Description
The Mitsubishi HG123 is an older / less common designation within the HG series AC servo motor family, used in some legacy Mitsubishi CNC systems (mainly early MDS-E generation machines).
š§ HG123 Servo Motor Overview
- Series: Mitsubishi HG AC servo motor family
- Type: Medium-power CNC feed-axis servo motor (legacy naming)
- Power class: ~1.2 kW range (approx.)
- Use case: Standard CNC axis control in older machine tool generations
āļø Key Characteristics (typical for HG123 class)
Because HG123 is not part of the commonly referenced modern HG lineup (HG54, HG75, HG104, etc.), its exact specs vary by machine generation, but generally:
- Medium frame size
- Moderate torque for feed axes
- 200V AC servo system
- High-resolution encoder feedback (CNC closed-loop control)
- Designed for balanced speed and cutting load capability
š Typical Applications
- Older CNC machining centers
- Feed axes (X/Y/Z) in legacy machines
- Milling and turning machines (mid-load range)
- Machines using early Mitsubishi MDS-E drives
š Position in HG family
HG123 sits in a legacy mid-range category:
- Above HG75 / HG54 light-duty motors
- Close to HG104 / HG105 class depending on machine generation
- Below HG154 / HG204 heavy-duty motors
š In practice:
- HG123 is often replaced by HG104 or HG105 equivalents, depending on torque and mounting compatibility
š Simple Meaning
HG123 =
Legacy Mitsubishi HG-series mid-power AC servo motor used in older CNC systems for standard feed-axis control (approx. ~1.2 kW class).
