Product Description:

The AM8042-0F11-0000 belongs to the AM Synchronous Servo Motors series manufactured by Beckhoff. It is a brushless servo motor intended to deliver precise torque and position control in industrial automation axes such as pick-and-place modules and packaging stations. When paired with compatible drive controllers, the motor converts electrical energy into coordinated rotary motion for tasks that require repeatable velocity profiles and accurate point-to-point moves.

The brake uses a DC supply rated at 24 VDC, so it can release and engage without an external converter. A square 87 mm mounting flange sets the mechanical interface and aligns the housing to gearboxes or machine frames with a consistent bolt pattern. An optional 24 V holding brake locks the shaft when power is removed and can resist up to 9 Nm of static load to help prevent vertical axes from drifting. The motor has a smooth shaft, so torque is transferred through clamp or friction couplings rather than keyed hubs, which helps limit runout during high-speed operation.

Motion feedback is delivered by an OCT single-turn encoder that supplies absolute position within one revolution and reduces homing time after power cycles. Power and signal lines exit through a rotatable angular connector or terminal box, and the connector can be swiveled to clear adjacent components while preserving the seal. The stator uses the F winding code, which gives the motor impedance values matched to compatible drive controllers. The motor has an overall length code 2, which keeps the housing short enough for compact installations while still providing adequate stack length for rated torque. This standard version follows general-purpose mechanical tolerances and fits conveyor, gantry, or indexer assemblies without custom machining.
