MINAS LIQI servo drives (low cost)
Overview
50W to 1kW, 1-phase, 200V
MINAS LIQI series servo drives are ideal for applications that require an affordable technological upgrade to improve reliability and performance. Machines for simple food processing, packaging, printing, metal processing, even small linear robots are but a few example applications for which MINAS LIQI drives are cut out. In combination with Panasonic FP series PLCs, they can be used to realize simple motion solutions. Use our banner freeware PANATERM to configure MINAS LIQI.
Simple
Pulse train input
MINAS LIQI supports pulse train commands of up to 500kpps, adequate for simple positioning control. With 2500 pulses/revolution, the incremental encoder enables a resolution of 10000 pulses/revolution.
1kHz response frequency
A bandwidth of 1kHz guarantees quick response times, resulting in very low vibration.
Setup with PANATERM software via USB
MINAS LIQI servo drives can be set up with the freeware PANATERM via USB. Set all driver parameters and monitor important data such as position, speed and torque.
Functional

Real-time auto-gain tuning
MINAS LIQI features real-time auto-gain tuning just like MINAS A5 servo drives. By setting only the stiffness parameter, gain parameters are calculated automatically and in real time at each load inertia change. Thanks to the vibration suppression function, the drive’s performance is improved, helping protect equipment from damage.
Rotary switch (RSW)
Using the rotary switch (RSW) on the servo drive’s front panel, you can set the “stiffness” on site, directly manipulating the servo drive’s gain.
Damping filters, notch filters

MINAS LIQI drivers are equipped with damping and notch filters just like MINAS A5 servo drives.
MINAS LIQI supports up to 4 notch filters (range: 50Hz-5000Hz).
Damping filters reduce oscillations while starting and stopping. A frequency range of 1Hz to 200Hz is supported.
Powerful
With MINAS LIQI drives, simple positioning applications can be realized quickly, without sacrificing accuracy or speed. The advanced real-time auto-gain tuning function allows MINAS LIQI drives to be particularly efficient in combination with Panasonic FP series PLCs. Especially the compact FP0R and FP-X0 series, which are equipped with high-speed counters and advanced motion functions, fit perfectly.
Typical applications include small assembly and packaging machines, robots, positioners, automatic loaders, extruders, metering and other applications requiring precision, speed — and a user-friendly, inexpensive servo drive.

MINAS LIQI motors

MINAS LIQI AC servo motors are compact and highly dynamic. They are available in an output power range of 50W to 1kW (rated output torque: 0.16 Nm to 3.2 Nm), with or without holding brake. MINAS LIQI motors have a keyway shaft and are equipped with incremental encoders (2500 pulses / rev.).
