Product Description:

The MSK040B-0600-NN-M1-AG0-NNNN synchronous servomotor is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and is part of the MSK IndraDyn S Synchronous Motors series. As an electric drive element, the unit converts commanded current from a drive controller into controlled torque and speed, allowing coordinated motion of automated machine axes. Its standard mechanical design, combined with integrated feedback electronics, supports precise positioning tasks in conveyor modules, pick-and-place units, and light machining spindles without requiring additional transmission stages. This arrangement makes the motor suitable for compact motion systems where accurate response and consistent axis control are required.

The motor uses natural convection for thermal dissipation, so heat leaves the housing through surface radiation and ambient airflow, and no external blower or liquid circuit is required when installation clearances are maintained. Its frame code 040 indicates a compact cross-section, while the B length increases the active stack to raise continuous torque without changing the mounting footprint. The 0600 winding code identifies the electrical winding arrangement used for moderate current and voltage ranges. A molded terminal on the A-side serves the power connector, and the shaft is a plain, non-keyed version suited to clamp couplings. The enclosure is sealed to IP65, protecting against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets. Position feedback and drive communication rely on the Hiperface serial encoder interface.

The integrated optical encoder provides 128 signal periods per electrical revolution and includes multi-turn absolute position tracking, allowing the controller to recover shaft position immediately after power-up. Because the motor is supplied without a holding brake, external clamping or drive torque must secure static loads whenever power is removed. Continuous operation is permitted in ambient temperatures from 0–40°C, which matches typical industrial indoor conditions. Internally, Class 155 insulation materials tolerate winding temperatures up to 155 °C, providing thermal durability during repeated duty cycles. This combination of encoder capability and insulation class supports stable operation in applications with frequent starts, stops, and position updates.
