Nice job on the post, there's enough info here to do a drive install and setup right out of the box. Good Stuff!

Thanks guys, I have her dialed in pretty well. Thanks for the good info!!

Looking for an MPA Drive Setup Procedure. A step by step procedure would be nice if I were to replace a burnt out servo amp with another of the same model.

There's tons of info for the MPA drives here: http://www.obsoleteindustrial.com/roundtable/electrical-and-electronic/mts-systems-mpa-460-servo-drive/

Just need a simple drive setup procedure if possible....

Thanks again

Thanks, that's what I'm looking for!

Do you have setup procedures also. In other words, how to setup the drive from scratch.

What kind of info are you looking for exactly? Drive Troubleshooting? Drive Setup and Tuning?

Pretty much all of the above. I recently purchased a used piece of equipment and the MTS drive appears to be a weak link. They supplied me with an extra drive and I have already had this one fault out on overcurrent. I had to let it cool off before it would work again.

I'd like to check the setup and see what I can do to troubleshoot the issue.

Re: How to Configure Drive Feedback

I have used armature voltage feedback on more than one system over the last ten years and had good results. I know that this option eliminates the independent feedback of an external device but it worked for me and it has been reliable feedback so far. Just thought I would put that out there sice it is one of the drive feedback options that does work in some instances.

Looking for information on an MTS Systems MPA-460 Servo Drive It is a brushless servo amplifier used on a line shearing machine. I don't have the manual anymore and I'm hoping someone has info and experience on these MTS amplifiers.

It was made in a few sizes:

• MPA-05-460 - 5 amp size
• MPA-10-460 - 10 amp size
• MPA-15-460 - 15 amp size
• MPA-25-460 - 25 amp size
• MPA-35-460 - 35 amp size
• MPA-50-460 - 50 amp size
• MPA-75-460 - 75 amp size
• MPA-100-460 - 100 amp size

Thank You!
