Product Description:

The AM8061-0M00-0000 is a synchronous servo motor manufactured by Beckhoff and supplied as part of the AM Synchronous Servo Motors series. Acting as the rotary element in a drive system, it pairs with Beckhoff AX5000 or comparable controllers to deliver accurate speed and position regulation in assembly cells, pick-and-place modules, and material-processing machines. Its high torque density and quick response support motion profiles that shorten cycle times while maintaining the repeatability required in automated production environments. Electronic commutation allows the connected controller to regulate torque smoothly across changing speeds and loads.

The motor housing accepts power and feedback leads through a rotatable angular connector or terminal box, allowing the cable exit to be aligned with the cabinet layout while minimizing bending strain. A flange diameter of 142 mm follows IEC mounting conventions, so the unit can bolt directly to gearheads or machine plates of a matching size. Rotor position is reported by a two-pole resolver, which provides analog sine-cosine signals that the drive interpolates for fine incremental control, even during rapid acceleration. Because the motor is supplied without a holding brake, vertical axes that require static load retention must rely on mechanical clamping or drive torque when power is removed. This brake configuration also avoids adding brake-related wiring to the motor connection.

The motor integrates with the Synchronous Servomotors platform through mechanical and electrical features suited to controlled motion systems. The output end uses a smooth shaft, making it suitable for shrink-fit couplings or backlash-free clamping adapters where keyways are not desired. Its overall length is represented by length code 1, providing a compact stack that fits shallow installation spaces while supporting the required thermal capacity. The motor has the Standard performance class, which provides the baseline operating characteristics for this model. Drive adaptation follows winding code M, allowing current and voltage parameters to align with medium-inertia loads that benefit from resolver feedback in synchronized multi-axis systems. The compact housing and flexible connection arrangement also help route cables around nearby machine structures without interfering with the shaft coupling.
