Product Description:
The AM3042-0E20-0000 servo motor is produced by Beckhoff and belongs to the AM Synchronous Servo Motors series. As a rotary actuator it converts drive current into precise torque for positioning axes, pick-and-place heads, and packaging stations within distributed control architectures. Its design follows IEC mounting conventions, so the unit can be integrated into modular machines alongside other Beckhoff components. The motor targets servo loops that require high stiffness and minimal backlash while keeping the footprint compact in machines with limited installation space.
The mechanical interface uses an 87 mm flange, allowing direct mounting to planetary gearboxes and linear modules common in medium-frame stations. Power and signal cabling can be oriented during installation because the motor is supplied with a rotatable angular connector or terminal box. The rotor transmits motion through a smooth shaft, an arrangement suited for backlash-free clamping couplings rather than keyed hubs. Absolute position is captured by an OCT multi-turn feedback system that stores several revolutions of data for immediate homing after power cycles. Code E identifies the winding, matching the voltage and current limits assigned to this frame, while the overall length code of 2 corresponds to the active lamination stack, which supports continuous torque output and thermal mass.
For builders that need compact axes, the motor is supplied without a holding brake, so the control system must handle passive load retention or an external brake. Vertical or suspended loads therefore need separate holding force when power is removed. The design is the Standard version, meaning it uses the base bearing set, insulation class, and surface finish used for the series rather than a special configuration. It is part of the Synchronous Servomotors product family and uses the same general mechanical format found across the line.
