B&R 8BVI0220HCSS.000-1 Servo Drive Module

B&R 8BVI0220HCSS.000-1 Servo Drive Module (ACOPOSmulti Power Module)

 

 

The B&R 8BVI0220HCSS.000-1 is a high-power servo inverter / drive module from the B&R ACOPOSmulti system. It is a single-axis power stage module that controls AC servo motors with high precision and is designed for industrial multi-axis motion systems.

It is not a PLC, but the core power amplifier part of a motion control system.

• Very fast switching control (up to 20 kHz)
• Integrated protection:
  • Overload
  • Short circuit
  • Ground fault
• Modular ACOPOSmulti architecture (scalable system)
• Supports high-end multi-axis machines
• Safe motion support (industrial safety systems)
• Flexible cooling (cold plate / rack integration)

So:

• ❌ Not a PLC CPU
• ❌ Not an encoder module
• ❌ Not a communication module
• ✔ It is a servo power stage (inverter module)

Applications

• CNC machine tools
• Robotics systems
• High-speed packaging lines
• Printing machinery
• Semiconductor equipment
• Multi-axis automation systems
