Description

The Ultimate Universal Drive: Unidrive M700 VFD

Our Unidrive M700 VFD offers the highest control stability and bandwidth for every industrial motor type. This advanced motor drive enables maximum machine throughput in every application and with every motor, from AC induction motors to dynamic linear motors, and from energy-saving hybrid permanent-magnet motors to high-performance servo motors.

The Drive for Your Industry and Application

1. For Torque Control Applications

  • Precision torque control with up to 250 μs update rate.
  • Sensorless control of induction, permanent-magnet, and hybrid PM motors.
  • 98% efficient, with minimal energy lost during the power conversion process.
  • Easy common DC bus configuration, dynamic braking, and regenerative mode.
  • Full spectrum of stand-alone, modular, and pre-assembled drives up to 2.8MW (4,200hp).
  • On-board PLC to execute programs for logic and sequencing.

2. For Speed Control Applications

  • Fully configurable S-ramps.
  • High bandwidth speed loop and switching frequencies supported up to 16 kHz.
  • Built-in, universal feedback interface supporting everything from resolvers to incremental and absolute encoders.
  • Stationary autotune.
  • Low acoustic noise due to adjustable multi-speed fan and intelligent thermal management.
  • Integrated Safe Torque Off (STO) inputs, certified to SIL3 / PLe.

3. For Position Control Applications

  • Support for virtually all control bus technologies, including traditional fieldbuses and serial communications.
  • Effortless integration into PLC architectures with PLC Controlled Motion.
  • Built-in, 1.5 axis advanced motion controller with cam profiles, homing, and electronic gearbox.
  • Scalable integrated motion control reduces demand on, or can entirely replace, a central PLC.
  • Comprehensive motion safety functions.

High Power Modular Drives (Up to 2.8 MW)

Unidrive M’s modular offering gives you never-before-seen flexibility in building compact, reliable high-power solutions. Paralleled together, the Unidrive M700 VFD can control asynchronous and synchronous motors up to 2.8 MW (4,200 hp). The Frame 12 is a 500 kW (700 hp) single module that delivers unmatched power density.

Multi-Protocol Network Communications

Having multiple protocols supported by one inverter means different systems can share one design, reducing engineering effort. Today, Unidrive M series drives offer EtherNet/IP, Modbus/TCP, RTMoE, and PROFINET RT as standard, on a single drive platform, simultaneously.

  • RTMoE: Real-Time Motion over Ethernet provides synchronized communication between drives at 250 μs cycle time.
  • Traffic Management: Every Ethernet-based Unidrive incorporates dedicated network switches that allow the drives to be conveniently daisy-chained together.

Advanced Features & Functional Safety

  • Feedback: Supports SinCos, EnDat, SSI, HIPERFACE, and BiSS.
  • Sensorless: Control of induction, permanent-magnet, and hybrid PM motors.
  • On-board PLC & Motion Controller: Executes IEC 61131-3 motion and sequencing with real-time tasks. The 1.5 axes Advanced Motion Controller operates at a 250 μs cycle time.
  • Functional Safety: Integrated dual Safe Torque Off (STO) inputs, certified to SIL3 / PLe.
