rating : 500 VA

• Drive Input Supply : 48...80VDC

• Output Current : continuous 5.0 Arms / peak 15 Arms for 2 seconds

• Analog Control or Built-in Controller (using Parker's proven EASI code)

• Powerful EASI-V Front-End Software

• Programmable Resolution

• Encoder and Resolver Feedback Supported

• High-Resolution Sine-Cosine Feedback Option (for use with Parker MX Linear Motor Positioners)

• Optional CANopen/RS485 Interface

• Field-oriented control for improved dynamic performance

• Panel or DIN rail mounting

• Compatible with Parker servo motors


A powerful front-end software package is supplied with the drive and permits straightforward, rapid configuration and tuning. When used with Parker servo motors, only the motor type number is required for full configuration. ViX intelligent drives incorporate a powerful controller using Parker's wellproven EASI command language. As well as carrying out all basic motion control functions, the controller performs more advanced operations such as external encoder following and registration moves. All necessary configuration is performed by software. In addition to an RS232C interface which is included in the standard drive, an optional factory-installed fieldbus module allows for both CANopen and RS485 communication. The base version of the drive can be controlled by step-direction signals in addition to an analog velocity or torque demand. ViX forms part of a new, fully-integrated system of motion control components which includes digital servo and stepper drives, power supplies, operator panels and extension I/Os. These components complement Parker's range of mechanical positioning systems which includes precision tables, electric cylinders and linear actuators.
