Mitsubishi Electric
TSN compatible
The TSN-compatible servo drives of the Melservo MR-J5 series from Mitsubishi Electric offer a response behavior of 3.5 kHz and a minimum cycle time of 31.25 µs.
With the associated 'Melservo-J5' motion module, users can also synchronize up to 256 axes. During commissioning, the quick tuning function automatically generates all parameters within approx. 0.3 s. The machine is then ready for operation immediately after the servo is enabled. The integration of 'CC-Link IE TSN' (Time Sensitive Network) technology with transmission speeds of 1 Gbit/s ensures the synchronization of all connected devices, including safety devices, which can be connected in the same network as classic control products. All safety functions such as STO/SS1/SS2/SOS/SBC/SLS/SSM/SDI/SLI/SLT are configured in the software, making Mitsubishi devices IEC/EN-61800-5-2 compliant for simplified safety certification.
Other network protocols such as Ethercat (CANopen over Ethercat, CiA 402) are also offered as standard. Functions for predictive maintenance are also integrated. These functions are supported by the manufacturer's 'Maisart AI' technology. It enables the servo drive series to detect signs of wear on mechanical machine components long before cyclical maintenance is required.
