In many machining processes in the industrial environment, the tools and machining equipment are subjected to extreme mechanical stresses. This is the case in metal forming for example, but also in machining processes in which extremely high forces must be applied.

Also the trend towards greater productivity and more refined products requiring the use of more complex machining techniques demands the use of state-of-the-art but also extremely rugged drive systems and automation technology.

Siemens is offering, with the 1FW3 Heavy Duty torque motor, a direct drive that fulfills follow requirements.

The powerful, permanent-magnet synchronous motor is characterized on the one hand by its high dynamic responseand precision. On the other hand, the motor is of a mechanically rugged design, enabling it to resist shock loads of 10 g without any difficulty.

The 1FW3 Heavy Duty torque motor is ideally suited to following the dynamically demanding motion profiles of higherlevel motion controllers even under harsh operating conditions.

In contrast to motor/gearbox combinations, the1FW3 Heavy Duty torque motor is characterized not only by its enhanced ruggedness, but also by its compactness.These characteristics make it particularly suitable as a main drive in servo presses.
