Available immediately from ADVANCED Motion Controls are three new additions to the FlexPro servo drive family, the FM series. Designed with compact form and power density in mind, the micro-sized drives can outperform larger-sized digital servo drives and still be integrated into tight spaces. The new FM drives are equipped with an additional interface board that makes it easy to integrate into your system with standard connectors.
FM060-5-EM and FM060-10-EM are connected to the power supply and motor using screw terminalswhile the FM060-25-EM features pre-soldered connection leads.
Features include:
- - 50.8 x 25.4 x 26 mm (2 x 1 x 1.03 in)
- - 10-55 VDC input
- - 5 A continuous, 10 A peak for FM060-5-EM
- - 10 A continuous, 20 A peak for FM060-10-EM
- - 25 A continuous, 50 A peak for FM060-25-EM
- - Incremental encoder and BISS C-mode feedback
- - Torque, velocity, and position operating modes
- - Phoenix and Molex connectors
- - Configuration and full loop tuning
- - IMPACT architecture
Projected Industries & Applications:
The small size of the FM drives makes them perfect for cobots (collaborative robots), AGVs, portable devices, lab and warehouse automation, military equipment, and any other integrated design.

Cables and wires in industrial robots and other moving machine parts are often required to withstand extreme stresses caused by torsion. Constant repetitive movements put materials under considerable strain. At the same time, operators expect components to function perfectly and reliably throughout their entire service life to avoid disruptions, outages and safety hazards.
For this reason, at HELUKABEL, we simulate intensive and continuous torsion stresses under realistic conditions with our high-tech testing equipment in Windsbach. We have several types of apparatus for doing this because some of our customers, for example those in the automotive industry, have very precise specifications for how a torsion test is carried out. The tests show that our cables and wires withstand speeds up to 1,000°/s, accelerations up to 2,000°/s² and torsion angles up to 720°. Hence, we make sure that each product always meets our customers’ high standards, and that they receive the impeccable quality they rightly expect from us as a leading supplier of cables, wires and accessories for more than 40 years.
