It supports industry-standard safety and reliability requirements, including CE conformity and robust IP-rated configurations built to suit harsh environments. This combination accelerates setup, reduces machine downtime, and improves energy efficiency across packaging, automotive, and material-handling lines while enabling seamless integration with existing control architectures. By leveraging PLCopen motion control blocks and parameter-based configuration, engineers can tune performance quickly and deploy consistent motion profiles. Its wall-mounted LV design simplifies panel layouts and reduces footprint, aiding quick installation in machine rooms.
Product Information
Extended Description
3ABD00057685-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.
Position control program (+N5700) with PLCopen motion control blocks enables precise axis positioning with repeatable motion. This reduces tuning time and debugging effort during commissioning. In high-volume manufacturing, such deterministic control translates directly into tighter tolerances and smoother line throughput. Parameter-based configuration allows rapid adaptation to different motors, feedback sensors, and PLCs without extensive reprogramming or commissioning downtime. Interoperability with popular industrial protocols and standard interfaces means you can integrate the ACS880 with existing control architectures with minimal risk. This reduces changeover time, lowers engineering costs, and supports scalable automation investments in packaging lines and assembly cells. With a 37 kW, 72 A power rating, the drive delivers high torque for demanding axes, supporting faster cycle times and robust load handling. Engineers can consolidate drives on a line by selecting a single high-performance unit rather than adding extra accelerators. The result is improved line throughput and more predictable material flow on conveyors, hoists, and gantry systems. The LV wall-mounted enclosure saves cabinet space and simplifies installation, enabling easier retrofits and quicker access for maintenance teams. Compact mounting reduces wiring complexity and heat generation inside control panels, contributing to longer equipment life and lower cooling costs. Compatibility with existing ABB motors and standard PLC hardware minimizes integration risk during factory upgrades. Industry professionals value the combination of flexible programming, precise motion control, and robust connectivity for automotive, packaging, and general automation lines. The standardized approach supports future expansion, reduces total cost of ownership, and aligns with Industry 4.0 strategies and smart factory initiatives. From installation to operation, the ACS880 delivers measurable efficiency gains, faster ROI, and sustained performance across evolving production demands.

FAQs
Begin by mounting the drive in a suitable enclosure and wiring three-phase input power. Connect the motor to the drive outputs and link the PLC via supported industrial protocols (for example, PROFINET or Modbus) depending on configuration. Enable the +N5700 position control option, adjust safety parameters, and verify feedback signals before commissioning to ensure reliable operation.
The unit delivers 37 kW of power with a 72 A rated current, in a wall-mounted LV drive, configured with the +N5700 position control. It uses PLCopen motion control blocks for deterministic axis control, enabling precise positioning, repeatable motion, and smooth performance on demanding production axes.
Yes. Its high power, precise position control, and flexible connectivity make it well-suited for conveyors, hoists, gantries, and packaging automation. The PLCopen-based motion control and easy PLC integration help maintain throughput, improve motion accuracy, and reduce downtime during line changes or maintenance across material handling and packaging applications.
Typical configurations support CE conformity and enclosure options that meet industrial IP requirements, depending on the installed housing and accessories. Certification availability can vary with configuration, so verify the exact enclosure rating and safety-related features on the chosen variant and consult the datasheet or supplier for SIL/other certifications in your region.
ROI comes from faster commissioning, reduced downtime, and improved motion reliability that lowers scrap and waste. Maintenance aligns with standard drive service practices: fault logging, firmware updates, and routine checks. The device’s configurability and modular integration support scalable automation and longer-term uptime across evolving production lines.
