Multi-Network Servo Drives



Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc. has introduced MR-J4-TM multi-network servo drives with EtherNet/IP and EtherCAT interfaces. A PROFINET interface will be available later this year.

"The MR-J4-TM multi-network servo drive combines the industry-leading performance of the MR-J4 family of servos with common industrial Ethernet protocols," said Bryan Knight, Automation Solutions Team Leader and Product Manager, Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc. The Advanced Vibration Suppression Control II, One-Touch Auto-Tuning, 2.5 kHz speed frequency response and 4,194,304 pulse per revolution encoder resolution are suited for easier integration into new and existing machine designs.

Key benefits of the MR-J4-TM multi-network servo drives include:

  • Dual 100BASE-TX Ethernet ports in line, tree and star topologies for maximum flexibility in wiring layout
  • Advanced One-Touch Auto-Tuning for optimum performance with no tuning experience necessary
  • 2.5 kHz speed frequency response for short settling time
  • High resolution 4,194,304 pulse/revolution absolute encoders for high speed and accuracy
  • Advanced Vibration Suppression Control II for vibration suppression on both the load and the machine base.

The MR-J4-TM also includes standard IEC61158 Type12 CAN application protocol over EtherCAT (CoE), IEC61800-7 CiA402 drive profile. It also comes with add-on instructions for EtherNet/IP networks using ControlLogix or CompactLogix controllers.
