Technical Specifications
Main Features and Advantages
The BECKHOFF AM8033-1E20-0000 is packed with features that provide significant advantages in modern machine building. Its most notable feature is the groundbreaking One Cable Technology (OCT). This innovation integrates the power conductors and the feedback system signals into a single cable, eliminating the need for a separate motor feedback cable. This drastically reduces cabling complexity and cost, simplifies wiring diagrams, and saves space in the control cabinet and cable tracks. OCT is a major enabler for streamlined machine design and faster assembly.
High Dynamics and Precision: The AM8033-1E20-0000 motor is optimized for highly dynamic motion. Its low rotor inertia allows for rapid acceleration and deceleration, leading to faster machine cycle times. The integrated BiSS-C encoder provides a high-resolution absolute feedback signal, ensuring exceptional positioning accuracy and repeatability, which is essential for applications like robotics and precision machining.
Robust and Reliable Design: The motor’s robust construction with a protection class of IP65 makes it suitable for use in harsh industrial environments where dust, moisture, and cutting fluids may be present. The durable design, combined with Beckhoff’s high-quality manufacturing, ensures long-term reliability and a high degree of uptime. The seamless integration with the Beckhoff TwinCAT and AX5000 platforms allows for quick commissioning and easy diagnostics, with all motor parameters and feedback data available in a centralized software environment. This unified approach reduces engineering effort and simplifies maintenance throughout the machine’s lifecycle.
