Often used for small automation applications, such as pick-and-place machines, these servomotors deliver lots of power in a small package. With accurate positioning and fine motor control, they create rotary motion based on signals from a drive (sold separately). The commands for speed and positioning are the same as those used for stepper motors, so you can upgrade your system without the hassle of reprogramming it. As these servomotors move, their encoder relays the shaft’s distance, direction, and speed back to the drive. The drive increases your system’s efficiency by taking the electrical signal from the encoder and dynamically adapting the motor’s movements, also accounting for inconsistent loads and unexpected forces.

Good for high speeds with fast accelerations, these servomotors are often used in automated assembly, material handling, and packaging applications. These motors require a low amount of force to stop or start, commonly referred to as low inertia, so they respond to position commands quickly and can rapidly accelerate and decelerate.

Pair a servomotor and drive (sold separately) for accurate speed and position control. The absolute encoder built into the motor knows the exact position of the shaft at startup and relays distance, direction, and speed back to the drive. Based on this feedback, the drive dynamically adapts the motor’s movements and increases system efficiency. A brake resistor protects the drive from regenerated electricity as the motor slows or stops.

Combine the high torque at low speeds that traditional stepper motors are known for with the greater torque performance and positioning reliability of a servomotor. They create rotary motion based on signals from a drive (sold separately). As these servomotors move, their encoder relays the shaft’s distance, direction, and speed back to the drive. The drive increases your system’s efficiency by taking the electrical signal from the encoder and dynamically adapting the motor’s movements, also accounting for inconsistent loads and unexpected forces.

These speed-control motors combine a variable-frequency drive and motor into one, saving space in your control panel and reducing the amount of wiring required. Bolt them directly to gearboxes, pumps, and other machinery, or use the welded base to mount them to a surface. You can program the drive to start, stop, change speed, and reverse direction based on inputs from a PLC or sensor. These motors are often used to start or stop a conveyor based on PLC commands or vary the speed of a fan to maintain a room’s temperature.

The shaft is keyed and comes with key stock. These motors are rated for continuous duty, so they'll run equipment that never turns off. All have automatic overload protection, which turns motors off if they become overheated and restarts them once they’ve cooled.

An IE5 efficiency rating means these motors and drives are rated for the highest efficiency available. From partial to full output, they'll use less electricity than motors with other ratings.

Program these motors in a number of ways. You can download the free manufacturer software to your computer and connect to the motor via Bluetooth, or you can use a PC Connection Cord to connect your motor directly to your computer's USB port. The software allows you to control or monitor the motor in real time. To integrate them into larger control systems, these motors can be programmed using Modbus-RTU and BACnet protocols.
