Currently, a great number of machines are running with large, obsolete DC and AC Servomotors and Amplifiers. Many use 1980’s to 2000’s-generation products that are rapidly becoming outdated. These machines are found in every industry, but the majority are used in CNC Machine Tools, Plastics and Material Handling applications. These large- power servosystems have brand names such as Peerless, Gettys, Inland, Fanuc, Yaskawa, Kolmorgen and Indramat, to name a few.

Repair or Replacement of obsolete motors or amplifiers, to prolong the life of an otherwise perfectly good machine, is a big problem. The unavailability of replacement motors and amplifiers result in huge repair costs. What is worse, the reliability of the product is very poor.

The USD/M54XX Brushless Servo system provides a cost-effective solution to avoid expensive retrofit of the whole Machine Control. Simply replace the Drive, Motor and two cables – done!
