New Machinery Drive with Intuitive Control Panel



The new ACS380 machinery drive is part of ABB's all-compatible drives portfolio designed to offer technically compatible drives, as well as an all-compatible solution for people, processes, business and environmental goals. The ACS380 offers an intuitive control panel with an icon-based menu for easy and smart commissioning of the drive. All essential features are built-in as standard, which reduces the need for additional hardware and simplifies drive selection.

The ACS380 is available in power range 0.5 to 10 HP and voltages 200 to 480 V. It is designed for accurate speed and torque control without additional components.

The drive offers EMC and connectivity variants for ease of integration and connectivity, designed especially for machine builders that install hundreds of drives per year. There is a fixed space in the machine for automation and motor control, and the drive needs to meet the space restrictions and connectivity requirements (fieldbus, I/O etc.). It is designed to be one drive that fits different needs, from product customization to volume customers.

To further meet the needs of machine builders, ABB offers programmable logic controllers, human-machine interfaces, various motors and other low-voltage products for a complete machine control solution. These can be programmed using a single software suite called Automation Builder, including Drive composer and other useful tools to design and monitor the machine's control logic.
