Allen-Bradley MPL-A230P-VJ72AA | Low-Inertia Servo Motor

Product Overview

The MPL-A230P-VJ72AA is a premium permanent magnet rotary servo motor from Allen-Bradley’s MPL low-inertia series. With a compact 75 mm frame and a 3-inch magnetic stack, this motor delivers precise motion control in high-speed applications. Its low-inertia brushless design ensures fast acceleration, while the integrated shaft key supports mechanical reliability in demanding operations.

This motor operates on a 200 Volts AC class and reaches up to 5000 RPM rated speed. The inclusion of a multi-turn high-resolution encoder (128 sin/cos) guarantees precise feedback for advanced positioning. Additionally, circular DIN connectors, rotatable at 180 degrees, simplify integration and maintain wiring flexibility.
