Nidec Unidrive M700 & the 5-Year Warranty the Industry Has Never Seen
At Lasrust Enterprises, we don’t just distribute products, we bring you solutions that deliver real value, reduce operational headaches, and protect your investment for the long term.
This month, we’re shining a light on a drive that means serious business: the Unidrive M700. Built for applications where good enough simply isn’t good enough
It’s a drive that performs at the highest level, and now, it’s backed by something the industry has never seen before: a standard 5-year warranty from Nidec, the first of its kind for high-performance and high-power drives. This is what confidence in your product looks like.
5 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD BE USING VSDs RIGHT NOW
Variable Speed Drives give you precise control over how your motors run and the benefits go far beyond simply adjusting speed:
- Energy Efficiency: VSDs allow for precise control of motor speed, which reduces energy consumption and costs by up to 70%.
- Cost Savings: The initial investment in a VSD pays for itself. By eliminating sudden starts and stops, VSDs reduce mechanical stress on motors, bearings, and connected equipment, lowering maintenance bills and extending equipment lifespan significantly. Less wear means fewer replacements, less downtime, and more money saved.
- Precision Control: VSDs provide precise control over motor speed and torque, which is crucial for applications requiring varying speeds, such as conveyor belts, fans, and pumps.
- Environmental Benefits: VSDs contribute to a reduced carbon footprint by improving power factor and reducing reactive power charges on electricity bills.
- Noise Reduction: VSDs can reduce noise levels in applications where motors operate at variable speeds, improving workplace conditions.
Using VSDs is a strategic decision for businesses and industries looking to optimize their energy use, extend the life of their equipment, and reduce operational costs.
NIDEC UNIDRIVE M700:
WHEN PERFORMANCE IS NON-NEGOTIABLE
High Performance AC Drive | 0.75 kW to 2.8 MW
The Unidrive M700 is the thoroughbred, a high-performance, multi-protocol drive designed for applications where control precision, communications flexibility, and scalability are not negotiable.
The M700 is built to work with virtually every type of industrial motor from standard AC induction motors to high-performance servo motors and controls them with exceptional precision. Think of it like the difference between a basic light switch and a dimmer with a digital display: you’re not just turning things on and off, you’re controlling exactly how much power goes where at exactly the right moment.
Where most drives can only connect to one type of control system, the M700 connects to four simultaneously:
EtherNet/IP, PROFINET RT, Modbus TCP, and RTMoE meaning your operator screen, your PLC, and your entire drive network can all talk to each other at the same time, without extra hardware.
The Unidrive M700 belongs wherever precision matters most:
Position control: Stacking, packaging, retreading, labelling, synchronised multi-axis movement via the built-in Advanced Motion Controller.
Torque control: Extrusion, winding, casting, test rigs, 250 microsecond torque update rate for precise, repeatable control that protects product quality.
Speed control: Hydraulic pumps, printing presses, cranes, hoists, conveyors, closed-loop control with universal feedback support maintains exact speed regardless of load.
High-power applications: Modular architecture scales from a single drive to multi-megawatt paralleled systems, all on the same control platform, commissioning tools and spare parts.
NEW 5 -YEAR WARRANTY THAT CHANGES THE INDUSTRY
The first of its kind in the industry, every drive in the Nidec range now comes with a standard 5-year warranty from the date of invoice, something no other drive manufacturer has been willing to offer. You buy it, you’re covered. It’s that simple.
What does that mean for you? Any unexpected failure in years three, four, or five, the downtime, the emergency replacements, the lost production, is covered. Your investment is protected and your maintenance budget stays predictable.
