Panasonic MDDLT55SF Servo Driver 1.5kW 40A 200V AC MINAS A6 SF Series with Full

The Panasonic MDDLT55SF is a high-performance multifunction AC servo driver from the MINAS A6 SF series, designed for demanding industrial automation applications requiring advanced motion control capabilities. This 1.5kW driver delivers exceptional precision, ultra-fast response, and versatile control options, making it an ideal choice for CNC machinery, robotics, packaging equipment, semiconductor manufacturing, and high-precision positioning systems.

As part of Panasonic's MINAS A6 family, the MDDLT55SF features a 3.2 kHz frequency response for superior dynamic performance, supports 23-bit absolute encoder feedback (8,388,608 pulses/revolution), and offers seven switchable control modes including full-closed control with external scale feedback. The driver includes integrated STO (Safe Torque Off) safety functionality and supports Modbus RTU communication via RS-485 for multi-axis systems.

Product Status: Active (In Production) - Available for new designs and ongoing production.
