ABB India Limited has announced the launch of the ACS380-E drive, a new machinery drive designed for high performance, connectivity, and cybersecurity. This drive is part of ABB’s all-compatible drive portfolio and is engineered for automation-centric machine building. It features dual built-in Ethernet ports for plug-and-play connectivity with leading industrial automation networks and integrated cybersecurity measures.
The ACS380-E drive supports all common rotary motor types across global voltage ranges from 100 to 600 volts. It is designed to deliver superior motor control for applications such as packaging systems, conveyors, extrusion lines, and multi-axis machinery. The drive is compatible with major automation systems, including ABB’s AC500 PLC, and integrates into confined cabinet spaces through compact construction and versatile installation options.
In the context of India’s manufacturing landscape, which is rapidly embracing digitalization and smart-factory upgrades, the ACS380-E drive supports this shift by offering advanced connectivity and easy commissioning. The drive enables fast USB-C “cold commissioning,” allowing configuration and firmware updates without powering on, thus reducing installation and setup time. It also simplifies machine integration and is future-proofed for industrial automation.
The ACS380-E drive was launched at ENGIMACH 2025 in Gandhinagar, which takes place from December 3 to December 7, 2025. It is available in India with ratings of up to 22kW, 400V. The drive’s embedded dual Ethernet ports and selectable protocols eliminate the need for separate option modules, reducing complexity and installation time. The drive is enhanced by ABB’s Drive Composer software and is compatible with the new Drive Composer 3, simplifying monitoring and management of equipment.
