Description
Configured for multi-axis motion control execution in PacDrive SERCOS networks, the Schneider Electric MC-4/11/22/400 (MC-4 servo drive) provides direct electrical control of servo motor position, velocity, and torque via real-time optical communication. It operates from a 3-phase mains input and regulates DC bus energy conversion to PWM-controlled motor output stages.

Deterministic Motion Network Integration (SERCOS)
The MC-4/11/22/400 integrates into deterministic motion control architectures via SERCOS optical fiber communication, ensuring synchronized axis coordination with defined cycle timing. The drive exchanges cyclic position, velocity, and torque data with the PacDrive controller, maintaining phase-aligned execution across multiple axes. Optical transmission reduces electromagnetic interference susceptibility and maintains signal integrity over industrial distances. Internal firmware manages real-time interpolation and closed-loop response, supporting consistent motion profiles under dynamic load conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Does the drive support hot-swapping during operation?
A: No. The unit operates on high-voltage DC bus levels and requires full power isolation before installation or removal to prevent damage and ensure operator safety.
Q: What are the encoder interface compatibility constraints?
A: The drive supports Hiperface and Sin/Cos encoder signals via a dedicated feedback connector. Signal type must match firmware configuration and wiring specifications.
Q: How is synchronization achieved between multiple drives?
A: Synchronization is handled through the SERCOS optical network, where cyclic communication ensures deterministic timing and coordinated motion across all connected axes.
Field Installation Guidelines
- Install the unit inside a grounded control cabinet compliant with IP20 protection requirements.
- Maintain proper spacing for airflow to support forced air cooling and prevent thermal accumulation.
- Ensure correct phase alignment for the 3-phase input supply before energizing the system.
- Route encoder and SERCOS fiber cables separately from power lines to minimize electrical interference.
- Verify proper grounding of shielding layers for motor and feedback cables to maintain signal integrity.
- Confirm STO or safety input wiring (if applicable) aligns with system safety circuit design before commissioning.
