MPL-B580J-MJ72AA

The MPL-B580J-MJ72AA is a servo motor that is manufactured by Allen-Bradley. Servo motors are industry popular motion and position control elements. Unlike ordinary motors, a servo motor’s rotation can be controlled alongside its output Torque. To function appropriately, servo motors are incorporated with a feedback device and a servo drive.

The MPL-B580J-MJ72AA can be used with a wide variety of Allen-Bradley servo drives such as Kinetix 5500, Kinetix 5700, Kinetix 6200/6500,Kinetix 6000, Kinetix 300/350, Kinetix 2000, and Kinetix 7000. For feedback device, the MPL-B580J-MJ72AA is equipped with a high resolution multi-turn encoder. With this type of encoder, degree of rotation as well as the number of rotation can be measured to accurately monitor and control position.

To drive external loads, the MPL-B580J-MJ72AA has an output power of 7.9 kW, Continuous Stall Torque of 34.0 Nm (301 lb-in.); Peak Stall Torque of 87.0 Nm (770 lb-in.); Continuous Stall Current of 32.0 A and Peak Stall Current of 115.0 A. It has a rated speed of 3750 revolutions per minute (RPM) and uses Circular (SpeedTec), right angle, 180° rotatable connectors DIN connectors.

When mounted horizontally, the motor’s protection rating meets IP 51. When mounted in downward orientation, IP rating is IP53 while IP50 is met shaft is installed facing upward position. If installed with the MPL-SSN-F165-32MM shaft seal kit, this servo motor meets IP66 protection rating, regardless of the installation orientation.

The main function of the shaft seal is to prevent process materials from penetrating the servo motor. Additionally, it prevents entry of industrial contaminants that are naturally existing in the environment.

The servo motor also has a high peak stall torque (81 N-m) and a significant continuous stall torque (34 N-m). The MPL-B580J-MJ72AA servo motor is a brushless servo motor that is environmentally rugged, and its ingress protection rating is IP 50. This device operates on 460 Volts AC voltage, and it can work error-free for several years if it is operated at temperatures between 0 and 40 degrees Celsius. The Allen-Bradley MPL-B580J-MJ72AA servo motor must be paired with suitable Allen-Bradley Kinetix series AC servo drives to form a plug-and-play system for high-performance motor speed and position control. A very important part of this system is a multi-turn high-resolution encoder that is factory installed inside of the MPL-B580J-MJ72AA servo motor. This crucial part of the motor is responsible for sending high-resolution position information to the servo controller through a specially designed rotatable connector. The rotor of the device is made of special materials to increase the flux density, deliver more power, and to lower power losses and harmonics. To prevent electrical noise generation, separate the signal cables from the motor power cabling during the device installation. It is also advised not to route signal or power cables over the air exhaust openings of other electrical devices.
