Integrated servo motors deliver triple torque
 

Integrated servo motors deliver triple torque

A new feature on the market for integrated servo drivers is the JVL MAC400 motor's provision of both three times the nominal torque at peak torque and full peak torque at all speeds, meaning that the motor's power can be utilised fully. Equally important is the fact that in the majority of applications a smaller motor rating can be used, since peak torque is normally only required during acceleration or braking (deceleration). And this means it is possible to achieve more compact machinery at lower prices.

JVL has had these two characteristics as key parameters throughout the development of the entire range of MAC integrated servo motors - and triple-torque with flat torque characteristics therefore also apply to the MAC050…141 and MAC800 motors.

The MAC400 therefore delivers 1.2kW peak power, while the MAC800 delivers 2.2kW peak. Given these characteristics, it is remarkable that JVL's research and development department achieved this performance without the use of a cooling fan, using only cooling fins. After the extensive development work, JVL now expects to have the MAC400 UL recognised; already now the MAC400 is UL pending.
