M900 Series Multi-axis Servo Drive System: How to Cut Total Cost Over Machine Lifecycle?
Most machinery manufacturers tend to only compare upfront hardware unit prices when selecting motion control systems. However, substantial cost-saving opportunities lie across five key stages of the full project lifecycle: Procurement Cost, Application Cost, Commissioning Cost, Operation Cost and Maintenance Cost. Built on a modular platform, the M900 Series multi-axis servo drive reduces your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) across these five dimensions.
Procurement Cost
Standardized modules with simplified model options improve customer-side inventory turnover and cut inventory costs (around 3 times the inventory turnover rate of competitors).
Application Cost
Compact electrical cabinet design saves 50%~70% of cabinet space and related costs. It removes the need for many peripheral components including cables, battery boxes, braking resistors, intermediate relays and more, greatly cutting accessory costs. Meanwhile, it saves over 50% of on-site wiring and installation labor hours, boosts electrical cabinet production efficiency and reduces installation costs. Built-in braking resistor eliminates external braking resistors for general industrial applications.
Commissioning Cost
Powerful upper computer software features (multi-axis interpolation, multi-dimensional curve, quadrant point) enable multi-axis curve generation and fast identification of process issues. It supports one-click copying and downloading of multi-axis parameters for mass equipment deployment.
Operation Cost
It achieves approximately 30% average power savings, helping end users reduce costs and improve efficiency.
Maintenance Cost
Tool-free quick plug-and-swap module replacement on-site enables efficient maintenance. Module parameters restore automatically, and no professional technicians are required for operation.
Conclusion
Cost optimization for motion control is far more than finding cheaper hardware. It focuses on eliminating waste throughout the entire machine lifecycle. The M900 multi-axis servo drive solution helps machinery manufacturers and system integrators save cabinet space, labor, electricity bills and maintenance hours, while streamlining inventory management and accelerating machine commissioning & delivery.
