Product Description

The VAC1-D8-B is a digital servo drive designed by Okuma to control the operation of electrical motors used in the industrial servo system. This servo drive is a very durable device designed to meet international quality standards; it can also be configured to support the operation of a wide range of industrial production machines such as textile machines, metal forming machines and even robotic machines. This servo drive is also a self-diagnostic device; it contains various sensors and actuators which monitors the operation of all parts of the servo system in real-time; in the case of any operational error, the servo drive immediately alerts the operator by displaying appropriate error messages on the seven-segmented light-emitting diodes integrated into its housing unit.

The VAC1-D8-B servo drive generates a leakage current of about 3.5 milliamperes during operation. It is important for operators to ensure the servo drive is properly grounded before it is switched on to prevent electrical accidents. Also, the VAC1-D8-B servo drive should be installed into a control cabinet that offers it complete protection against the interference of dust and other small solid materials. The housing of this servo drive is about 530 millimeters long and 310 millimeters wide; it also has a thickness of about 248 millimeters. Also, the total weight of this industrial controller is about 22 kilograms.

The VAC1-D8-B servo drive regulates its internal temperature via forced ventilation; it features an air blower and a heatsink which works together to carry out this temperature regulation process. Although this servo drive is designed to be absolutely safe for industrial operation, only persons that are familiar with Okuma products and have gone through the documentation of this controller should be allowed to handle the device.
