Product Information
Extended Description
3ABD00046201 ABB: The ACS380 machinery drive comes in several variants, ensuring seamless integration into machines and connecting perfectly to automation systems. It=E2=80=99s a great fit for industries such as food and beverage, material handling and textile. Typical applications include mixers, conveyors, EOT and tower cranes, extruders, and textile machinery. With the integrated functional safety features, the ACS380 drive can be also part of the machine=E2=80=99s safety system via PROFIsafe over PROFINET, ensuring the motor is safely stopped when required. In addition, the drive=E2=80=99s software can be easily customized with adaptive programming to match any specific application requirements.
Integrated functional safety features let the drive participate in the machine safety system via PROFIsafe over PROFINET, enabling safe stops when needed. This reduces wiring complexity and safety validation time while improving regulatory compliance across production lines. In practice, this means OEMs can consolidate safety logic in one device, shortening commissioning cycles while maintaining traceability for audits. It is well-suited for packaging lines, textile machinery, and material-handling conveyors where safety-critical control is essential. Adaptive programming lets you tailor control strategies to specific processes, reducing commissioning time and enabling precise torque and speed responses for dynamic loads. The result is lower energy use, reduced motor wear, and improved product quality across applications such as mixers and extruders. Teams can deploy adaptive routines to handle batch variations and machine start-up sequences with minimal reconfiguration. With a 22 kW, 50 A rating, the ACS380 fits mid-size motors commonly found in processing and packaging lines, delivering reliable torque and smooth starts even under peak loads. This rating supports higher line throughput and reduces peak current stress on power supplies, which can lower electrical utility demand and protect upstream breakers. The compact module design also simplifies installation in tight control panels. Installation is streamlined by LV AC compatibility and ABB's drive architecture, simplifying retrofit into existing machines and reducing downtime during changeovers. The drive supports easy PROFINET integration and straightforward parameter migration from legacy drives, making upgrades faster for OEMs and maintenance teams. The comprehensive diagnostic features help operators identify faults quickly and schedule preventive maintenance. Industry experience shows that safety-enabled drives with adaptive programming can accelerate time-to-value in automation projects, especially in industries with variable loads, such as food and beverage lines or textile processing. By consolidating control, safety, and network integration in a single device, plant engineers can reduce wiring, training time, and spare parts variety. This approach also supports scalable upgrades as production needs evolve.
