panasonic drive error 16.0

Panasonic Drive Error 16.0 signifies an

overload protection fault, meaning the motor's actual torque exceeded its set limits for too long.

Causes & Solution

1. Check the Load:

• Ensure that the load on the motor is within the rated capacity.
• Verify that there are no obstructions or excessive friction in the mechanical system connected to the motor.

2. Inspect Wiring and Connections:

• Check the wiring and connections between the servo drive and the motor. Loose or damaged wires can cause irregular current flow, leading to overloads.

3. Parameter Settings:

• Review the parameter settings in the servo drive, particularly those related to current limits, acceleration/deceleration times, and motor tuning.
• Ensure that the parameters match the motor and application requirements.

4. Check Motor Condition:

• Inspect the motor for any signs of damage or wear, such as unusual noises, vibrations, or overheating.
• If the motor is old or has been subjected to harsh conditions, it might be worth testing or replacing it.
