BAUMULLER BM4435-FI1-012 00-03
Product Introduction:
The BAUMULLER BM4435-FI1-012 is a high-dynamic permanent magnet synchronous servo motor from the BM44xx series. It features forced air cooling via an integral fan mounted on the non-drive end, enabling continuous high-torque operation in confined spaces. The motor is equipped with a single-turn absolute encoder providing immediate position feedback upon power-up without requiring a homing routine.

Working Principle:
The motor operates on the principle of a permanent magnet synchronous machine. The rotor carries high-energy NdFeB magnets creating a constant magnetic field. The stator windings, energized by a three-phase sinusoidal current from the servo drive, generate a rotating magnetic field. The interaction between the stator field and the rotor magnets produces torque. The single-turn absolute encoder mounted on the shaft provides real-time angular position data to the drive controller, enabling closed-loop servo control with zero-position loss on power-down.
Advantages:
- Forced air cooling enables 30% higher continuous torque compared to naturally cooled equivalents
- Absolute encoder eliminates homing sequence, reducing cycle time
- High power density: 0.4 kW in a 44 mm frame
- Low rotor inertia for fast dynamic response
- IP65 protection for harsh industrial environments
