About MLDET2310P Panasonic MUMA 400W Driver
The Panasonic MLDET2310P is an ultra-compact
L-Frame AC servo driver from the
MINAS E-series, specifically engineered to control the
MUMA 400W motor. Like other models in this series, it is now
discontinued but remains a staple in industrial automation for high-speed position control. [

- Height: 5.51" (140 mm)
- Width: 1.57" (40 mm)
- Depth: 4.13" (105 mm) [1, 2]
Weight
- Net Weight: 0.88 lbs (0.40 kg) [1, 2]
Core Functions
- Ultra-Compact Position Control: Specifically optimized for space-saving installations while providing precise motion control for 400W motor systems.
- Multiple Control Modes: Offers three selectable modes via parameters: High-speed position control, Internal velocity control, and High-functionality position control.
- Resonance Suppression: Features a frequency response of 400 Hz and built-in filters to eliminate mechanical vibration during rapid movement.
- Feedback Integration: Designed to work with a 2500 P/r incremental encoder (10,000 resolution), providing high-accuracy motion feedback.
- External Regeneration Support: It does not have a built-in regenerative resistor; for high-inertia loads or vertical operations, an external resistor is required. [1, 2, 4, 5, 6]
The Panasonic MLDET2310P functions as the high-speed Servo Driver (controller) specifically for 400W MINAS E-series motors. Its main job is to take low-power commands from a PLC and convert them into high-power electrical pulses to move the motor shaft.
Key Functions
- High-Speed Positioning: It is optimized for "exclusive positioning control." It can handle command pulses up to 500 kpps (kilo-pulses per second), allowing for extremely fast and accurate movements.
- Advanced Vibration Suppression:
- Notch Filters: It detects the frequency at which your machine shakes (resonance) and creates a "notch" in the power output to skip that frequency, stopping the vibration.
- Adaptive Filters: These filters automatically adjust in real-time if the machine's vibration changes as it moves.
- Real-Time Auto-Gain Tuning: It automatically calculates the weight (inertia) of the load you are moving and adjusts its power output to ensure the motor doesn't "overshoot" its target.
- Multiple Control Modes:
- Position Mode: Most common; used for moving to exact coordinates.
- Internal Velocity Mode: Used for controlling the speed of the motor directly.
- Fault Monitoring: It tracks various safety parameters and will trigger an Alarm (displayed on the front panel) if it detects over-voltage, over-current, or encoder communication errors.
Component Role
In a standard setup, this driver connects:
- Main Power: 200V AC input.
- Control Signal: Receives "Pulse" and "Direction" signals from a controller.
- Motor Power: Sends 3-phase power to the MUMA motor.
- Feedback: Reads the incremental encoder pulses (2500 P/r) from the motor to confirm it reached the correct spot.
