The Beckhoff AX5000 servo drive series sets standards in drive technology: the single- or multi-channel devices are designed for optimum functionality and cost-effectiveness. The integrated, fast control technology with a current control cycle of up to 62.5 μs supports fast and highly dynamic positioning tasks. EtherCAT as high-performance system communication enables ideal interfacing with PC-based control technology and supports coupling with other communication systems.

Future-proof OCT technology
The AX5000 servo drives support the One Cable Technology (OCT) brought onto the market by Beckhoff in 2011, which has opened up new ways for machine manufacturers to develop compact, resource-saving designs. In addition to the servomotors from the AM8000 series, the servo drives form a drive axis that meets the highest demands in terms of positioning accuracy, dynamics and also cost-efficiency.

Flexible feedback interface
A standard feature is the flexible feedback interface, which supports the connection of all common feedback systems, including resolvers, high-resolution encoders with EnDat, BISS or Hiperface. Fully digital feedback systems such as EnDat 2.2 or BISS-C can also be read via an option card.

Flexible motor interface
The operation of the AM8000 servomotor series, in combination with the digital identification plate, is very simple: All necessary data for the optimal adjustment of the current controller as well as a default setting for the speed controller are provided. The parameters for automatic cogging suppression determined in the production process of the AM8000 motors are also part of the identification plate. They are loaded immediately after starting
