Product Description:

The AM3042-1G31-0000 is a synchronous servo motor manufactured by Beckhoff and assigned to the AM Synchronous Servo Motors series. It uses the standard series configuration and standard version, so it fits common parameter sets used with this motor line. The motor is intended for closed-loop motion systems where the drive must regulate acceleration, speed, and holding behavior with repeatable response. The unit supplies controlled torque and velocity to industrial axes, enabling coordinated motion in packaging lines, pick-and-place heads, and light machine tools.

Its brake operates on 24 VDC, so the coil can be energized directly from a common control supply without an added converter. A face flange of 87 mm matches compact gearboxes and mounting patterns used on mid-range machines. Position and speed feedback are returned through a Hiperface single-turn 128 SinCos encoder, which provides analog sine and cosine signals that the drive interpolates for fine resolution. The electromagnetic brake can hold up to 9 Nm of static load, allowing power-off clamping on vertical axes. Inside the stator, winding code G indicates the conductor size and number of turns, which set the resistance and inductance values expected by AX-series drive controllers.

Field wiring is simplified by a rotatable angular connector or terminal box, which lets cable exits be oriented toward the preferred route. This layout helps when the motor is installed in tight spaces or near moving machine sections that limit cable bend direction. During emergency stops, the integrated holding brake clamps the rotor, so no external clutch is required on suspended loads. Power is transmitted through a shaft with groove and feather key, a mechanical interface dimensioned under DIN 6885 that helps prevent hub slippage under cyclic torque. The motor uses length code 2, keeping the housing short for confined gantry spaces while leaving enough room for thermal mass around the active laminations.
