MR-E-40AG Mitsubishi Analog AC Servo Amplifier

The Mitsubishi MR-E Super Series General Purpose AC Servo System features unique functions and very compact dimensions. It was developed with great attention to a very quick and easy commissioning. Thanks to its high positioning accuracy and responsiveness, the Mitsubishi MR-E Super Series is an excellent choice for applications ranging from 100 W to 2 kW.

The Mitsubishi MR-E Super Series is manufactured with pulse-train input for position and internal speed control or analog input for speed and torque control. The amplifier features Mitsubishi Electric's auto-tuning and vibration suppression functions. Set-up and diagnosis is easy with the Windows based software MR-Configurator. Compared to its performance, the Mitsubishi MR-E Super Series is a well-priced product for very cost- effective and economical servo solutions.

The Mitsubishi MR-E Super Series General Purpose AC Servo System can perform operation in different control modes, e.g. position/internal speed control. Hence, it fits a wide range of applications such as precision positioning and smooth speed control of machine tools and general industrial machines (e.g. packaging, processing or labelling machines).

Up to 1 Mpps high-speed pulse train is used to control the speed and direction of the motor and execute precision positioning also taking advantage of the high encoder revolution of 131072 pulses/rev. With the position smoothing function a smoother start/stop can be made in response to a sudden position command. If the application demands to control smoothly the speed of the motor, the Mitsubishi MR-E Super Series also offers the possibility to switch "on-the-fly" to the internal speed modality. In this way it is possible to address up to (7) different parameter-driven speeds using (3) digital inputs.

External analog speed command (0 to ±10 V) or torque command (0 to ±8 V) are implemented making this new servo system suitable for those applications in which speed or torque has to be smoothly controlled.

For the Mitsubishi MR-E Super Series a wide range of motor sizes from low to medium inertia have been manufactured. Hence this new servo can be considered as a powerful system for any general-purpose application, but at the same time, a cost-effective solution for the replacement of stepping motors or DC servos. All MR-E Super servo motors are equipped with an incremental position encoder and offer a high level of internal protection.

The MR-E Super Series servo amplifiers ensure fast installation and setup, and make it possible to configure stable systems with very short response times no matter what application.

The real-time auto-tuning function from Mitsubishi Electric sets the servo's control parameters automatically, eliminating the need to calibrate the system for each individual application. Auto-tuning also works continuously while the system is in operation, making constant adjustments to cater for applications with fluctuating moments of inertia. This makes it possible to use the Mitsubishi MR-E Super Series in a much wider range of applications.

Increased dynamics and more precise positioning can be handled thanks to the high response frequency of 500 Hz.

The Mitsubishi MR-E Super Series has an automatic feature that enables the amplifier to minimize the effects of a vibrating load. For example, this innovative function can also suppress vibrations at the end of a tool arm as well as those in the drive train.

Connectors have been adapted for the servo amplifier terminal block and all connectors are located on the front of the servo amplifier which makes wiring fast and easy.

The compact component size is critically important to machine designers who are often called upon to squeeze all of the control solutions they need into the smallest deliverable package. This means machine designers don't have to make as many compromises to get the right motor and deliver the right power to the right place. The compact dimensions of the Mitsubishi MR-E Super Series enable flexible installation and economical design, which helps to keep the costs down and to be more competitive on the global market.
