Key Features

Supports Battery Drive

Wide Allowable Operating Voltage Range That Allows Battery Drive

As long as the voltage is within the range, the motor can be operated without triggering the alarm.

Allowable Operating Voltage Range
Can be Driven Even When Battery Voltage is Low

The maximum rotation speed is limited according to the voltage to avoid the motor stopping due to battery failure.

Maximum Speed Limiting Characteristics at Low Supply Voltage

Contributes to Compact, High Power Equipment Design

Hollow Shaft Flat Gearhead With High Strength and High Permissible Torque

High Strength

High permissible radial load enables powerful and high-spec operation.
- *200 W/400 W, 10 mm from the gearhead mounting surface
Unsaturated Permissible Torque

Since the permissible torque is not saturated, the motor's torque can be utilized to the fullest.
- *400 W, up to 3000 r/min

Space and Cost Saving

The hollow output shaft allows direct connection with the drive shaft.
By eliminating the need for connecting parts to the shaft, it saves space and contributes to the reduction of cost for parts.

Mechanical and Electrical Brakes Can be Used Separately or Together

Mechanical Brakes Using Electromagnetic Brakes

The electromagnetic brake type is suitable for position holding when stopped and for vertical operation (gravitational operation). When the power is turned OFF, such as during a blackout, the motor stops instantaneously to hold the load in place.

Vertical Operation (Gravitational operation)
[Stabilizes and Holds the Wheels of the AGV]

Please note that there are limitations to the power supply when using in vertical operation (gravitational operation).

*Regenerative energy is generated when the motor shaft is turned by an external force, such as when moving downwards on an incline or stopping suddenly. Since the driver does not have a regenerative energy processing function, the protective functions of the power supply and driver may be activated. Use a power supply or battery with sufficiently large output power capacitance and overvoltage resistance.

Generates a Holding Force When an External Force is Applied, Load Holding Function (Digital setting type, RS-485 communication type)

It can be used as an electrical holding brake^* when stopping without a mechanical brake.

*It can hold loads of up to 50 % of rated torque.

Advantages of No Mechanical Brake Mechanism

Long life with no maintenance required due to non-wear parts
Minimizing space usage and weight of the equipment

Note

If the power supply to the driver is turned off, the holding force dissipates. This cannot be used to prevent a fall when stopped.

Applications

Applications that frequently start and stop

Equipped With Convenient Functions for Speed Control

An Example of Other Functions

Acceleration and Deceleration Time	Acceleration and deceleration time can be set.
Torque limiting	This function limits the motor output torque. A TLC signal is output when the set limiting value is reached.
Alarm	Stops operation and outputs signal Main circuit overheat/overvoltage/undervoltage/overload, etc.
Warning	A signals is output at the warning level value before it becomes an alarm. The motor operation will continue. Main circuit overheat/undervoltage/overload, etc.

*1: A network converter (sold separately) is required for industrial network control.

*2: 100~3000 r/min for 100 W

*3: 80~3000 r/min for 100 W

Selectable from I/O, Modbus (RTU), and industrial network control

Control from a host controller can be performed by either I/O, Modbus (RTU), or industrial network control.
Control over the industrial network is achieved through a network converter (sold separately), which is a communication protocol converter.

I/O Control

The operation data (rotation speed, etc.) is set in advance in the driver, and signals are input from the PLC to operate at the setting data.

Modbus (RTU) Control

Easy to set operation data, parameters, and input operation commands from PLCs and other devices.

Industrial Network Control via Network Converter

This configuration uses a network converter to connect to an industrial network (sold separately). Operation data setting and operation commands input are available from the network. A single converter can connect and control multiple motors.
