The Allen-Bradley MPL-B420F-M-X225 Servo Motor is part of the MP-Series family of motors used in industrial automation and motion-control systems. It is intended for applications where precise and repeatable motor movement is more important than simple constant-speed operation.
The MPL-B420F-M-X225 has a 100 mm frame size and a specified weight of 2.81 kg (6.20 lb). Its relatively lightweight construction can be beneficial in applications where motor mass influences the mechanical design or moving-axis load.
Servo motors are commonly used in packaging, assembly, material handling, machine tools, printing, robotics, and automated production equipment. In a complete motion system, the motor works together with a compatible servo drive, controller, and feedback arrangement to provide controlled movement.
For replacement projects, it is important to verify the complete model number rather than selecting a motor based only on frame size. Electrical characteristics, feedback configuration, shaft arrangement, mounting interface, and drive compatibility should all be checked before installation.
