Product Description:

The 8MSA5M.E0-X500-1 synchronous motor is manufactured by B&R Automation for the 8MS Three Phase Synchronous Motors series. It converts regulated drive current into repeatable rotary motion for pick-and-place units, gantry axes, and packaging spindles. That role makes it suitable for coordinated multi-axis equipment that depends on stable speed and position control.

The housing uses self-cooling, so heat leaves through the motor surface without an auxiliary fan. Position feedback is transmitted through EnDat, which gives the drive digital bidirectional communication for commutation and position evaluation. An optical disk with 512 lines provides base incremental information, and the electronics support edge counting up to ≥ 100 kHz (-3 dB) for reliable interpolation at higher shaft speeds. The feedback package is single-turn, so the absolute position repeats once per revolution.

The motor uses size code 5, giving it a balanced footprint for moderate-duty machinery. Its active stack follows length code M, which increases electromagnetic core length to raise torque density without enlarging the mounting pilot. Encoder accuracy is rated at ±60", helping the axis maintain precise angular positioning during synchronized motion. The motor is assigned a medium rated torque level, which fits applications that need brisk acceleration without the highest continuous load rating in the series.

Wake Industrial offers same-day shipping options for urgent orders. Each unit includes a 1-year warranty.
