The MINAS E7 Servo Motor features a compact design that is up to 27% smaller than previous models in its class, specifically the 400W driver. It offers a high-speed response with a frequency of 3.0 kHz, a maximum rotation speed of 6,000 revolutions per minute, and a 20-bit encoder resolution.

Panasonic Industry Division, a business unit of Panasonic Life Solutions India (PLSIND) ​​launched ​a new-generation servo system — the MINAS E7 series. Built upon Panasonic’s A7 core algorithm platform, the MINAS E7 series delivers fast, intelligent, and compact automation performance tailored to the evolving needs of Indian OEMs.

Narayan Kumar, Divisional Director, Panasonic Industry, PLSIND, said, “With the MINAS E7, we’ve built a servo system that significantly reduces installation space, ensures ultra-fast auto-tuning, and improves motion accuracy, all while being more intuitive and accessible.”

MINAS E7 Servo Motor Series Features

The MINAS E7 servo system is engineered for high responsiveness, compactness, and ease of use. Inheriting Panasonic’s upgraded A7 core control algorithm, it enables automatic parameter optimisation in just one minute, allowing for rapid and stable operation across diverse industrial applications. With a high-speed response frequency of 3.0 kHz, a maximum rotation speed of 6000 revolutions per minute, and a 20-bit encoder resolution, the E7 delivers precise and efficient motion control. Its compact design is up to 27% smaller than previous models in the same class (specifically the 400W driver), making it ideal for installations in space-constrained environments. Additionally, the system is supported by Panaterm 7, a powerful software that facilitates multi-axis debugging and real-time monitoring of up to 32 axes, further enhancing operational flexibility and efficiency. With its TUNINGLESS one-minute auto-debugging function, the driver quickly understands device characteristics and adapts control parameters, accordingly, significantly reducing time spent on manual tuning and enhancing equipment stability.

Versatile Applications and Use Cases

The MINAS E7 servo system is well-suited for a wide range of industrial automation applications, making it a versatile solution for modern manufacturing environments. It is ideal for use in packaging machines, material handling systems, printing equipment, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, as well as testing and inspection machinery. Its strong adaptability, coupled with support for multiple communication protocols, ensures seamless integration with production line equipment and enterprise-level systems such as MES, SCADA, and ERP. This flexibility makes the MINAS E7 an optimal choice for manufacturers seeking to enhance efficiency and connectivity across diverse automation architectures.
