Product Description:

The AM3042-0G41-0000 is a servo motor built by Beckhoff for its AM Synchronous Servo Motors series and is listed in the Synchronous Servomotors product series. It is used as a rotary drive element in automated machinery, where it receives current from a matched power stage and delivers precise torque and speed for indexing tables, pick-and-place heads, or similar motion axes. Integration of a holding brake and digital encoder allows the motor to maintain position during power-off states and to report absolute shaft position to the drive firmware for closed-loop control.

The mechanical interface is defined by an 87 mm square flange, giving designers a standard mounting footprint. Power and feedback conductors are routed through a Rotatable angular connector or an optional terminal box, so cable exit can be oriented to suit the cabinet layout. Position feedback is supplied by a Hiperface multi-turn 128 SinCos system from the F6 family, enabling high-resolution absolute position data over many revolutions. When the brake circuit is energized at 24 VDC, the internal brake coil releases; once de-energized it clamps the shaft with a holding capability of 9 Nm, preventing back-drive on vertical or high-inertia loads during idle or emergency stop conditions.

The motor variant is identified as Standard in both its version field and its motor series type, signaling no special coatings or cooling extras. Its overall length is marked by code 2, balancing continuous torque with a compact housing. A 24 V holding brake is factory-installed, matching the control voltage commonly distributed in Beckhoff control cabinets. Output is delivered through a smooth shaft, eliminating keyway stress points in backlash-free clamp couplings. Electrically, the stator uses the G winding, which sets the resistance and inductance values chosen for medium-speed, medium-torque applications. These characteristics make the motor a straightforward drop-in choice when a Standard configuration is specified across a machine family.
