DELTA ECMA-C10401HS ECMA Series Servo Motor

Product Overview

The ECMA-C10401HS (ECMA-C10401HS) is a compact, high-precision AC servo motor from Delta’s ECMA series, engineered for motion control applications where space is limited and response time is critical. With a rated output of 100 W and a rated speed of 3,000 r/min, this 40 mm frame motor is optimized for miniature robotics, automated inspection equipment, and precision micro-positioning systems. Its efficient electrical commutation design ensures high reliability and steady torque delivery, making it a dependable choice for high-speed, light-load industrial tasks.

Technical Configuration

This motor is designed for 220 V power systems and features a 20-bit incremental encoder, offering a resolution of over 1,000,000 pulses per revolution. This high-resolution feedback allows the servo system to perform exceptionally accurate speed regulation and fine positioning adjustments, which is vital for complex motion profiles in compact machine designs. The "HS" suffix denotes a standard shaft diameter configuration without additional mechanical modifications, ensuring seamless integration into standard industrial coupling assemblies.

Technical Specifications

FAQs

What is the advantage of the 40 mm frame size?

The ultra-compact 40 mm frame allows for installation in extremely tight spaces where larger motors would be impractical. This makes the ECMA-C10401HS ideal for mobile equipment, handheld precision tools, or densely packed multi-axis stages.

How does the 20-bit encoder affect performance?

The 20-bit incremental encoder provides very high-resolution positional data (1,048,576 pulses/rev). This enables the servo drive to interpret even the smallest motor movements, resulting in superior smoothness at low speeds and high accuracy during rapid, high-speed travel.

Is this motor suitable for clean-room environments?

The ECMA series is designed with industrial-grade seals. However, for specific clean-room certifications, please verify your application’s requirements against the motor’s environmental protection rating, as standard models may require additional measures to prevent particle shedding.

Mechanical Installation & Operational Guidelines

• Thermal Management: Despite its small size, this motor can generate significant heat during sustained operation. Ensure the motor is mounted to a metallic surface that can act as a heat sink, and avoid enclosing it in stagnant air pockets.

• Precision Alignment: Given the small 40 mm frame and high speed (3,000 r/min), even minor misalignment in couplings can introduce harmonic vibrations. Use flexible, high-precision couplings to protect the shaft and internal bearings from radial stress.

• Cabling: Use only Delta-certified shielded motor cables. Due to the motor's high-speed switching requirements, keeping cable runs as short as possible and ensuring a robust, low-impedance connection to the servo drive’s ground terminal is essential to prevent EMI from affecting the high-resolution encoder signals.
