Description
Application Scenarios:
In a precision rolling mill for thin-gauge steel, maintaining exact and synchronized speed between multiple drive sections is critical to prevent tension fluctuations that cause tearing or rippling in the metal strip. The main drive motors are controlled by ABB ACS880 drives, each requiring ultra-precise feedback. A high-resolution, 1440-pulse-per-revolution (PPR) sin/cos encoder is mounted on each motor shaft. The raw analog sine wave signals from this encoder are susceptible to electrical noise over the long cable runs in the mill. The ABB YXU144 pulse transformer unit is installed in the drive cabinet. It receives these delicate sin/cos signals, performs conditioning and noise rejection, and multiplies/interpolates them internally. It outputs a robust, digital 1440 PPR square wave signal (channels A, B, and Z) that the drive’s control board can process with high immunity to interference. This ensures the drive receives a flawless representation of the motor’s exact position, enabling the sophisticated torque control algorithms to keep each stand in perfect sync, resulting in consistent, high-quality steel production with near-zero defects.

-
Note on Output Pulse Count: The 1440 PPR output is a high-resolution standard. This provides 0.25 degrees of mechanical resolution per pulse (360°/1440), which is essential for precise speed control and low-speed operation.
-
Note on Signal Conditioning: A key function is electrical isolation and amplification, converting weak analog encoder signals into robust digital levels immune to the harsh electrical environment of a drive cabinet.
