Product Description:

The MIV06-3-V5 is an inverter unit produced by Okuma and assigned to the MIV Servo Drives series. Acting as the power interface between the machine controller and servo motors, it modulates DC link energy so that axis drives receive the required voltage and current during motion profiles. In industrial automation cells, this unit supplies the regulated power that allows rapid positioning, coordinated spindle changes, and repeatable feed-rate execution on lathes, machining centers, and handling gantries. By regulating output to each axis, it supports smooth acceleration, controlled deceleration, and stable response when machine loads change during operation.

The control logic inside the drive is energized from a dedicated 24 VDC supply, which keeps monitoring circuits active even when the main link is discharged. Motor power is drawn from a shared DC bus that holds a nominal potential of 300 VDC, and this common link lets multiple axes recover and reuse braking energy. The L-side output of the inverter is rated at 6.0 kW, which is mechanically equivalent to 8 hp. This output level corresponds to the continuous shaft power the connected servo can deliver without thermal derating. Cabinet planning must also account for the vertical space the housing occupies, because its overall height is 380 mm and adequate clearance must be left for airflow and service access.

Mechanical installation loads are modest because the enclosure weighs only 7.3 kg, reducing stress on lightweight panel structures. Laterally, the unit uses a narrow footprint of 100 mm, allowing adjacent drives to be mounted closely, while a depth of 325 mm sets the minimum cabinet rail-to-door distance. Power input wiring lands on an XT1 terminal that accepts an M6 ring-lug screw, and control I/O is clustered on an XT2 terminal sized for an M5 fastener. These thread sizes help support proper lug selection and secure terminal connections during installation. The compact enclosure also helps the drive fit cabinets where several motion components must share limited mounting space.
