Servomotors

May 24, 2010

Siemens has added forced-ventilated and water-cooled styles to its line of convection air-cooled IFT7 servomotors for such motion control applications as machine tool CNC interpolation and production machine web handling.

According to the company, the servomotors help shorten machine cycle times with their high dynamic response, gained through a 30 percent shorter design and 4x overload capacity compared to 3x on the previous family of servos.

The new, rigid, vibration-insulated encoder mounting allows users to exchange the encoder in the field in less than five minutes, without encoder alignment, the manufacturer states.
