Product Description:

The AM3044-0G20 is a synchronous servo motor manufactured by Beckhoff in the AM Synchronous Servo Motors series. It serves as a rotary actuator that translates drive commands into controlled torque and position for automated packaging stations, gantry axes, and general material-handling equipment. This compact motor supports tight motion loops when paired with a compatible servo drive. Its feedback arrangement helps the axis maintain accurate position tracking during repeated start-stop cycles, and the housing size suits machines where several motors must be placed close together.

Machine integration begins with a flange diameter of 87 mm, which fixes the mounting pattern and centers the stator in gear or bearing housings. The rotor carries a smooth shaft, so couplings must clamp radially rather than engage a key, helping minimize backlash during rapid reversals. Position data come from an OCT multi-turn encoder, which provides absolute angle information over several turns without battery support. Electrical behavior follows the G winding, a code that aligns voltage and current requirements with compatible servo drives. The motor is supplied without a holding brake, so static load retention must be provided by drive torque or external mechanical restraint.

Categorized as Standard inside the AM range, the motor uses the conventional insulation and thermal arrangement for this product line. Its housing corresponds to length code 4, which indicates a longer body within this flange size and allows more active material in the stator. The added stack length supports continuous torque capability while keeping the same mounting face and general shaft arrangement. Uniform cabling and connector styles used across the platform help the motor fit neatly into machine layouts that use the same drive family, and the interface remains straightforward for a standard servo axis.
