Product Description
The AX5103-0000 digital servo drive from Beckhoff offers robust motion control capabilities in a compact package. As part of the established AX Digital Servo Drive Series, this single-channel device combines responsive performance with modular design. Backed by over a decade of feedback encoder expertise, the AX5103-0000 supports high-precision feedback technologies like SinCos, EnDat, and Hiperface.
Rated for an output current of 3 amps per channel, the AX5103-0000 delivers ample rotational force for many applications. It can also supply short bursts of up to 7.5 amps when peak power is needed. Operating on a 100-480V AC supply voltage, the drive maintains efficiency across facilities with varied electrical infrastructure. Additional features such as process, jog, and home modes allow for flexible control sequencing.
Well-suited for machine automation, the AX5103-0000 employs EtherCAT as its high-speed system bus. EtherCAT integration facilitates synchronization of motion axes for coordinated movement. Control interfaces support sophisticated motion profiles and drive parameters that enhance positioning accuracy. The AX5103-0000 also maintains performance across an ambient temperature range from 0 to 50°C without requiring additional ventilation or mounting constraints. Weighing just 3.7 kg, the AX5103-0000 installs easily using space-efficient DIN rail or screws. Compliance with CE, cULus, and EAC regulations gives engineers further assurance of electrical safety. At just 92mm wide, multiple units mount side-by-side to independently power an array of motors. A rugged metallic casing shields sensitive electronics from vibration and moisture ingress.
