Product Information
Extended Description
3ABD00049402-D ABB: The ACS880 drives which are configured with the positon control program (+N5700) is an ideal choice for high-power position control axes. Its motion functions are based on PLCopen motion control blocks and can be easily configured by parameters. Programming flexibility and connectivity to all motors and PLCs ensure optimized solutions for production machinery and material handling applications.
High-power position control is the core capability of the ACS880 module. The ACS880-04-725A-3+N5700 variant delivers 400 kW and 725 A, enabling precise, repeatable axis motion under demanding loads. The control loop benefits from PLCopen motion control blocks, ensuring deterministic behavior, repeatability, and smooth ramping. In practice, this translates to reduced overshoot, tighter positioning tolerance, and fewer tuning iterations during production ramps. Applications such as packaging lines, stamping, and automated material handling demand this level of stability to sustain high throughput. Parameter-based configuration with PLCopen motion blocks accelerates engineering and commissioning. Rather than bespoke code, engineers tune axes and motion profiles through straightforward parameters, reducing changeover time and the risk of drift across product runs. This approach improves maintainability, allowing technicians to adjust speed, torque limits, and stop behaviors with familiar tools. The outcome is faster ramp trials, more repeatable motion, and a shorter path from concept to production on new or upgraded lines. Connectivity and compatibility are designed in from the start. The drive module supports direct connectivity to a wide range of motors and PLCs, enabling plug‑and‑play wiring and minimizing interconnect errors. Its multi‑protocol readiness reduces integration risk in multi‑vendor environments, and straightforward cabinet installation lowers installation time. In practice, this means fewer field problems, simpler spare parts planning, and faster scale‑up when expanding lines or adding extra axes. Compliance and protection options address harsh environments. The ACS880 family is designed with CE compliance as a baseline, with optional IP‑rated configurations to suit dusty or washdown areas. This combination supports safer operation, reduced fault rates, and easier auditability, while enabling long-term operation of critical processes such as casting, extrusion, and metal forming. Scalability and ROI are additional advantages. The single‑drive module can be extended to multi‑axis systems as production lines grow, reducing hardware sprawl and harmonizing control across cells. Users report lower maintenance costs, fewer spare parts types, and measurable gains in uptime and throughput. When selecting automated motion controls, this architecture offers a predictable upgrade path and a clear link to overall equipment effectiveness.

FAQs
Plan a compliant LV AC supply and select a suitable enclosure based on your environment (CE baseline with optional IP-rated options). Use parameter-based configuration and PLCopen motion blocks to define axis limits, ramp profiles, and stop behaviors. Verify motor compatibility and PLC integration, then perform staged commissioning with built-in diagnostics to validate positioning accuracy before production.
The +N5700 program provides enhanced axis motion within the ACS880 family, delivering deterministic response and improved accuracy for high-power axes. With PLCopen blocks, you can define motion profiles, synchronize multi-axis moves, and incorporate feedforward torque. The result is smoother ramps, tighter repeatability, and reduced overshoot during heavy-load operations.
Yes. The 400 kW, 725 A ACS880 module is designed for high-throughput production machinery, packaging lines, stamping, and material handling where precise axis control is essential. Its motor-PLC connectivity and parameter-based configuration simplify integration with existing automation, while the PLCopen blocks support scalable, repeatable motion across single- or multi-axis setups.
Basic CE compliance is standard for ABB ACS880 drives, with optional IP-rated enclosures for harsher environments. These protections support safety, environmental resilience, and easier audits. Always confirm local wiring codes and compliance requirements for your jurisdiction and enclosure choice to ensure full regulatory alignment.
Expect reduced downtime and faster changeovers due to easier parameter-based tuning and plug‑and‑play connectivity. The robust ACS880 platform supports longer mean time between failures, while scalable axis configurations help protect capital investments as lines expand. These factors collectively contribute to a favorable return on investment over the system’s lifecycle.
