Standalone drives are a low-cost option
Motor Technology has introduced a new low-cost option to its range of multi-axis MackDRIVE servo drives from Axor Industries. The new MackINDY is a range of servo drives and motors designed for single and low-axis-count applications where an economy solution is required. The range includes five servo drive units in two housing sizes up to a power rating of 2,500W.
The 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 Amp drives are enclosed in a metal casing, providing sturdy mounting, excellent EMC shielding and compact dimensions just 4cm wide. Also available are 5 and 8 Amp units in the same housing with a fan cooling unit that increases the width by only 16mm. As with the the MackDRIVE range the new MackINDY series operates direct-on-line, without the need for a transformer. To aid cost reduction the MackINDY’s logic circuit is powered by the same single phase 230Vac, 50/60Hz mains supply.
