The Master Link MLK-FZ card manages the data exchange between the central unit of the Z32 CNC FlorenZ Series and all the peripherals (servodrives and I/O's).

The MLK module connections are:

• RTE (Real Time Ethernet): connection with the Z32 CNC central unit
• Z-Link: optical fiber bus for digital I/O's, analog references, analog inputs, encoder inputs (2mS sampling time)
• Z-Star2: optical fiber bus for SPevo digital servodrives (250μS sampling time)

• Allows PE3 I/O modules mounted beside (see I/O Modules description)
• Manages Z-Link I/O peripherals
• Manages directly up to 8 SPevo digital servodrives through the on-board Z-Star2 channel

• The additional Z-Star2 channel on the expansion card EXP-FZ1, manages 8 digital SPevo servodrives, allowing a total of 16 digital SPevo servodrives managed
• The presence of the EXP-FZ1 doesn't allow PE3 modules mounted beside

• The additional three Z-Star2 channels on the expansion card EXP-FZ3, manages 8 digital SPevo servodrives per channel, allowing a total of 32 digital SPevo servodrives managed
• The presence of the EXP-FZ3 doesn't allow PE3 modules mounted beside

In case no expansion card (EXP-FZ1, EXP-FZ3) is present, up to 8 PE3 I/O modules can be connected directly to the Master-Link, like it's shown in the picture:

PE3 modules directly connected to the Master Link

Possible solutions:

I/O Z-Link Modules

• The Z-Link optical fibre bus connects I/O peripherals to the Master-Link MLK
• The Z-Link is a loop optical fibre connection: departing from the Master-Link, connecting all the peripherals, and returning back to the Master Link
• Up to 25 peripherals are supported, with a mix of any type in any order
• Length of a single optical-fibre connection (between two consecutive peripherals): up to 30 m

The optical fibre, is totally immune to electricl noise. This means a complete compliace with EMC regulations.

Architecture scheme

D.Electron designs and produces digital drives for:

• 400Vac brushless motors (axes)
• 400Vac linear motors (axes)
• 400Vac torque motors (axes)
• 400Vac induction motors (spindles)
• 400Vac field-weakiening synchronous motors (spindles)
  
  

Z-Star2 drives system is composed of a power supply module that generates the 600Vdc bus and various power modules connected to the DC bus.

The communication between drives and Master-Link is done through an optical fibre connection: the optical fibre connection departs from the Master-Link, passes through all the servodrives and returns back to the Master-Link creating a loop connection, also called Z-Star2 channel.
