Product Features and Applications
The MC-4/11/03/400 is a single-axis servo drive in the ELAU PacDrive MC-4 family. It integrates the power stage and motion-control electronics in a compact unit for industrial automation systems.
Its principal specifications include 3 A RMS rated output current, up to 7.5 A RMS peak current for one second, a three-phase 380–480 V AC mains supply, and a 24 V DC control supply. The drive communicates with compatible PacDrive controllers through a SERCOS fiber-optic interface. <Cite refs={["turn290877search12","turn290877search3"]}/>
Typical applications include packaging machinery, material handling, labeling equipment, and synchronized motion systems. Actual compatibility depends on the installed controller, motor, encoder, hardware revision, and machine configuration.
