Product Description

The AX5021-0000 servo drive is a reliable solution for demanding motion control applications. Its robust cooling system maintains optimal internal temperatures during continuous operation or repetitive braking cycles.

A key strength is the integrated 250W braking resistor paired with support for an expansive 6kW external resistor. This dual braking capability handles more energy recuperation compared to units limited solely to internal circuits. Further energy absorption comes from a boosted 705μF DC link capacitance, lessening mechanical wear on brakes. Seamless integration into multi-axis platforms becomes possible through EtherCAT connectivity. Command and status data circulates quickly between the drive and controller software via this open interface. Installation and commissioning proceed efficiently using plug-and-play parameterization functions.

Precision movements demanding fast and consistent braking rely on the chopper's swift yet gentle conversion of kinetic energy to heat. This gentle conversion spares the attached motor and mechanics from shocks while preserving position accuracy. Personnel safety also improves through reduced component stress. Converting all motion-generated power for reuse presents many benefits. However, heat removal emerges as an engineering priority when coping with regeneration levels. With its potent cooling system always ensuring thermal equilibrium, the AX5021-0000 drive meets this prerequisite for extensive energy recovery in taxing industrial applications.
