The 8LSA57.D0030D000-1, manufactured by B&R Automation, is an efficient three-phase synchronous motor fit for high-performance operations in the food, packaging, and the metalworking industries among others. Boasting a nominal speed of 3,000 RPM, this permanent-magnet servo motor is equipped with an optical measurement, single-turn encoder with EnDat 2.2 interface. Critically, this records the motor's absolute, indirect possession within one mechanical rotation. Designed as a self-cooling model, it features separate cables for power and encoder connections, an integral angled connector, and a lack of oil sealing or a holding brake. The installation is via a mounting flange which doubles as a cooling surface. The motor delivers a nominal torque of 17.5Nm and uses four pole pairs. Substantial overload capability, high controllability, and ease of service are significant aspects of this synchronous motor.
