Description
The Mitsubishi MR-J4-20A is a 0.2 kW AC servo amplifier from Mitsubishi Electric’s MELSERVO-J4 series. It’s an industrial automation component designed to control a small AC servo motor for precise positioning, speed, and torque control in various applications.
Here’s a breakdown of the key features of the MR-J4-20A:
- AC Servo Amplifier: Regulates the power delivered to a connected AC servo motor, enabling controlled motion.
- 0.2 kW Power Rating: Provides a maximum power output of 0.2 kilowatts (kW) to drive the motor, suitable for lower power applications.
- MELSERVO-J4 Series: Part of the MELSERVO-J4 family of servo amplifiers known for reliability and performance.
- Possible Features:
- Built-in dynamic brake for holding the motor shaft stationary when powered off, enhancing safety (presence not always guaranteed, check specifications).
- Basic control modes like position control, velocity control, and torque control for essential motion profiles.
- Communication protocols like SSCNET III/H for integration with some industrial controllers (compatibility may vary).
- IP20 environmental rating, indicating suitability for indoor environments with limited dust and moisture.
Applications (due to lower power rating):
- Light-duty Machine Tools: Precise positioning and control of cutting tools in smaller CNC machines, drills, or engraving machines.
- Small Robots: Joint actuation in robots for delicate tasks like assembly, sorting, or inspection requiring lower torque.
- Material Handling: Controlled movement of lighter materials or parts on conveyor belts or pick-and-place systems.
- Packaging Machinery: Precise positioning and control of packaging materials for handling smaller or lighter items.
- Lab Automation: Controlled movement of components or samples in laboratory equipment.
