The Allen Bradley MPL-A310P-HK72AA Servo Motor is designed for high-response industrial motion applications where accurate and repeatable movement is essential to machine performance.
Its MP-Series MPL architecture combines low-inertia operation with high-speed capability. The motor's 25.4 mm magnet stack and 5000 RPM class make it appropriate for applications involving frequent acceleration and deceleration, while the 2000-line incremental encoder supports closed-loop position and speed control.
The 100 mm frame size allows the motor to be incorporated into relatively compact machine assemblies. Its keyless shaft arrangement can be paired with suitable couplings, while the right-angle rotatable connector provides additional flexibility for motor-cable routing.
The MPL-A310P-HK72AA should always be identified using its complete catalog number. Other MPL motors can have similar frame sizes but different feedback systems, shaft configurations, connector arrangements, speeds, or brake options.
For OEMs, system integrators, and maintenance teams working with Allen Bradley motion-control equipment, this servo motor offers a practical solution for high-cycle positioning, indexing, packaging, and automated handling applications.

Industrial Motion Applications
The Allen Bradley MPL-A310P-HK72AA Servo Motor is an MP-Series low-inertia brushless AC servo motor developed for automated equipment requiring responsive acceleration, repeatable positioning, and controlled high-speed motion.
This configuration combines a 100 mm frame size, 25.4 mm magnet stack, 5000 RPM speed class, 2000-line incremental encoder, keyless shaft extension, and a right-angle rotatable SpeedTEC DIN connector. It is particularly suitable for machines where rapid cyclic motion and compact mechanical integration are important.
Typical applications include:
High-speed packaging equipment
Automated assembly machinery
Indexing and feeding systems
Pick-and-place equipment
Printing and converting machinery
Labeling systems
Precision material handling
Automated inspection machines
Machine tools
General industrial motion-control systems
The low-inertia design is well suited to applications that repeatedly accelerate, decelerate, and reposition the driven mechanism.
Motion-Control Advantages
High-speed response
The MPL-A310P-HK72AA belongs to the 5000 RPM class, making it suitable for applications where rapid motor response can contribute to shorter machine cycles.
Low-inertia construction
A low-inertia rotor can respond quickly to changes in the commanded motion profile. This is valuable in high-cycle positioning and indexing applications.
Incremental encoder feedback
The 2000-line incremental encoder provides feedback for closed-loop servo control, allowing the motion system to monitor motor movement and regulate operation.
Compact 100 mm frame
The 100 mm frame size offers a useful combination of servo capability and compact mechanical integration for automated equipment.
Keyless shaft design
The keyless shaft extension provides flexibility when selecting compatible couplings and mechanical transmission components.
Flexible connector orientation
The right-angle SpeedTEC DIN connector supports 180-degree rotational adjustment, helping simplify cable routing in space-constrained machine designs.
Brake-free configuration
This particular configuration does not include an integrated brake. Applications requiring positive load holding must therefore incorporate an appropriate external mechanical solution.
Designed for demanding automation
The combination of high speed, low inertia, feedback control, and compact construction makes this motor suitable for production equipment where motion performance directly influences cycle time.
Technical FAQs
1. What type of servo motor is the MPL-A310P-HK72AA?
It is an Allen Bradley MP-Series MPL low-inertia brushless AC rotary servo motor designed for industrial motion-control applications.
2. What is the motor's speed rating?
The MPL-A310P-HK72AA belongs to the 5000 RPM servo-motor class. Actual operating speed should be established according to the compatible drive, load, motion profile, and machine requirements.
3. What type of feedback does this model use?
The motor uses a 2000-line incremental encoder. The feedback system allows the servo drive to monitor motor movement as part of closed-loop control.
4. Why is feedback configuration important when selecting a replacement?
The servo drive must be configured to recognize and process the motor's feedback correctly. A motor with a different feedback arrangement may not operate correctly even if its mechanical dimensions appear similar.
5. What can cause a following error during rapid acceleration?
Potential causes include excessive load inertia, aggressive acceleration settings, insufficient servo tuning, mechanical backlash, coupling problems, or feedback abnormalities.
6. Why might the motor vibrate at certain speeds?
Speed-dependent vibration may be associated with mechanical resonance, shaft misalignment, coupling problems, mounting conditions, or inappropriate control-loop tuning. Both the mechanical axis and servo configuration should be evaluated.
7. Does this motor have an integrated holding brake?
No. The MPL-A310P-HK72AA is a brake-free configuration. If the machine requires the axis to remain mechanically secured after power is removed, an appropriate external holding mechanism should be considered.
8. What should be checked when the motor does not move after servo enable?
Inspect active faults, servo-enable conditions, controller commands, feedback status, motor power connections, safety circuits, and the configured command source.
9. How can excessive motor temperature be investigated?
Check motor current, mechanical load, duty cycle, acceleration frequency, cooling conditions, alignment, and servo tuning. A motor that repeatedly operates near its limits may require a different sizing approach.
10. What should be done before commissioning a replacement motor?
Verify the complete catalog number, servo-drive compatibility, feedback configuration, power wiring, grounding, mechanical alignment, coupling, and control parameters. Begin with controlled low-speed testing before applying the full production motion profile.
