Features Advanced Mitsubishi Technology Creates a Winner Highly Cost-Effective and Very Powerful ■ High Torque (150 %) at Speeds as Low as 1Hz. Mitsubishi has achieved a 1Hz 150% torque by combining slip compensation with its original general-purpose flux vector control. Operation can be controlled by general-purpose flux vector control even when motor characteristics vary simply by using the off-line auto-tuning function.
