With the CC-Link IE Field Safety integration and the additional option card MR-D30 attached, the MR-J4-GF now meets international safety standards for Category 4 PLe SIL3

Mitsubishi Electric is now embedding CC-Link IE Field Safety features into their MR-J4-GF Servo Amplifiers. CC-Link IE Field Safety meets both IEC and ISO safety standards.

The servo amplifiers feature 1-Gbit per second (Gbps) data transfer rates. With the CC-Link IE Field Safety integration and the additional option card MR-D30 attached, the MR-J4-GF now meets international safety standards for Category 4 PLe SIL3. OEMs can now connect the Mitsubishi Electric Simple Motion Module with the servo amplifier to establish safety communications over the network.

The MR-J4-GF Servo Amplifiers also include One-Touch Tuning, advanced vbration suppression control, 4 million pulse encoders and 2.5 kHz speed frequency response. The servo also includes a failure prediction function that detects age-related changes in machine performance based on the friction and vibrations monitored by a machine diagnosis function.
