round up DRIVES, MOTORS + SWITCHGEAR

Breaking boundaries in electric drives and controls

The motors come equipped with a quick locking mechanism which is simple, practical and reduces installation time. In the MS2N product line, intelligence progresses all the way up by storing the individual readings of every single motor as well as the saturation and temperature data, in the motor data memory. The MS2N Servo Motor comes equipped with a certified SIL3 Encoder, which allows for maximum level of safety for all safety functions.This includes safe absolute end position which replaces the hardware limit switch by software, 31 configurable safe cam areas, reduced commissioning due to semi-automatic support and PC-free device replacement when servicing. The motor has a maximum torque error range of 5%, which compares well with the standard torque error range of between +5% and -35%. Applications in which the product may be used include force and pressure control in robotics and production machines, and condition monitoring, such as detection of production faults or bad parts.

The new MS2N Synchronous Servo Motor is Tectra Automation’s latest product offering, breaking boundaries in the electric drives and controls industry. The new MS2N servo motor range combines high dynamics with compact dimensions and excellent energy efficiency, with more torque, higher speeds, a practical single-cable connection and extensive options for the highest servo mechanism requirements. The new MS2N includes over 50 motor types in six motor sizes, five motor lengths, and more than 20 fully configurable options, covering maximum torque up to 360 Nm and maximum

rotational speeds up to 9 000 rpm. It is 30% smaller than its predecessor, has a low rotor inertia for maximum dynamics and high rotor inertia for optimal adaption motor masses. The MS2N Servo Motor product line comprises a range of motors for indus- trial applications.
