Product Description:
Beckhoff’s AM8563-0QHC-0000 belongs to the AM Synchronous Servo Motors series and the Synchronous Servomotors product family. Delivered in the Standard version, the unit supplies rotational power for positioning and speed-controlled tasks in industrial automation. It is suitable for packaging lines, pick-and-place axes, material-handling equipment, and similar motion platforms that require controlled torque and accurate movement.
The motor bolts to machinery through a square flange that measures 142 mm, providing a stable mounting interface for compatible gearboxes and couplings. Its housing uses overall length code 3, which corresponds to the magnetic stack depth and continuous torque capacity of this configuration. Position data is generated by an encoder with 24-bit resolution, providing fine feedback for precise servo control and repeatable load positioning. The encoder uses the OCT multi-turn principle, so the drive receives both the angle within a single revolution and the absolute revolution count without requiring a battery. The enclosure has an IP65 rating, preventing dust ingress and protecting the internal windings from low-pressure water jets during machine cleaning.
Thermal management is handled by a 24 V fan designated F5, which provides forced-air cooling during demanding duty cycles. Power and feedback cables exit through a rotatable angular connector or a terminal box, allowing the connection direction to be adjusted for strain relief and routing in confined spaces. Functional safety capabilities meet SIL 2, enabling safe torque off when the motor is integrated with compatible certified controls. The winding uses code Q, which associates its resistance and inductance values with the required inverter output. The unit has an increased mass moment of inertia that helps smooth load transients when driving heavy tooling or mechanisms with changing loads. Its smooth shaft transfers torque through a shrink-fit or clamping coupling rather than a keyed connection. The motor is supplied without a holding brake, so an external mechanical device or continuous drive torque must secure static loads when power is removed.
