Functional Features:

  • Single-turn absolute encoder delivers absolute position within 0° to 360° immediately at power-on
  • Smooth shaft compatible with clamping hub couplings for zero-backlash torque transmission
  • Natural convection cooling — zero maintenance, silent operation
  • High speed capability up to 5000 rpm with constant torque region
  • Optimized for Baumüller b maXX 5000 / 3000 servo drive systems

Structural Characteristics:

  • Housing: Aluminum die-cast, corrosion-resistant anodized finish
  • Stator: Laminated silicon steel, 0.35 mm thickness, epoxy-coated for moisture resistance
  • Rotor: Surface-mounted NdFeB magnets, 4-pole configuration
  • Bearings: Sealed precision ball bearings, L10 life ≥ 25,000 hours at rated load
  • ShaftC45 hardened steel, Ø28 mm, Ra 0.4 µm surface finish, smooth (no keyway)

Working Principle:
Three-phase AC currents from the servo amplifier generate a rotating magnetic field in the stator. The NdFeB permanent magnet rotor locks to this field and rotates at synchronous speed. The single-turn absolute encoder provides 14-bit absolute angular position (16,384 counts per revolution) within one turn. The servo drive uses this feedback for closed-loop position control with typical servo bandwidth exceeding 1 kHz.

Advantages & Highlights:

  • Single-turn absolute — instant position knowledge at power-on, no reference run needed
  • Smooth shaft — higher torque capacity than keyed shafts, no stress risers
  • Compact medium-frame size — balances torque and footprint
  • High efficiency (>90%) at rated operating point
  • Low cogging torque (<0.5% of rated torque) for smooth low-speed operation

Applicable Industries:

  • Pick-and-place machines
  • Printing press servo axes
  • Textile spinning and weaving machines
  • Packaging and labeling equipment
  • Assembly automation
  • Medical laboratory automation

Installation Requirements:

  • Mounting: B5 flange mount (standard), 4×M6 mounting holes
  • Flange bolt torque: 12 Nm
  • Coupling: Clamping hub (shrink disc), bore Ø28 mm H7
  • Minimum clearance: 150 mm top/sides, 50 mm rear
  • Cable gland: PG16, M23 connector

Usage Precautions:

  • Do not exceed 2.4 Nm peak torque to protect magnet integrity
  • Maximum shaft radial load: 200 N, axial load: 80 N
  • Smooth shaft is incompatible with keyed couplings — use clamping type only
  • Encoder cable must use shielded twisted pair, grounded at drive end only
  • Store motor with shaft protected from impact
