What an AC servo motor is
An AC servo motor is a permanent-magnet synchronous motor designed for closed-loop control of position, speed and torque. A wound stator is driven by a servo drive with sinusoidal three-phase current, while magnets on the rotor follow the rotating field. A high-resolution encoder or resolver on the shaft feeds position back to the drive, which adjusts current many thousands of times a second. The result is precise, dynamic motion with high peak torque, typically about three times the continuous rating for short periods.
When engineers choose an AC servo motor
Choose an AC servo for machine axes needing fast, accurate motion under varying loads, such as packaging, robotics, machine tools and printing. Compared with steppers, servos keep torque at high speed and cannot silently lose position. The trade-offs are cost and set-up: a servo needs a matched drive, feedback and tuning. For simple, low-speed indexing with a steady load, a stepper may be cheaper. For very low speeds and high torque, a gearbox or direct-drive motor may be needed.
How to specify the Allient HeiMotion Dynamic servo motors
Send these with your enquiry and an engineer can confirm the right HeiMotion Dynamic servo motors variant or an equivalent:
- Continuous and peak torque (Nm)
- Rated and maximum speed (rpm)
- Load inertia and inertia ratio
- Supply voltage: 230 V single-phase or 400 V three-phase
- Feedback: incremental or absolute encoder, resolution (bits)
- Holding brake, IP code and shaft options
- Flange size and mounting (mm)
Common mistakes to avoid
- Sizing on peak torque without checking RMS torque over the cycle
- Ignoring load-to-motor inertia ratio, which makes tuning hard
- Forgetting the brake is for holding, not dynamic stopping
- Using a motor and drive pair that the supplier has not matched
Allient HeiMotion Dynamic servo motors: frequently asked questions
What is the Allient HeiMotion Dynamic servo motors?
Permanent-magnet synchronous servo motors in 60 to 190 mm flange sizes, rated torque 1.0–66.5 Nm and 315 W to 13.9 kW, 24–560 V DC bus and 2,000–6,000 rpm rated speeds. Published series figures include voltage 560 V, rated torque 1 Nm, rated torque 66.5 Nm, power 315 W. It is made by Allient Inc.; Specify Motion can help source it or propose an equivalent.
Who makes the Allient HeiMotion Dynamic servo motors?
The Allient HeiMotion Dynamic servo motors is made by Allient (Allient Inc.) and is listed here for engineers comparing options. Specify Motion is not affiliated with Allient Inc.; brand names are used only to identify the product.
What is the voltage of the Allient HeiMotion Dynamic servo motors?
The published series maximum voltage is 560 V. Individual models and sizes in the HeiMotion Dynamic servo motors range vary, so check the exact variant against your duty cycle, mounting and environment, or ask our engineers to confirm the right size for you.
Is there an alternative to the Allient HeiMotion Dynamic servo motors?
Yes. Our engineers can propose an equivalent built around your load, speed and environment. An engineer confirms the fit against your application before recommending anything.
What is the inertia ratio in servo sizing?
The inertia ratio compares the load inertia reflected to the motor shaft with the motor's rotor inertia. High ratios make the axis harder to tune and slower to settle. Many engineers aim for below about 10:1, and lower for highly dynamic axes, using a gearbox to reduce reflected inertia where needed.
Do AC servo motors need an absolute encoder?
Not always. Incremental encoders need a homing routine after power-up, which is acceptable on many machines. Absolute encoders know their position at power-on, avoiding homing, which saves time and suits robots and multi-axis machines. Multi-turn absolute encoders track turns even when power is off.
