MINAS A7 Motors (MHMG / MDMG)
Current-generation flagship motor. 50 W–1.5 kW, 100/200 V, 27-bit battery-less absolute encoder, 4.0 kHz. IP67, triple-lip oil seal.
MHMG (high inertia) · MDMG (middle inertia) Find A7 Motors →MINAS A6 Motors (5 Inertia Classes)
50 W–22 kW, 100/200/400 V, 23-bit abs/inc encoder. Five inertia classes: MSMF (low), MQMF (mid flat), MDMF (mid), MGMF (high torque), MHMF (high).
MSMF · MQMF · MDMF · MGMF · MHMF Find A6 Motors →A7B / A6B Drivers (EtherCAT)
EtherCAT servo drivers for A7 and A6 motors. Standard (BE) and multifunction (BF). Integrates with FP7 PLC and GM1 motion controller.
MADN□□□BE · MADN□□□BF (A7) · MADL□□□BE (A6) Find EtherCAT Drivers →A7N / A6N Drivers (RTEX)
RTEX 100 Mbit/s network servo drivers. Real-time synchronized multi-axis motion. Pairs with FP-XH, FP7, and GM1 controllers.
MADN□□□NE / NF (A7) · MADLN□□□NE (A6) Find RTEX Drivers →A6S Drivers (Pulse / Analog / RS-485)
"Powered Up" compact driver. Three sub-series: A6SE (basic), A6SF (full-featured with notch filter), A6SG (RS-485 comm). 50 W–5 kW, 200 V.
MADLT□□□SE · SF · SG Find A6S Drivers →Servo Accessories & Cables
I/O cables, encoder cables, safety interface cables, and communication cables for MINAS A6 and A7. Original Panasonic rated.
76 SKUs — DV0P□ · MFECA□ · DV0PM□ Find Accessories →4.0 kHz Response (A7)
Industry-leading velocity frequency response for the fastest, most precise motion — as of September 2023.
Battery-less Absolute (A7)
27-bit battery-less absolute encoder means no battery replacement, no homing routine on power-up.
Three Network Interfaces
Choose EtherCAT (B), RTEX (N), or pulse/analog (S) to fit your existing controller infrastructure.
IP67 + Triple-lip Seal
Motors rated IP67 with triple-lip oil seal for harsh washing environments and coolant exposure.
PANATERM Setup Software
Free single-axis setup software (Ver. 6) and PANATERM for Multi for multi-axis commissioning.
A6 Goes to 22 kW
A6 covers 400 V and powers up to 22 kW — heavy machine tools and large conveyor drives where A7 doesn't reach.
MINAS Commissioning Support
Our engineers support PANATERM setup, RTEX/EtherCAT integration, and motor-driver pairing selection.
