FAQs
Q1: What is the primary function of the MC-4/11/03/400?
It is a single-axis digital servo drive that controls the position, speed, and torque of servo motors in industrial automation systems. It is part of the PacDrive ecosystem, communicating with a central controller via SERCOS fiber-optic interface for precise multi-axis synchronization.
Q2: What communication interface does this drive use?
The MC-4/11/03/400 uses a SERCOS fiber-optic interface for communication with PacDrive central controllers. This provides high noise immunity and fast data transmission, enabling precise synchronization of multiple axes in complex machinery.
Q3: Is this drive still in production?
No. The MC-4/11/03/400 has been discontinued by Schneider Electric. It is now available only through aftermarket suppliers, surplus stock, or refurbished units. For new projects, checking Schneider Electric’s current Lexium motion control lineup is recommended.
Q4: What are the typical applications for this drive?
It is commonly used in packaging machinery, printing equipment, robotic assembly lines, and material handling systems where high-speed, coordinated motion is essential. Its fiber-optic communication makes it suitable for electrically noisy environments.
Q5: What central controllers work with this drive?
The MC-4/11/03/400 integrates with PacDrive central controllers such as the C400, C600, MAx-4, and PacPC series, which execute application logic and coordinate all connected MC-4 drives via the SERCOS network.
