Control Techniques – AC Drives – Unidrive M |

Unidrive M is a family of six variable speed drives designed specifically for industrial applications. Each Unidrive M model has been designed for specific application needs identified through extensive market research. Unidrive M is evolving the future of industry with the latest drive technology which includes 21 patents granted and 42 patents pending.
Unidrive M delivers six drive models, all with superior motor performance and an individual feature-set designed to match specific application needs.
World leading drive performance
- Increased throughput – exceptional motor control using induction, permanent magnet, servo and linear motors in open or closed loop configuration for total flexibility
- Increased productivity through improved machine control – onboard real-time Ethernet supporting Precision Time Protocol (IEEE 1588 V2)
Open Automation Systems
Openness is at the heart of Unidrive M. Unidrive M supports a wide range of industry standard technologies and protocols.
- Open programming languages using IEC 61131-3
- Open fieldbuses and networks including EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, PROFINET and PROFIBUS
- Ethernet protocols, including PTP protocol for clock synchronization to IEEE 1588 V2
- Optimized system performance with access to the latest industry technologies, programming languages and communication protocols
- Future proofing is assured with the adherence to open standards which ensures continuous compatibility with the latest technologies (such as evolving protocols) and avoids the lock-in risk associated with proprietary products
- System development speed is maximized due to use of familiar industrial programming languages and compatibility with standard components
- Large choice of compatible ‘best-in-class’ components provided by the flexibility of open automation
- Innovation and talent recruitment optimized through broad industry knowledge of open technologies
Ease of use
- Fast installation and start-up – intuitive keypads, software tools and easy cable management minimizing installation time
Functional safety
- Single and dual Safe Torque Off (STO) inputs
- Advanced safety functions as defined by IEC-61800-5-2 (including Safe Stop 1 and 2, Safe Limited Speed, Safe Limited Position) when an optional SI-Safety module is fitted
