Product Description:

The AM8063-2K11-0000 is a synchronous servo motor produced by Beckhoff within the AM Synchronous Servo Motors series. As a standard version unit, it is intended for precision positioning and velocity control in industrial automation systems that use distributed PC-based motion platforms. The motor uses a 142 mm flange to mount directly to gearboxes or machine frames, and its smooth shaft couples to load elements without keyways. A radial shaft-sealing ring protects the internal bearings so the assembly can operate where spray, dust, or incidental contact with oil is present. As a synchronous servo motor, it is suited to axes that require repeatable speed regulation and accurate position changes during automated motion.

Electrical and mechanical interfaces are consolidated through a rotatable angular connector or terminal box, allowing cable routing along the machine structure. Rotor position is returned to the drive by a single-turn OCT encoder, enabling commutation and precise loop control from absolute feedback. Because the encoder provides absolute position information, the control system can establish rotor orientation without relying only on incremental counting. The integral braking circuit is energized at 24 VDC, which supports low-voltage brake operation during machine stops. The housing uses IP65 sealing to resist dust and water jets during normal wash-down exposure. The smooth shaft surface helps limit particulate retention and supports consistent contact at the shaft seal.

A factory-installed holding brake delivers a static torque of 20 Nm to 36 Nm, giving the axis enough margin to secure vertical loads during power loss. This brake helps keep suspended or vertical loads from drifting when drive power is removed. The motor uses overall length code 3, which keeps the housing compact enough for multi-axis gantries while still providing room for the winding pack. The winding code K identifies the electrical winding used in this motor size.
