Product Description:

The AM3011-0BB1-C005 is a synchronous servo motor produced by Beckhoff within the AM Synchronous Servo Motors series. As a compact rotary actuator, it delivers closed-loop torque and position control in industrial automation equipment such as pick-and-place axes, small gantries, and packaging feeders. Its electrical design connects directly to the manufacturer’s AX5000 drive family, allowing deterministic motion profiles over EtherCAT networks.

Mechanical mounting is centered on a 40 mm square flange that aligns with IEC and NEMA micro-frame gearboxes. Feedback is supplied by an OCT multi-turn encoder with a resolution of 23 bits, enabling the drive to register 8,388,608 distinct shaft positions per revolution and track up to 4,096 turns without battery support. A built-in holding brake is powered from a separate control rail rated at 24 V DC. Isolating the brake coil from the main power bus simplifies safety circuits and permits emergency clamping during a loss of mains power. Output torque travels through a smooth shaft, so couplings rely on a frictional fit instead of a key, reducing backlash in low-inertia linkages.

The electromagnetic section uses winding code B, which indicates the wire gauge and number of turns per phase for medium speed and current demands. The motor has an overall length code of 1, giving it a short body that fits tight machine envelopes while still meeting thermal limits. When the brake is engaged, it can resist up to 0.60 Nm of static load, so vertical axes below that value can remain locked without external clamps. The motor is categorized as Standard within the AM range, meaning it carries the default insulation system and ambient operating limits used for factory-floor installations. The compact housing supports installation where axial clearance is limited, while the high-resolution encoder provides detailed position feedback for controlled starts, stops, and indexing movements.
