Working Principle

  1. Single/three-phase 120/240VAC mains input passes internal EMC filter and full-wave rectifier to generate stabilized low-voltage DC bus power
  2. High-speed DSP digital motion controller executes torque, velocity and position triple closed-loop control algorithms, outputs high-frequency PWM modulation signals to low-voltage high-current IGBT power stage
  3. IGBT power module converts DC bus voltage to three-phase high-current sinusoidal AC power to drive high-torque low-voltage AKM and DDL linear servo motors
  4. Motor-mounted high-resolution feedback sensor transmits real-time rotor position and velocity digital data back to drive universal feedback interface to form full closed-loop control cycle
  5. Dual EtherCAT bus interfaces receive synchronized motion command frames from upper master controller; internal drive processor distributes coordinated motion instructions to cascaded slave servo axes via ModuleBus expansion port

  3. 12-channel extended auxiliary I/O eliminates external PLC expansion module hardware cost for complex signal interlock applications
  4. Dual EtherCAT daisy-chain bus architecture simplifies multi-axis servo wiring and improves synchronization precision
  5. Integrated SIL2 STO safety circuit complies with international machinery safety standards without external safety relay hardware
  6. High power density compact cabinet layout reduces control cabinet footprint for heavy-duty packaging and metal processing automation lines

Applicable Industries

High-speed heavy transfer packaging machinery, metal cutting low-voltage servo axes, automated palletizing equipment, textile high-tension winding machinery, plastic blow molding equipment, automated assembly heavy-duty robotic actuators, logistics high-speed sorting conveyor systems

Installation Requirements

  1. Vertical mounting on standard 35 mm DIN rail inside sealed industrial low-voltage control cabinet
  2. Mandatory ventilation clearance: 60 mm top exhaust gap, 40 mm bottom intake gap, 25 mm lateral separation gap between adjacent high-current servo drives
  3. Cabinet high-temperature resistant forced cooling fan mandatory for continuous full-load operation at ambient temperature above 30°C
  4. All high-current motor power cables adopt thick cross-section shielded twisted pair cables with single-point shield grounding at cabinet earth bar
  5. Strictly separate wiring channels for high-current power cables and low-voltage encoder/I/O signal cables to block electromagnetic noise induction
  6. STO safety circuit wiring must strictly follow official low-voltage safety schematic drawings to maintain SIL2 safety certification validity

Usage Precautions

  1. Forbid exposed installation outside sealed control cabinet; conductive dust and humidity ingress creates short-circuit hazards for high-current power stage components
  2. Maintain input AC voltage strictly within 85–265 VAC operating range; sustained overvoltage permanently damages internal rectifier and IGBT power modules
  3. Execute full-load motor auto-tuning procedure before formal production operation; mismatched motor parameters trigger severe torque oscillation and overcurrent shutdown protection
  4. Never disconnect motor high-current power cable while drive remains energized; live disconnection generates large electric arcs that burn power stage terminal pins
  5. Install matched single/three-phase EMC filter on input power supply to fully comply with CE EMC electromagnetic compatibility standards
  6. Clean heat sink fins and cooling fan dust accumulation every 2 months in heavy-dust production workshops to prevent automatic overtemperature shutdown protection
