Technical Specifications The following table outlines the primary electrical and physical characteristics of this electronic part: | Characteristic | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Series** | MINAS A6 Series | | **Motor Type** | AC Brushless Servo Motor | | **Encoder Resolution** | 23-bit (8,388,608 pulses per revolution) | | **Ingress Protection** | IP67 (Dust-tight and water immersion resistant) | | **Input Voltage** | 200V AC Class | | **Brake Option** | Built-in electromagnetic brake (indicated by 'B') | | **Keyway/Shaft** | Round shaft with keyway (Standard) | --- ### 2. Breakdown of the Part Number The alphanumeric code provides specific details regarding the motor's internal build: * **M2REB**: Defines the frame size and the specific motor family (A6 Series). * **RBC**: * **R**: High-inertia or specific torque characteristic. * **B**: Integrated **Electromagnetic Brake** (essential for safety in vertical axes to prevent falling during power loss). * **C**: Connector/Wiring specification (Oil-seal or lead wire type). * **R2**: Revision code or specific torque/speed rating for the rotor. * **SLASHQ (/Q)**: This suffix usually denotes a **Special Specification** or customized version, often requested by large OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) for specific connector types or firmware. --- ### 3. Key Electronic Features #### A. 23-bit Absolute Encoder The core electronic component is the high-resolution optical/magnetic encoder. It allows the motor to "remember" its position even when the power is turned off, eliminating the need for a homing sequence. #### B. Electromagnetic Brake (24V DC) This part includes an internal coil. When 24V DC is applied, the brake releases; when power is cut (emergency stop), the brake engages mechanically to lock the shaft. #### C. IP67 Protection The electronics are encased in a housing that uses specialized seals (oil seals) to prevent coolant, oil, or dust from entering the motor windings and damaging the internal insulation. --- ### 4. Application Areas * **CNC Machining:** Used for precise axis positioning. * **Robotic Arms:** The high inertia and brake make it ideal for joint movement. * **Semiconductor Manufacturing:** High resolution is required for wafer handling.
