Product Description

The dual-channel AX5201-0000 servo drive from Beckhoff provides responsive motion control for sophisticated automation needs. As part of the established AX Digital Servo Drive Series, this device combines responsive performance with an efficient design. Each of its two channels supplies a rated output of 1.5 amps continuous current with the ability to surge up to 5 amps peak.

This drive supports a diverse array of feedback technologies to accommodate a wide range of motor types. Options include absolute measuring methods like SinCos 1 Vpp as well as other high-resolution encoders. Compliant with EtherCAT protocols, the AX5201-0000 facilitates high-speed communication and synchronized multi-axis coordination. Further benefits come from compatibility with SERCOS drive profiles, streamlining commissioning.

Constructed for durability in industrial environments, the AX5201-0000 maintains operations across ambient temperatures from 0 to 50 degrees Celsius without additional ventilation requirements. It also meets IP20 ingress protection standards, defending sensitive electronics from moisture and particles. Measuring just 274x232x185mm and weighing 6.5kg, the drive installs efficiently using modular mounting. The AX5201-0000 leverages Beckhoff engineering excellence to deliver precise motion regulation. Its dual channels operate independently to power separate motors or share load current across two drives. Combined with EtherCAT integration, closed-loop digital control ensures micrometer-level positioning accuracy with minimal error accumulation over time.
