The Ultimate Solution.
Pure Power up to 2.8 MW.
Combines high-performance motor control with an onboard PLC and 250 µs motion capability in a single drive. An unrivalled platform for heavy industry, high-dynamic axes and DC-to-AC retrofit projects.
Engineering and
Sizing Tools
Calculate the energy savings, payback period and mechanical sizing the M700 will deliver in your project online, in seconds, with ONX algorithms.
Motion Sizing Engine
Size Unidrive M700 and Unimotor hd servo motors to your application's mechanical values (lead, inertia, cycle time) with millisecond-resolution torque/speed charts.
DC-to-AC (M700) Retrofit ROI
Calculate the return on investment (ROI) from energy, maintenance and downtime savings when you replace your legacy DC drive (e.g. Mentor MP) with a Unidrive M700 and a Leroy-Somer CPLS motor.
Heavy-Duty VFD ROI
Analysis of the kWh savings and carbon footprint reduction achieved on large fans and pumps by using an M700 AC drive instead of valve/damper throttling.
Regenerative AFE ROI
The gain from feeding energy back to the grid with an M700 AFE system instead of wasting it as heat in braking resistors on cranes, elevators or winders.
Injection Molding & Press Servo Pump ROI
Financial payback analysis of an intelligent servo pump system that eliminates idle-time losses on hydraulic machines by pairing an M700 drive with a Unimotor.
A Modular Architecture That Grows with Your System
We position the M700 not just as a drive, but as an intelligence hub that adapts to its environment with Machine Control, fieldbus, safety and universal encoder options.
Drive-Based PLC: MCi Series
Eliminate the need for an external PLC with the MCi200 and MCi210 (dual-port Ethernet) modules. Remove system latency with IEC 61131-3 (Machine Control Studio) programming and a 250 µs motion loop.
Universal Feedback
Reads 14 different encoder protocols onboard, including EnDat, Hiperface, SSI, SinCos, TTL and HTL. Ideal for driving existing motors in retrofit projects without replacing them.
EtherCAT & PROFINET
Offers IEEE 1588 synchronization via the onboard RT Ethernet port. SI-EtherCAT and SI-Ethernet modules provide seamless communication between OT and IT networks.
KI-Keypad & Commissioning
Parameter setting, backup (SmartCard) and fault diagnosis in the field without a PC, using the KI-Keypad Plus (color/Bluetooth) or RTC (time-stamped diagnostics) keypads.
