Servo motors with larger external mass inertias

The AM8500 servo motor series has four sizes and three lengths with standstill torques from 1.38 to 29 Nm

The AM8500 series of servo motors are suitable for applications with larger external mass inertias like CNC applications in machine tools and woodworking machine. The AM8500 series has four sizes and three lengths with standstill torques from 1.38 to 29 Nm. It also has the One Cable Technology (OCT), which combines power and feedback systems into one motor cable. The increased rotor moment of inertia provides further benefits for applications with demands for large loads and high synchronism. Due to the modified rotor geometry, the moment of inertia is increased, depending on the length, by 100 to 300%.
