Schneider Electric’s Compact, High Power Integrated Servo and Stepper Drive, Lexium 38i, Increases Performance

Schneider Electric, the global industrial technology leader and motion control expert, has announced the launch of the Lexium 38i. This new integrated servo and stepper drive is compact, high-powered, and designed for high-precision applications. As part of the Modicon motion automation portfolio, the Lexium 38i strengthens Schneider Electric’s motion control solutions, contributing to sustainability and innovation within industrial systems.
 
Deployable across several industries, the new Lexium 38i Integrated servo and stepper drive presents a compact and advanced solution for decentralized motion control systems by seamlessly integrating drive and motor with servo and stepper technology into a single compact unit. This makes it ideal for original equipment manufacturers and machine builders by simplifying wiring, saving space, optimizing commissioning, facilitating maintenance and troubleshooting in motion control systems.
 
Engineered for energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness, the Lexium 38i integrated drive offers a higher power density than market references within a small footprint, resulting in superior performance while minimizing energy consumption. With an output power of up to 1.2 kW in the low voltage range, it provides machine builders with the flexibility to cover their entire range of low voltage devices, from stand-alone to integrated machines, using just one device. Additionally, it features integrated safety, improved connectivity, and a scalable design for seamless integration with diverse control systems and future expansion.

Key features of the Lexium 38i integrated servo and stepper drives include:

Flexible and scalable
The Lexium 38i offers a wide range of flexible and scalable configurations to meet specific machine requirements, providing greater design freedom and expandability for integrating specific features.

Small but mighty
The Lexium 38i offers up to 20% higher power density than market references, providing higher performance in a smaller footprint.

Easy integration, commissioning and operation
The Lexium 38i optimizes integration, commissioning, and operational processes thanks to standardized interfaces, reducing deployment time and installation labor. Additionally, an LED status bar enables easy device status monitoring.
