Servo motors for high inertia applications

-- 1 October 2007

Ads by Google

Beckhoff extends its Drive Technology range with the AM3500 servo motor series. In contrast to current trends, these new servo motors have a higher moment of inertia, making them particularly suitable for machine tool axes with stringent synchronism requirements and for applications with higher inertia, such as rotary tables, without the need for an additional gear unit.
In conjunction with higher rotor inertia, they offer the same benefits as the Beckhoff AM3xxx motor series such as the pole-wound stator winding, which significantly reduces the overall motor size. The flanges, connectors and shafts of the new AM3500 series are also compatible with AM3000 motors.
The new AM3500 models are available with flange sizes 3 to 6, torques between 1.9 and 15 Nm, and rated speed range 3,000 to 6,000 rpm. Resolvers or absolute encoders (single- or multi-turn) are available as a feedback system. The standard protection class is IP 64; IP 65/67 is available as an option.
