Delta’s New Compact, MH300 Motor Drive Provides Advanced Tension Control

Delta, a world-class provider of industrial automation solutions, today announced is launching its new advanced compact AC motor drive MH300 series in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia (EMEA). With a power range of 0.4 to 75 kW and numerous tension control features, it’s suitable for a wide range of constant torque applications, such as machine tools, extruding machines, bending machines, conveyer systems, and eventually also for cranes and hoists. The MH300 also comes with a built-in EMC filter to limit electromagnetic emissions. Improved control algorithms allow the new model to drive both SPM and IPM motors. Zero speed holding torque with IPM motor in open loop control is possible out-of-the-box — there is no need to install an extra encoder.
