Product Description:

The BL3-D is an axis drive unit produced by Okuma as part of the BL Servo Motors series. In a machining cell, it sits between the CNC control and the motor, converting logic-level commands into three-phase power that governs speed, torque, and position on a single mechanical axis. By coordinating feedback with pulse-width-modulated output, the drive maintains the motion accuracy needed for tool changing, contour milling, and high-speed positioning in industrial automation.

This unit accepts a mains span of 170 to 242 V AC, so it can operate from standard factory distribution without a dedicated transformer. Its input frequency tolerance of 50/60 Hz allows the same hardware to run on either regional grid standard. The power stage is rated for a continuous 75 A, so it can deliver substantial current to the motor during acceleration and stall conditions. Incoming power is landed on the R/S/T terminals, which keeps the three mains connections clearly separated. A separate low-level supply enters through the CN10 (XB-DCPS) control-power connector, allowing the logic circuits to remain energized for diagnostics even when the main bus is locked out.

The motor’s three-phase leads are routed to the drive through the CN1 (XB-MTR) plug, which provides a keyed interface that helps prevent phase reversal during installation. Dynamic-braking hardware is linked by the CN20 (XB-DBR) jumper connector so regenerated energy can be shunted to a resistor bank instead of the DC bus. Parameter changes are handled with the front-panel SW1 to SW6 switch bank, which provides fixed binary selections for functions such as gain scaling or alarm masking. Real-time status is available on the M1/M2/M3/M4/IU/IV/VDC monitor terminals, allowing direct observation of motor current, DC-bus voltage, or phase balance without opening the control loop.
