Servomotors with higher moment of inertia

Beckhoff Automation has expanded its drive technology products with the AM3500 Series servomotors. A higher moment of inertia makes them suitable for machine tool axes with stringent synchronism requirements. The motors can eliminate a gear box in high inertia applications such as rotary tables. Motor flanges, connectors, and shafts are compatible with the company’s AM3000 motors.

Beckhoff Automation has expanded its drive technology products with the AM3500 Series servomotors. A higher moment of inertia makes them suitable for machine tool axes with stringent synchronism requirements. The motors can eliminate a gear box in high inertia applications such as rotary tables. Motor flanges, connectors, and shafts are compatible with the company’s AM3000 motors. The AM3500 models come in flange sizes 3 to 6, torques between 1.9 and 15 Nm, and rated speeds of 3,000 and 6,000 rpm. Resolvers or absolute encoders (single- or multi-turn) are available as a feedback system. The standard protection class is IP 64 with IP 65/67 an option. The series is CE-, UL- and CSA-listed. Based on new material and manufacturing technologies, the motors provide the features of AM3000 low-inertia servomotors, including compact size, achieved via pole-wound stator winding. www.beckhoffautomation.com Beckhoff Automation
