About

About ASDA-B3 Servo Drive

Delta’s ASDA-B3 Series closes position, speed and torque loops around compatible AC servomotors for industrial machinery and automation. It provides up to 3.1 kHz response bandwidth and 24-bit absolute or incremental encoder options, giving 16,777,216 counts per revolution. Auto-tuning, vibration suppression and system-analysis functions support commissioning around machine mechanics.

The family spans 220 V models from 100 W to 3 kW and 400 V models from 1 to 8 kW. Control and network variants include pulse train, RS-485, CANopen, DMCNET and EtherCAT, with Safe Torque Off available on selected configurations. Machine builders match the drive with motor inertia, power, brake, encoder and communications requirements.

Timeline

  • Delta launches the ASDA-B3 servo system at Engimach 2019

    2019-12-04 - Product Launch - ASDA-B3 was presented during Engimach in Gandhinagar, India, held from 4 to 8 December 2019. The launch introduced support for all-inertia motors and motion-control functions for machine-tool and manufacturing equipment. Delta later documented 3.1 kHz response bandwidth, 24-bit encoder support and multiple industrial communications variants across the family.
