MDS (Motor Drive System): A New Standard in Integrated VFD Motor Drive Technology

MDS (Motor Drive System) is our new family of AC brushless motor and drive electronics, available in NEMA 56C and IEC 80 B14. Designed to meet the increasing demand for compact, high-performance motion control, MDS offers a fully integrated VFD motor drive solution, eliminating the need for separate inverters and external wiring.

Mechatronics Systems developed the MDS family to address the need for smaller machine footprints, reduced wiring complexity, and superior performance compared to traditional AC induction or DC permanent magnet variable speed drives.

MDS combines a high-performance motor and drive into a single compact package, significantly reducing space requirements while delivering better efficiency and torque output than AC induction or DC brush motors of the same power rating.

Unlike traditional AC induction motor and variable speed inverter setups, MDS is far more energy-efficient and provides full torque even at low speeds, offering servo-like performance in demanding applications.

MDS is the ideal replacement for DC brush motors and AC induction motors, delivering all the performance benefits of brush motors without the drawbacks of brush wear, size limitations, or speed restrictions.

The integrated VFD motor drive technology in MDS makes it the perfect choice for variable speed DC and AC induction motor applications. Whether upgrading existing systems or designing new machines, MDS provides:
Compact footprint for space savings
Simplified wiring for easy integration
High torque and energy efficiency
Excellent low-speed velocity control

MDS is the preferred solution for a wide range of applications, including:

  • Smart conveyors
  • Robotic vehicles
  • Centrifuges
  • Metering pumps
  • Mixers
  • Linear actuators
  • Small power CNC spindles
  • Plastic molding machines

 

All our products are designed and manufactured in the USA at our factory in Boston, MA.

Upgrade your system today with MDS, the next evolution in integrated VFD motor drive technology!
