U3 Servo Motors

Product catalog summary
Overview: The U3 ServoMotor series by Phase Motion Control offers a variety of brushless PM AC servomotors designed for high dynamic control systems. These motors are available in different sizes with continuous torque ranging from 3 Nm to 1500 Nm and come in air-cooled, fan-cooled, and water-cooled versions.
Specifications: The motors feature a minimal inertia rotor for fast dynamic response, with options for additional inertia or a flywheel. They include a round shaft for clamping with conical hubs, and an optional key can be provided. The motors are equipped with a PM safety brake using rare earth permanent magnets, eliminating brake pads and reducing pollution risks.
Design and Protection: The motors have a single-piece extruded frame with IP65 protection (IP54 for fan-cooled versions), suitable for food and chemical applications. They include standard circular connectors and high flexibility cables, with position feedback sensors like Heidenhain absolute magnetic encoders and optional sinusoidal optical encoders or resolvers.
Technical Features: The U3 series uses sintered high-temperature rare earth magnets and features Class F motor insulation and Class H winding insulation. Thermal protection is provided by PTC 130 and KTY 84-130 or PT 1000 sensors. The motors are balanced to G 6.3 standards, with G 2.5 available on request.
Cooling and Sensors: Cooling options include natural, fan, and water cooling. Various sensors are available, including ENDAT and resolver types, with minimized EMC impact due to reduced stray capacitance.
Performance and Connections: The motors offer high torque density and low rotor inertia, with heavy-duty, life-lubricated bearings. Power connections vary by motor size, with specific configurations for signal and power connectors. Wiring recommendations include shielded cables and series inductance for long power cables.
Performance Curves and Ratings: The document includes performance curves for overload rating and thermal derating, with detailed specifications for each motor model, including rated speed, stall torque, rated power, and efficiency.
Ordering Information: The document provides detailed ordering codes for customization, including options for position sensors, brakes, connectors, thermal sensors, and shaft configurations.
Specifications: The document provides detailed specifications for U313 and U318 series servo motors, including efficiency, knee speed, maximum torque, current, and mechanical speed. It outlines the mechanical data such as inertia and mass, and technical data for holding brakes.
Procedures: Test conditions are specified, including water inlet temperature and chopper frequency requirements. The document also details the ordering code and options for customization, such as position sensors, brakes, connectors, and thermal sensors.
Standards and Norms: The document references DIN standards for shaft dimensions and mechanical coupling, emphasizing the importance of rigid mechanical coupling and high angular stiffness joints.
Recommendations: Application guidelines suggest replacing conventional motors with brushless drives for improved performance. It advises careful selection of system parameters and understanding the capabilities of brushless drive systems.
Key Data from Tables: Efficiency ranges from 86% to 97% across different models. Maximum torque values are specified for various models, with the highest being 3500 Nm. Knee speeds and maximum saturation speeds are provided for both 380Vac and 480Vac configurations.
Critical Information: Emphasizes the need for understanding new technology characteristics to avoid unexpected problems. It highlights the importance of selecting appropriate drive and mechanical linkage for optimal performance.
Introduction to Brushless Motors: Brushless motors are likened to loudspeakers due to their short response time and low inertia, which allows them to accurately follow control signals. The design of these systems requires an interdisciplinary approach, considering mechanical, electrical, and electronic factors.
System Design Considerations: Key design choices include mechanical linkages, transmission ratios, and electronic feedback strategies. The system's performance is influenced by the quality of sensors and the control algorithm.
Operational Principles: Brushless servo systems consist of an electronic drive, a servo motor, and feedback sensors. These components operate in a control loop to maintain desired motion characteristics, such as constant speed, by adjusting motor current based on sensor feedback.
Performance and Limitations: The speed accuracy of brushless drives is largely independent of the motor but depends on sensor quality and control algorithms. Mechanical linkages often limit system dynamics, and issues like noise and overheating can arise from mechanical inaccuracies rather than motor faults.
Design Optimization: Optimal drive design involves selecting appropriate transmission ratios and conversion types. Direct drive applications maximize control bandwidth and accuracy. Various transmission systems, such as timing belts and gear reducers, have different impacts on control bandwidth and system performance.
Application Classification: Applications are categorized into power services and position control. Power services focus on supplying power with less emphasis on dynamic performance, while position control requires precise and rapid movements.
Economic Considerations: For power services, economic optimization involves balancing motor and transmission costs. In dynamic applications, inertial matching can guide gear ratio selection, but it is not the sole consideration.
Motor and Gear Ratio Considerations: The document discusses the importance of selecting the appropriate transmission ratio for motors, emphasizing that a ratio based solely on the motor is flawed. It suggests that the best ratio should be equal to or less than the inertial ratio, considering both motor and reducer costs. High ratios can lead to reduced control bandwidth and accuracy, prompting a shift towards direct drives. For systems with high load inertia, achieving a high control bandwidth is crucial, requiring high-quality, stiff mechanical linkages without backlash.
Direct Drive and Torsional Stiffness: Direct drives necessitate checking the torsional stiffness of the system, especially for long and thin motors. The U3 Motor range offers options for both long, narrow motors for high acceleration with low inertia loads, and short, stocky motors for high inertia loads. The document provides formulas for calculating torsional stiffness and resonance frequency, advising checks on torsional resonance frequency for applications with large inertia and short settling times.
Control Strategy Selection: Three main control strategies are outlined: torque control, speed control, and position control. Torque control is the simplest and most robust, suitable for applications requiring force control. It requires minimal sensors and offers high stability. Speed control is traditional, while position control is used in digital drives for precise synchronization of multiple axes. The document suggests using torque control in multi-axis applications with modern NCs or controller boards for simplicity and cost-effectiveness.
Drive and Motor Sizing Verification: After selecting the motor and transmission, verifying the correct sizing is essential. For steady applications, checking the maximum load against motor and electronics limits suffices. For variable loads, a detailed process involving speed/time diagrams, inertia transfer, and torque calculations is necessary. The document provides a step-by-step guide for this verification process.
Motor Size Verification: Brushless motors are evaluated based on peak torque, thermal, and electric sizing. The document outlines checks for demagnetization current, temperature rise, and electric sizing to ensure the motor operates within acceptable limits. Excessive temperature rise is a primary reason for selecting a larger motor.
Worldwide Support and Distribution: The document concludes with contact information for Phase Motion Control's support and distribution network in France, Italy, Austria, and the USA.
