Product Description:

The U730-012E18 Servo Motor is designed and manufactured by Sanyo Denki, which produces a maximum rated power of 300 W, appropriate for mid-capacity automation use with constant rotational force. This servo motor has a rated speed of 3000 rpm, designed to facilitate smooth and effective motion cycles during operation.

The operating environment of the U730-012E18 motor is characterized by a temperature range of 0°C to 40°C, ideal for indoor and temperature-controlled applications. This servo motor has a nominal voltage of 75 V DC to match standard industrial DC power supply systems, to provide a stable source of energy, and minimize the possibility of voltage drop. This servo motor works using a nominal current of 5 A to minimize thermal buildup during prolonged use and to maintain steady torque delivery without violating safe electrical margins. The position feedback system of this motor is an optical shaft encoder, model number E681000C30, with incremental output feedback. This encoder has a 1000 Pulses per Revolution (PPR) sensor resolution for accurate position monitoring in closed-loop control, providing reliable motion control in precision applications. The interface of this motor’s sensor uses a 6-pin rectangular connector that has a metal clip for secure mounting and to avoid accidental release when subjected to vibration or movement.

The power interface of this servo is supplied via a 6-pin Molex-compatible connector for a stable and steady power supply, and such interfaces facilitate easy mounting and system integration. Mechanically, this motor’s output shaft is a cylindrical one with a key slot for reliable coupling to mechanical devices such as gears or pulleys, and it also facilitates torque transmission with little slip. This U730-012E18 servo motor has a flanged mounting configuration, secured by four bolts to enable reliable mounting in vertical or horizontal positions. Its face-mount design makes it easier to attach to flat panels or structural members.

Frequently Asked Questions about U730-012E18:

Q: Why is an optical shaft encoder used instead of a magnetic one in U730-012E18?

A: Optical encoders offer higher resolution and resistance to electrical noise. This improves accuracy in environments where magnetic interference is present.

Q: How does the 1000 PPR encoder in U730-012E18 enhance positioning accuracy?

A: It provides high-resolution feedback for precise control and fine-tuned movements. This enables better synchronization in applications requiring tight positional tolerance.

Q: How does the metal clip on the sensor connector improve reliability?

A: The metal clip secures the connection under vibration or mechanical movement. It helps prevent communication loss during high-speed operation.

Q: Why is an incremental output format used in the position sensor?

A: Incremental sensors provide real-time relative position feedback. They are faster and simpler to implement in high-speed motion systems.

Q: What advantage does the cylindrical shaft with key slot offer in U730-012E18?

A: It ensures a locked mechanical fit with mating components. This prevents rotational slippage during torque transfer.
