System Architecture & Signal Flow
In the IRB 6700 drive architecture, each axis servo motor interfaces with the IRC5 Drive Module via a shielded motor cable (power) and a resolver/encoder cable (feedback). The IRC5 Main Computer issues motion commands through the Drive Module, which regulates current to the servo motor windings. Position feedback from the integrated resolver is returned to the Drive Module for closed-loop torque and velocity control. The 3HAC042494-002 / 3HAC042495-002 / 3HAC046232-006 units are plug-compatible with this signal chain, requiring only standard ABB commissioning procedures (motor calibration via RobotStudio or FlexPendant) after installation.

Technical FAQ
Q: Are 3HAC042494-002, 3HAC042495-002, and 3HAC046232-006 interchangeable?
A: No. Each part number corresponds to a specific axis or variant within the IRB 6700 family. Consult the ABB spare parts manual to confirm the correct PN for your robot serial number and axis.
Q: Is re-calibration required after motor replacement?
A: Yes. ABB requires axis calibration (fine calibration or revolution counter update) after any servo motor replacement. This is performed via the FlexPendant or RobotStudio.
Q: What IRC5 software version is required?
A: RobotWare 6.x or later is recommended. Confirm compatibility with your IRC5 system version before installation.
Q: Can you supply the motor cable and resolver cable as well?
A: Yes. Contact support@konmask.com with your robot serial number for a complete cable kit quotation.
Q: Do you offer exchange/core return programs?
A: Core exchange options may be available for qualified accounts. Contact us for details.
