Product Description:

The AS1060-0110 is a two-phase stepper motor produced by Beckhoff for the AS Stepper Motors series. It is intended for closed-loop or open-loop positioning axes found in pick-and-place modules, labeling machines, and small conveyor drives where precise incremental rotation is required. To simplify installation, the unit ships with a 300 mm pre-terminated cable, and its built-in single-turn sensor provides a feedback resolution of 200 increments so the controller can confirm that every commanded step has been executed.

Mechanical and electrical performance data shape the drive interface. At standstill, the rotor develops a holding torque of 5.0 Nm, allowing clamped loads to remain stationary without external brakes. Each command step advances the shaft by 1.8°, yielding 200 full steps per revolution that align with the internal sensor count. The phase windings draw a rated current of 5.0 A, and the 0.36 Ω winding resistance helps keep copper losses manageable. Continuous operation delivers up to 68.8 W of mechanical power, while a rotor inertia of 3.0 kg cm² balances rapid acceleration with load smoothing. The 2.80 mH inductance restricts current rise, so most microstep drives can operate without additional series chokes, and the ±0.09° standstill backlash helps keep mid-band resonance errors low.

Service limits also affect application design. Ball bearings with an L10 life of 30,000 h support extended runtimes in systems that cycle continuously. The housing carries an IP20 protection class, so the motor should be mounted inside a guarded enclosure away from coolant spray or conductive dust. The shaft can accept an axial thrust of 60 N and a radial load of 191 N, figures that determine permissible belt tension and pulley diameter. With a mass of 2.85 kg, the frame can be supported by light aluminum brackets without exceeding common dynamic load limits.
