Need servo motors that deliver extremely accurate and responsive motion control for your industrial automation system? As an engineer, you're probably familiar with Beckhoff Automation and their reputation for top-notch synchronous servo motors. These smart motors from Beckhoff give you the precision and performance needed for applications like robotics, CNC machines, manufacturing processes, and more.

What is a Servo Motor?

Servo motors differ from regular AC and DC motors in their ability to be precisely controlled. While a standard motor rotates at a constant speed based on power input, a servo couples a motor with a feedback device that continuously monitors rotational position and velocity.

This closed-loop feedback gives servo motors the ability to adjust output extremely quickly to hit target positions, speeds, or accelerations. As soon as the feedback sensor detects even minute deviations, the servo automatically self-corrects to maintain the desired motion profile.

This capability makes servo motors perfect for applications like CNC machines, packaging equipment, assembly robots, and complex manufacturing processes requiring precise coordination. Their accuracy and responsiveness far exceed a regular motor.

Benefits of Beckhoff Servo Motors

Beckhoff offers a wide range of servo motors to fit different needs. After reviewing their specs and capabilities, a few reasons these servos are so popular stood out:

  • They can reach extremely fast speeds up to 8000 rpm, which is awesome for quick movements and rapid response times.
  • Built rugged with IP54 protection, they can handle tough conditions involving dust, moisture and vibration that fry other motors.
  • Feedback devices provide real-time data for precise closed-loop control of position and velocity.
  • Multiple models available so you can find the right torque, power rating, voltage, etc. for your application.

Two of their most popular models are:

  • AM3011-0B00-0000 - 230V AC motor with 0.14 kW rating and 0.708 Nm peak torque, great for precision positioning tasks.
  • AM3023-0D40-0000 - With 1.16 Nm standstill torque and 4.43 Nm peak torque, this 480V AC motor tackles high-load applications.
