Product Overview

The E94ASHE0024 (E94ASHE0024) is a high-performance single-axis servo drive from the Lenze 9400 HighLine series, engineered for sophisticated motion control in demanding B2B industrial environments. Delivering a rated power of 0.37 kW, this drive is a cornerstone for applications requiring high dynamic response and precision, such as multi-axis pick-and-place robots, synchronized packaging machinery, and high-speed labeling systems. The E94ASHE0024 is designed for a wide three-phase input range of 180 to 550 V, providing global compatibility across various industrial power grids. As part of the L-force platform, it integrates advanced safety functions and flexible communication options, enabling it to act as an intelligent node in complex automation architectures. Its German-engineered reliability ensures operational excellence and energy efficiency, making it a premium choice for manufacturers looking to reduce cycle times and maximize system uptime.

Technical Configuration

The E94ASHE0024 architecture is designed for "Single Drive" installations, providing a compact yet powerful footprint (5.50 cm width) that optimizes control cabinet space. The HighLine firmware supports integrated motion control functions including positioning, electronic gearing, and cam profiling, which are executed locally within the drive to offload the central PLC. The unit features an innovative plug-in memory module (MM200) for rapid commissioning and device replacement without a PC. For networking, it supports modular expansion for Ethernet, POWERLINK, PROFINET, and PROFIBUS, ensuring seamless integration into modern Industrial IoT environments. The 4.00 kg chassis includes a robust power stage capable of handling significant overloads, supported by high-resolution feedback interfaces for resolvers and SinCos encoders to maintain sub-millimeter positioning accuracy.

Technical Specifications

Technical FAQs

How does the E94ASHE0024 handle safety-critical applications?

The 9400-series HighLine includes integrated safety technology. As standard, it features Safe Torque Off (STO) to SIL 3 / PL e requirements. Additional safety modules can be added to provide more complex functions like Safe Stop 1 (SS1), Safely-Limited Speed (SLS), and Safe Tip (SDI).

Can the E94ASHE0024 operate on both 230V and 480V 3-phase networks?

Yes. The drive features a wide-range input of 180 V to 550 V. This allows the same 0.37 kW unit to be utilized in various global regions without the need for additional voltage transformers, simplifying international machine design.

What is the purpose of the "HighLine" designation for this 0.37 kW drive?

The HighLine variant comes with a more comprehensive internal function block library compared to the BaseLine models. It is specifically designed for applications requiring complex motion tasks, such as electronic cams (CAM) and point-to-point positioning with high-speed synchronization.

Engineering & Installation Guide

For the E94ASHE0024, vertical mounting in the control cabinet is mandatory to ensure the forced-air cooling system can effectively dissipate heat from the power stage. Maintain a minimum clearance of 100 mm above and below the unit for optimal airflow. To ensure high signal integrity for the 0.37 kW servo loop, use high-flex, double-shielded feedback cables and ground the shields using 360-degree clamps at both the drive and motor ends. When integrating into a fieldbus network like PROFINET or EtherCAT, ensure the use of Category 5e or higher industrial Ethernet cables. During commissioning, utilize the "L-force Engineer" software to perform an automatic motor identification; this ensures the drive's mathematical model of the motor is accurate, which is critical for the high-dynamic performance required in precision servo applications.
