EXPERT SERVO DRIVE OVERCURRENT/OVERVOLTAGE FAULT REPAIR SERVICES

Is your servo drive tripping on overcurrent or overvoltage faults? These faults indicate a serious problem that can damage your equipment and halt production. ROC Industrial specializes in diagnosing and repairing the root causes of overcurrent and overvoltage faults in servo drives. We offer fast, reliable, and cost-effective solutions to get your equipment back in operation.


Understanding Overcurrent and Overvoltage Faults


  • Overcurrent Faults: Occur when the servo motor draws more current than the drive is rated to supply. This can be caused by a variety of factors, both internal and external to the drive.

  • Overvoltage Faults: Occur when the voltage supplied to the drive, or the voltage generated within the drive (especially during regenerative braking), exceeds safe limits.


Common Causes of Overcurrent Faults


  • Motor Problems: Shorted motor windings, a seized motor, or a motor that is too large for the drive.

  • Mechanical Binding: Excessive load or binding in the machine being driven by the motor.

  • Incorrect Parameter Settings: Incorrect current limits, acceleration/deceleration rates, or other drive parameters.

  • Wiring Problems: Short circuits in the motor cables or wiring.

  • Drive Component Failure: Faulty IGBTs, current sensors, or other internal components within the drive.

  • Ground Faults


Common Causes of Overvoltage Faults


  • Regenerative Braking Issues: When a motor decelerates, it can act as a generator, sending voltage back to the drive. If this voltage is too high, it can trigger an overvoltage fault. This is especially common in applications with high inertia loads.

  • Incorrect Parameter Settings: Incorrect DC bus voltage settings or braking resistor configuration.

  • Power Supply Issues: High input voltage from the mains.

  • Drive Component Failure: Faulty components in the drive's DC bus or braking circuit.
