Servo Motors are suited for motion control applications.
Exhibiting efficiency levels up to 94%, 1FK7 series integrates encoder with DRIVE-CLiQ interface as well as high inertia design that demonstrates optimized dynamics and control properties. Mechanical decoupling of encoders from motor shaft increases ruggedness and serviceability, while integration of encoder interface electronics allows compact motor design for simplifying machine installation....
Read More »Integrated Servo Motors use intelligent communications.
SmartMotor(TM) products are available with Combitronic(TM) communication protocol, which uses CAN serial port to join up to 120 servos so that any of them may read, write, or control any other SmartMotor. To accomplish this, users are only required to tag local variable or command with colon and SmartMotor's CAN address. Communication protocol will not interfere with DeviceNet or CANopen...

Brushless DC Servo Motors integrate EtherCAT interface.
Comprised of servo motors covering 40-500 W output power range, BG series integrates communication interfaces for CANopen field bus, Profibus DP (V1), and EtherCAT. CANopen over EtherCAT (CoE) function allows servo motors to act as slaves in EtherCAT network. CoE utilizes same objects as CANopen, and standardized DSP402 objects are used for positioning, monitoring, and configuring servo drives.

Servo Motor integrates motor, encoder, controller, and amp.
With optional Combitronic technology, more than 100 Class 5 SmartMotor servos can be linked over CAN to create what programmer experiences as one large multi-axis controller. Combitronic technology allows any SmartMotor to read from, write to, and control any other SmartMotor to ensure maximum dependability with no data collision or loss. Even without Combitronic option, Class 5 SmartMotor offers...
