Integrated servo motor
Beckhoff Automation AMP8000
Servo motor with the drive built into the motor housing, fed over a single EtherCAT P hybrid cable so axes can be placed on the machine without a control cabinet.

Typical applications
Alternatives that meet or exceed these figures
Engineers often come to us with a Beckhoff Automation part number and leave with an alternative that is easier to source, quicker to deliver or a better fit for the machine. These 3 series from our supply network are the closest match on published figures.
Kinco's current-generation AC servo motor line, matched to the JD2 and FD5P PRO drives. Small-inertia 40-80 mm frames run at 3000 rpm on 220 V; large-inertia 130 and 180 mm frames are 1500 rpm machines reaching 47.8 Nm rated and 7.5 kW, with 23-bit multi-turn absolute encoders as standard.

Figures are the highest published for each series and are not always measured the same way. A higher figure is not automatically a better choice: mounting, duty cycle, feedback, connectors and approvals matter too. An engineer will check the fit against your application before recommending anything.
