About MUMA5AZP1S Panasonic MUMA 50W Motor
The Panasonic MINAS A6 MGMF442L1H6M is a high-power 4.4 kW middle inertia motor equipped with a mechanical holding brake. This model is the "safety powerhouse" of the 176 mm frame size, capable of holding massive vertical loads.
Physical Dimensions (Imperial Units)
The addition of the heavy-duty brake significantly increases the length and weight of the unit:
- Weight: Approximately 56.0 lbs (25.4 kg).
- The brake adds roughly 9.7 lbs compared to the non-brake version.
- Width & Height (Flange): 6.93 inches (176 mm square).
- Total Length:
- Body Length (with Brake): ~9.65 inches (245 mm).
- Total Length (Body + Shaft): ~12.76 inches (324 mm).
- Shaft Diameter: 1.38 inches (35 mm).
Core Technical Specs
- Rated Output: 4400 W (4.4 kW).
- Rated Torque: 28.0 Nm.
- Peak Torque: 84.0 Nm.
- Rated Speed: 1500 r/min (Max: 3000 r/min).
- Holding Brake: Included (24V DC).
- Brake Static Friction Torque: 44.0 Nm or higher (specifically designed to exceed the motor's 28 Nm rating).
- Protection: IP67 (dust-tight and water-immersion resistant).

Key Function
The primary function of the "H" model is Emergency Gravity Management. With a holding torque of 44.0 Nm, the brake can safely lock a heavy axis even if the machine is carrying a substantial workload when the power fails.
The Panasonic MUMA5AZP1S functions as an Ultra-Fast Precision Actuator. Because it is a Low Inertia 50W motor, its primary job is "agility"it is designed for machines that need to start, stop, and change direction hundreds of times per minute.
1. High-Speed "Pick-and-Place" Motion
The core function of the MUMA series is rapid acceleration.
- Low Internal Inertia: The rotor inside is extremely light. This allows the motor to reach its 6000 RPM maximum speed almost instantly.
- 0.16 Nm Torque: While the power is low, it is perfectly tuned for moving tiny parts (like microchips, medical vials, or labels) where high force isn't needed, but extreme speed is.
2. Surgical Precision (23-bit Feedback)
Despite being one of the smallest motors Panasonic makes, it functions with the same accuracy as the 22kW giants:
- 8.38 Million Points per Turn: It can position a part within a fraction of a micron.
- Absolute Positioning: It functions as its own memory. It knows its exact position the moment it is turned on, so you don't need to "home" small, delicate assembly arms.
3. Compact Integration (Space-Saving)
- 38mm Frame Size: It functions as a "micro-motor" for tight spaces. It is designed to fit inside small robotic grippers, medical lab instruments, or compact electronic assembly machines.
- Lead-Wire Design: Instead of bulky metal connectors, it uses flexible wires, allowing it to be tucked into very small enclosures.
4. Continuous Reliability
- IP65 Protection: It is designed to function in clean-room or standard factory environments. It is protected against dust and light moisture, ensuring that 24/7 high-speed production lines don't fail due to contamination.
Typical Applications:
- Semiconductor Assembly: Placing tiny components on circuit boards.
- Medical Lab Automation: Moving test tubes or scanning slides at high speeds.
- High-Speed Labeling: Applying stickers to bottles or packages as they fly past on a conveyor.
- Fine Robotics: Powering the "fingers" or "wrists" of small robotic arms.
