Alternatives that meet or exceed these figures
Engineers often come to us with a Sanyo Denki part number and leave with an alternative that is easier to source, quicker to deliver or a better fit for the machine. These 3 series from our supply network are the closest match on published figures.
Kinco's high-performance AC servo drive covering 200 W to 7.5 kW on 220 or 400 V class supplies, with full closed loop, multi-axis synchronisation, vibration suppression and SIL3 STO on selected models.
View series →A higher-power Kinco AC drive for SMH, SMC and SMG motors on 220 or 380 VAC, with Modbus, CANopen and EtherCAT, absolute encoders to 24-bit, an independent 24 VDC control supply and direct brake output.
View FD2S Series AC Servo Drives →Kinco's analogue and step/direction AC servo drive for legacy integrations, 50 W-2 kW for SMH and SMC motors with incremental encoders, configured over RS232.
View series →Figures are the highest published for each series and are not always measured the same way. A higher figure is not automatically a better choice: mounting, duty cycle, feedback, connectors and approvals matter too. An engineer will check the fit against your application before recommending anything.
