Integrated Servomotors are rated to 400 and 750 W.

July 7, 2004 - MAC Brushless Servomotors include controller/driver, Hall sensor, and encoder in single unit. Models MAC50-141 operate from 24 or 48 Vdc, while Models MAC400-800 require 115/230 V. Interface possibilities include PC/PLC with drive commands via RS232/485/422, pulse/direction or quadrature input, and register mode via 4 inputs or serial commands. Motors are also available with fieldbus option or built-in micro PLC with IF THEN ELSE commands.

JVL INDUSTRI ELEKTRONIC Offers New Bigger MAC Motors

JVL's Integrated MAC servo motors are now up to 400 and 750W. Includes controller/driver, Hall sensor and encoder, all in one compact unit. Unique adaptation to any application with wide range of plug-in expansion modules.

The MAC series of brushless servo motors with integrated electronics is a major step forward. All the necessary electronics in a servo system is integrated in the motor itself.

A traditional motor system has in the past typically been based on a central controller unit placed away from the motor. This circumstance has the negative effect that the installation costs is a major part of the total expenses in building machinery.

The basic idea in the MAC motors is to minimize these costs but also to make a component that is much better protected against electrical noise which can be a typical problem when using long cables between controller and motor.

The servomotor, hallsensor, encoder and electronics are specially developed by JVL so that they together form a closed unit where the power driver and controller is mounted inside the motor in a closed section.

The advantages by this solution are:

• De-central intelligence.

• Simple installation. No cables between motor and driver.

• EMC safe. Switching noise remains within motor.

• Compact. Does not take space in cabinet. Typically a 3/5 core cable is used from PLC or similar to MAC motor.

• 24 or 48VDC power for MAC50-141, 115/230V for MAC400-800

• Low price.

Interface possibilities with the MAC motor:

• From PC/PLC with drive commands via RS232/RS485/RS422

• Pulse/direction or quadrature inputs.

• 10 bit (MAC50-141), 12bit (MAC400-800) ±10V input for speed or torque control. A+B encoder output.

• Register mode via 4 inputs or serial commands

• Option for µ PLC built-in with IF THEN ELSE commands.

• Option for Fieldbus. ProfibusDP, Canbus, CANopen, Devicenet, Ethernet, Wireless.
