Product Description:

The AS1060-1000 is a two-phase stepper motor manufactured by Beckhoff and assigned to the AS Stepper Motors series. It translates pulse trains from a motion controller into discrete shaft movements, so it can drive indexing tables, feed rollers, or compact X-Y stages that rely on open-loop yet repeatable positioning.

During operation the motor delivers a holding torque of 5.0 Nm, enough to keep loads stationary when current is applied but motion is stopped. A full revolution is divided into 200 integral steps, each defined by a 1.8° step angle, which lets control software advance the shaft in fine increments without micro-stepping. The windings require a phase current of 5.0 A; at this current level the device produces a mechanical output of 68.8 W. The laminated rotor carries 3.0 kg cm² of inertia, providing a balance between quick acceleration and smooth deceleration. Bearing design supports 191 N of radial load at the flange and 60 N of axial thrust, while the predicted bearing life is 30 000 h when these limits are respected. Radial backlash does not exceed 0.025 mm, so shaft position remains consistent when direction reverses, and overall weight stands at 2.85 kg for straightforward mounting on small frames.

Total shaft play is further restricted by a maximum axial backlash of 0.075 mm. Electrically, each phase presents a winding inductance of 2.80 mH and a winding resistance of 0.36 Ohm; together they define the current rise time and copper loss at high step rates. The housing conforms to the IP20 protection class, meaning the unit must be installed inside an enclosure that shields it from conductive dust or dripping fluids. With these mechanical clearances, electrical constants, and a rotor stabilized by 30 000 h bearings, the motor maintains accurate incremental motion across its service life.
