Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000031817 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.
The drive includes integrated functional safety features that support PROFIsafe over PROFINET, enabling safe motor control within the machine safety system. This reduces reliance on external safety controllers and minimizes wiring and configuration complexity, which translates to faster installation and lower commissioning costs. The compact LV AC module rated at 0.37 kW with a 230 V supply simplifies enclosure layout and wiring, enabling smaller control cabinets and lower installation overheads. Adaptive programming capabilities allow engineers to tailor motion profiles for conveyors, mixers, EOT cranes, and textile machinery, boosting throughput and reducing energy waste through optimized acceleration and deceleration. UL-listed electronics and standard IEC compatibility support regulatory compliance, helping to meet quality and safety standards with fewer traceable deviations. Integration with ABB automation ecosystems and PROFINET networking accelerates project timelines and provides a scalable path for future upgrades across multiple machines. By adopting the ACS380 family within a unified control strategy, customers can achieve consistent performance across lines, improving maintenance planning and return-on-investment (ROI).
