Panasonic – Servo Drive Minas A6 Multi

The new servo drive system, which was tailored for Europe, reduces the space requirement in the control cabinet by up to 64 % compared to standard drives

Panasonic – Servo Drive Minas A6 Multi
The simple plug-and-play solution is ideal for the fast, tool-free replacement of individual modules from a network of multi-axis servo drives.

The new Panasonic MINAS A6 Multi 400V servo drive system was specially developed for the European market. With a slim, 50mm wide book size format, each drive controller can control two axes, which reduces the space requirement in the control cabinet by up to 64 % compared to standard drives.

In addition to the compact dimensions, the Minas A6 multi-drive comes with additional advantages for installation in the control cabinet. The front-mounted DC bus connection system, developed by Weidmüller, enables uncomplicated and time-saving installation. This means that the drive can be installed and set up completely without tools.

The OMNIMATE® Power BUS connection system - Quick and simple installation of energy recovery by DC-Link for drives

The innovative latch-in bus system consists of two different busbar connectors with spring contacts. They enable a fast, tool-free connection of individual modules in addition to the connection of the entire module network to the power supply. A significant advantage of the modular system is the possibility of connecting intermediate circuits to the front or top of the device. Thus, the system is ideally adaptable to any particular installation conditions.

Panasonic Electric Works was very happy to get a perfect fitting solution for the requirements of servo drives. Thanks to a multilateral development team, we designed a great solution not only for but with Panasonic. Now we are happy to bring it to the market, so that other companies can benefit, too.

The OMNIMATE® Power Hybrid connector the perfect three-in-one solution for motor connection

This hybrid motor connector simultaneously unites power, signals and pluggable EMC shield support. You save space on the PCB, on the outer side of the housing, and in the electrical cabinet. The self-snapping one-handed interlock mechanism requires only one plugging step and thus speeds up installation and maintenance procedures. It is easy to handle and interlocks automatically – even in difficult installation positions.

The pluggable shield support with special EMC spring contact strip. This enables the large-area, permanent and vibration-proof shield connection to the device housing. Thanks to finger safety on both sides of the male and female connectors, this solution is also suitable for applications with reverse voltage.
