The DSC-10TT is our latest-generation control system, specifically developed for testing machines. It features advanced servo motor control chips and a multi-channel data acquisition and processing module, ensuring synchronized sampling, high-speed performance, and precise control. The system is primarily hardware-based, enhancing stability and reliability.
2. High-Efficiency, Professional Control Platform
The DSC-TT system integrates DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and MCU (Microcontroller Unit), combining DSP’s high-speed computation with MCU’s strong I/O control capabilities. This hybrid approach outperforms single DSP or 32-bit microcontroller solutions. Built-in motor control modules like PWM and QEI ensure key system functions are hardware-driven, guaranteeing safety and stability.
3. Parallel Sampling for Synchronized Data Acquisition
The system incorporates a specialized ASIC chip for real-time, synchronized sampling of load cells signals. This parallel sampling method eliminates loading and deformation inconsistencies that can occur with sequential sampling, ensuring accurate test results.
4. Hardware-Based Signal Filtering for Precision
The optical encoder module includes a 24-level hardware filter that refines sampling pulse signals, preventing errors caused by signal interference. This enhances positional accuracy and ensures stable, reliable performance of the pulse capture system.
5. Low-Level Hardware Control for Faster Response
ASIC chips handle essential tasks like sampling and condition monitoring, allowing the DSC-TT system to focus on precise PID calculations. This hardware-based approach improves reliability and significantly enhances control response speed. By executing PID adjustments and control output at the system’s core, it enables highly accurate closed-loop control at the lowest level.
Performance Characteristics of DSC-10TT
