Product Description:

The MKE045B-144-KP1-KN is a synchronous servo motor produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat as part of the MKE Synchronous Motors series. It functions as a rotary actuator in automated production lines, converting commanded electrical power into precisely regulated torque and speed so that indexing tables, pick-and-place loaders, or small conveyor sections can follow motion profiles generated by the drive controller. This operating role suits compact motion axes that require repeatable starts, stops, and speed changes during continuous machine cycles.

The conductors leave the housing on the top and terminate inside a sealed terminal box, which simplifies cable routing and helps shield connections from airborne dust. This cable exit arrangement keeps the connection point accessible while directing leads away from the shaft area. During power loss or emergency stops, the motor holds position because it is supplied with a holding brake, removing the need for external clamping on vertical or suspended loads. Classified as a servo motor for potentially explosive areas, the unit can operate in zones that contain ignitable gases when paired with properly rated drives and feedback devices. Torque is transferred through a shaft with keyway, giving the output a positive-drive interface for pulleys, gears, or flexible couplings that see frequent speed changes.

The machined DIN 6885 keyway helps maintain secure torque transmission between the motor and the driven element. A dedicated shaft seal helps keep lubricants from migrating along the journal and reduces the entry of fine particulates into the stator cavity. Electromagnetic behavior is set by winding code 144, which matches the motor’s electrical characteristics to compatible drives for stable current regulation across the speed range. This combination supports applications where the shaft connection and sealing system must remain dependable through repeated motion cycles.
