Product Description

The Okuma MDUA-15-442-MA servo drive features four axes. The servo drive can work with both small and big servomotors offered by the manufacturer. The product helps the servomotor renders consistent performance when used in a robotic system. The device is responsible for transferring signals present in the command module present in the robot and translating them for an associated servomotor. This helps the motor determine how much movement should happen at a time resulting in smooth and consistent path trajectory as well as overall motion of the robot. The drive helps in controlling the torque, position and speed of the servomotor.

The drive adjusts the current and voltage supplied to the servomotor based on closed loop feedback. The product can feature up to three servo loops representing current, velocity and position. The device adjusts the output of the loops using feedback signals to produce the desired results. The unit amplifies the signal because the standard control signals are too low with respect to current and cannot power the motor windings that need high current levels. This is why a servo drive is also sometimes called a servo amplifier. It is possible to send this servo drive to any address irrespective of the country you live in.

The product typically functions as an inverter and can generate AC signals for driving a motor. This device is vastly used in factory automation and CNC machining industries. A servo drive can be either analog or digital. An analog drive helps in the amplification of electrical command signals and utilizes the feedback to realize the velocity and torque control of single-phase motors. In contrast, a digital drive supports advanced functions such as position control, pre-programmed motor moves and network communication. The digital version encompasses a microprocessor while the analog counterpart does not. The MDUA-15-442-MA drive is associated with a year’s Wake Industrial warranty.
