Product Description:

The AM8031-1DH1-0000 is a synchronous servo motor produced by Beckhoff and organized under the AM Synchronous Servo Motors series. Within automation systems, it supplies controlled rotary motion for indexing tables and gantry axes where accurate speed and position control are required. The model has length code 1 and is supplied in the standard version, which suits installations that require uniform mechanical dimensions without special extensions. Its compact arrangement also supports machine layouts where multiple motors must be installed in limited space.

In mechanical terms, the motor carries a flange diameter of 72 mm, providing a consistent mounting interface for gearheads or direct drives. Electrical termination is handled through a rotatable angular connector or terminal box, allowing the cable outlet to be aligned with adjacent hardware and reducing bending stress at the connection point. Position feedback is delivered through an OCT multi-turn encoder with 24-bit resolution, enabling precise positioning and stable closed-loop control. The encoder and integrated holding brake use a common auxiliary supply of 24 VDC, which simplifies wiring. The brake engages automatically when the drive is disabled, helping hold the axis at standstill.

The holding brake provides between 2 Nm to 3.5 Nm of torque, depending on the selected motor length, and this range is suitable for moderate inertial loads at standstill. The motor supports safety-related applications up to SIL 2 when it is used within an appropriate drive-level safety architecture. Power is transmitted through a shaft with a groove and feather key made to DIN 6885, providing a standardized mechanical interface for couplings and driven components. The magnetic circuit uses winding code D, which sets the electrical characteristics for standard duty cycles.
