Parker TWIN-N/SPD-N series is a line of compact, high-performance servo drives designed for multi-axis applications where space and cost efficiency are crucial.
Features
TWIN-N is a series of fully-digital, compact and high performance servo drives for the simultaneous and independent control of two brushless motors. The TWIN-N series is suitable for multiaxis applications where compact size and reduced costs are priority factors.
The TWIN-N is complemented by the SPD-N, which adds a single axis option. The TWIN-N comprises 3 different models which are able to supply, on a continuative basis, a nominal current from 2 A to 8 A (per axis) and a peak current of 4 A to 16 A (per axis). The TWIN-N/SPD-N drives are designed for single phase/three phase 230 VAC supply or 380-480 VAC three-phase supply.
TWIN-N/SPD-N drives are designed for market sectors such as packaging, pick&place, tobacco machines, automatic stores, and automatic machinery in general, where rapid acceleration and deceleration are critical application factors.

Overview
- The parameter based TWIN-N/SPD-N operator interface makes it easy to configure the drive. Standard configurations of different kinds make it suitable for many applications.
- The TWIN-N can control two brushless motors by a single drive. This feature allows space savings within the electrical panel for multi-axis configurations.
- TWIN-N comprises two separate drives that can be used totally independently. The SPD-N drive is the single drive, single axis version.
- The drive features a series of integrated auxiliary functions that allow reduced application programming, offering considerable cost saving.
- It uses widely used industrial programming standards and guarantees a high degree of flexibility in selecting inputs and outputs.
- It is also possible to create custom functions within the drive, such as speed or position loop gain control, or active torque control for tool wear monitoring, etc. It can be configured through the serial keypad, serial comms or CANbus.
Fieldbus
- The TWIN-N/SPD-N series have CANbus built in as standard, and can therefore be integrated directly into a CAN network without further additional parts.
- The CANbus port on board the drive can be programmed to dialogue with the CANopen DS301/DS402 profile or with propriety profile SBCCan (factory default), which is a propriety motion bus on the CANbus layer specifically optimised for motion control applications.
- The TWIN-N/SPD-N series can be integrated into networks with Profibus-DP and Devicenet protocol.
- This connection is via an external Bridge, using the CANbus port programmed with SBCCan protocol. EtherCAT bus, based on the industrial standard Ethernet, has been implemented within the TWIN-N option so to best exploit the industrial PC capabilities.
Applications:
The TWIN-N/SPD-N drives are well-suited for various industries and applications, including:
- Packaging machines
- Pick-and-place systems
- Tobacco machines
- Automatic storage systems
- General automation machinery
