Delta ECMA, ECM-B, and ECM-B3 series servo motors are Taiwanese-OEM value-to-mid tier brushless AC servo motors stocked by Flextech Industrial Supplies for Malaysian machine builders and system integrators standardised on Delta automation hardware, and for budget-sensitive new machine builds requiring absolute encoder servo capability below the pricing of Japanese mid-tier brands.
Delta servo motors occupy the value-to-mid tier in the Malaysian servo motor market – above Autonics in ecosystem integration depth (broader Delta automation product family, larger Malaysian installed base) and competitive with the lower end of Panasonic MSM/MDM pricing on ECM-B3 absolute encoder models. The Delta ASDA-A3 + ECMA servo system is the most widely deployed non-Japanese servo system in Malaysian SME automation, with established Malaysian Delta distributor presence providing service continuity. Flextech quotes Delta servo motors within 24-48 hours from Puchong, Selangor.
About Delta Servo: Taiwanese OEM Servo System
Delta Electronics' servo motor product line (ECMA, ECM-B, ECM-B3 series) is designed as a matched system with Delta ASDA servo drive amplifiers - Taiwanese-OEM brushless AC servo motors with absolute encoder options covering 100W to 22 kW, positioned as the value-to-mid tier servo alternative to Japanese Panasonic and Mitsubishi servo systems in the Southeast Asia market.
Delta servo systems have significant installed base in Malaysian SME manufacturing - F&B packaging, general assembly, CNC retrofit, and rubber processing - driven by Delta's combined pricing advantage versus Japanese servo brands and Delta's established Malaysian distributor network providing local spare parts and technical support.
Delta Servo Motor Product Lines
| Series | Encoder | Power Range | Speed | Drive Pairing | Generation |
| ECMA | 17-bit incremental (older) / 17-bit abs (newer) | 100W-22 kW | 2,000-3,000 rpm | ASDA-A3 | Current standard |
| ECM-B | 20-bit absolute | 750W-7.5 kW | 2,000-3,000 rpm | ASDA-B3 | Current mid |
| ECM-B3 | 23-bit absolute | 100W-3 kW | 2,000-3,000 rpm | ASDA-B3 | Current latest |
Delta ECMA series covers the broadest Delta servo power range - 100W to 22 kW - and is the widest-stocked Delta servo motor in Malaysia. ECMA motors pair with Delta ASDA-A3 servo drives. The ECMA series covers all standard machine automation requirements from small labelling servo axes (100W-400W) through packaging line registration drives (750W-2 kW) to large material handling and CNC axis applications (5-22 kW).
Delta ECM-B series provides higher torque density in a compact frame compared to ECMA at equivalent power ratings, paired with Delta ASDA-B3 servo drives. ECM-B targets applications where the ECMA frame size is too large for the mechanical mounting constraint but a higher continuous torque is required than small-frame ECMA provides.
Delta ECM-B3 series is the latest generation Delta servo motor - 23-bit absolute encoder (8,388,608 counts/revolution), comparable to Panasonic MINAS A6's 23-bit absolute resolution at value-tier motor pricing. ECM-B3 absolute encoder eliminates homing on power-up: the motor retains shaft position across power cycles, mandatory for vertical axis, tool changer, and gravity-loaded applications. ECM-B3 coverage of 100W-3 kW addresses the small-to-medium frame absolute encoder requirement for Malaysian machine builders who previously had to specify Panasonic MSM or Mitsubishi HG motors for absolute encoder capability at this power range.
Technical Specifications
Encoder (ECM-B3): 23-bit absolute, 8,388,608 counts/revolution. Absolute multi-turn encoder retains position across power cycles. Compatible with Delta ASDA-B3 servo drive absolute encoder initialisation parameter sequence.
Peak torque: 300% of rated continuous torque, 3-second duration - standard for acceleration from standstill on Malaysian packaging and assembly machine profiles.
IP protection: IP65 standard on ECMA, ECM-B, and ECM-B3 series - dust-tight and water-jet resistant per IEC 60529. Adequate for Malaysian factory floor installation on standard machine frames.
Shaft options: Smooth shaft (for coupling), keyed shaft, and flange-mount variants depending on frame size. Specify shaft type at order for machined coupling or gearbox interface.
Operating temperature: 0-40°C ambient. Malaysian factory ambient of 28-35°C is within range. Servo motor body temperature rises with duty cycle - adequate airflow around the motor body is required to maintain winding temperature within rated limits on high-duty-cycle applications.
Delta ECMA vs Panasonic MSM: Selection Guide
Malaysian machine builders evaluating Delta ECMA versus Panasonic MSM face a classic value-tier vs mid-tier servo decision.
Specify Delta ECMA/ECM-B3 when: (1) The machine is already Delta-standardised - Delta PLC, Delta VFD, Delta ASDA drive - where Delta ECMA motor completes the single-vendor BOM. (2) Budget constraints favour value-to-mid tier motor pricing and ECM-B3 23-bit absolute encoder resolution meets the application accuracy requirement. (3) Application requires servo power above 15 kW - Delta ECMA covers to 22 kW, while Panasonic MINAS A6 caps at 15 kW.
Specify Panasonic MSM/MDM when: (1) The machine uses EtherCAT or Panasonic FP PLC-based motion control (Panasonic MINAS A6 drive ecosystem). (2) Application requires the broadest Malaysian servo motor service coverage - Panasonic Industrial Malaysia provides direct OEM-level technical support that Delta servo does not match at equivalent depth. (3) Three-inertia-class motor flexibility (MSM/MDM/MHM) within a single MINAS A6 drive is a mechanical design advantage the application requires.
Applications in Malaysian Manufacturing
Delta-standardised SME automation - Malaysian manufacturers running Delta AS PLC + Delta MS300 VFD on packaging and conveyor automation specify Delta ECMA servo motors for servo axis additions, maintaining single-vendor BOM through Flextech with unified quotation.
CNC retrofit - Malaysian job shop CNC machine retrofits using Delta ASDA drives for axis control commonly specify ECMA servo motors replacing worn Japanese servo motors, where Delta ECMA's lower cost relative to Japanese replacement motors enables project approval within SME capital budgets.
Packaging servo axes - Delta ECMA small-frame motors (100W-750W) on labelling registration servo drives and form-fill-seal film tension servo axes in Malaysian F&B packaging OEM machines.
Vertical axis with absolute encoder - ECM-B3 (23-bit absolute) on Malaysian injection moulding machine ejector axes and press brake back gauge drives where power loss without position retention would cause machine damage - the first generation of Delta servo motors to address this requirement at value-tier pricing.
