Motion Control Solution – Copley Controls Xenus XTL-230-40 | Xenus Series
The Copley Controls Xenus XTL-230-40 is a high-performance digital servo drive engineered for demanding industrial motion control applications. Operating on 230VAC single-phase or three-phase input with a 40A peak output current, this drive delivers precise torque, velocity, and position control for brushless and brush-type servo motors. Its compact panel-mount form factor and broad communication protocol support make it a preferred choice for OEMs and system integrators worldwide.
Where This Product Is Used
The XTL-230-40 is deployed across a wide range of precision motion applications:
- CNC Machining Centers – Axis control for milling, turning, and grinding machines requiring sub-micron positioning accuracy.
- Industrial Robotics – Joint actuation in articulated arms, SCARA robots, and collaborative robot platforms.
- Semiconductor & Electronics Manufacturing – Wafer handling, pick-and-place, and PCB assembly equipment where smooth, repeatable motion is critical.
- Medical Devices – Surgical robots, imaging gantries, and infusion pump mechanisms demanding high reliability and low noise.
- Packaging Machinery – High-speed indexing, filling, and sealing lines with synchronised multi-axis coordination.

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Is the XTL-230-40 compatible with EtherCAT?
A: The base XTL-230-40 uses CANopen (DS-402). For EtherCAT, Copley Controls offers the Xenus XEL series. Contact us to confirm the correct variant for your fieldbus.
Q: Can this drive control a linear servo motor?
A: Yes. The XTL-230-40 supports brushless linear motors with incremental encoder or Hall-effect feedback, provided the motor’s peak current does not exceed 40A.
Q: What software is used for commissioning?
A: Copley Motion Explorer (CME2) is the free Windows-based tool for drive setup, auto-tuning, and diagnostics. It connects via RS-232.
Q: Is a regenerative resistor required?
A: For applications with high-inertia loads or frequent deceleration cycles, an external regenerative resistor is recommended. Konmask can advise on sizing.
Q: Do you provide a warranty?
A: Yes. All units sold by Konmask.com carry a 90-day functional warranty. Extended warranty options are available on request.
Q: Can I get a datasheet or wiring diagram?
A: Yes. Email support@konmask.com with your order reference and we will provide the official Copley Controls documentation.
