Roboteq's RoboPads charge contact system offers a precise, high current charging solution for mobile #robots & #AGVs. This video shows how the magnetic activation controls connection/disconnection automatically, using power from the robot's motion alone. #roboteq #robotics #tech

During braking, regenerative voltage can equal or exceed supply voltage, possibly causing permanent damage. Our new SRK5K monitors this and instantly applies a resistive load, absorbing excess energy and restoring safe levels.

STO is a safety mechanism for motor drives that reliably brings the motor to a no-torque state, even in cases of a single fault in any part of the system. To achieve this we added special circuitry to our controllers. See link for more: https://t.co/7YUR3BqllJ

Our magnetic activated charge contacts were extended and retracted once per second for days and nights in a grueling test. After an impressive 721,000 cycles, they ceased to fully retract but were otherwise operational. Learn more:
