What this 1.3 kW Lexium 18 servo motor delivers
The BEH18MM1313MA6D is a 1.3 kW servo motor from the Lexium 18 range, spinning 1500 rpm nominal at 380 V three-phase. Nominal torque sits at 8.34 Nm, but peak stall torque hits 25.02 Nm — that's a 3x overload margin for acceleration through a cycle. Feedback comes from a 17-bit magnetic multi-turn encoder — absolute position on power-up, no homing sequence needed. The magnetic sensing handles vibration better than an optical encoder in a washdown environment.
Mounting and environment — IP67, Asian flange, no second shaft
IP67 rating means the motor body and connector seal against hose-directed water and dust ingress — it's at home on a packaging line or a food-grade conveyor that gets washed down. Air-cooled, so keep the ambient airflow clear. Electrical connection is via two connectors (male/female) — the power and feedback cables plug in. Maximum radial force on the shaft is 686 N, axial force 196 N; stay within those limits to avoid bearing damage.
Volume pricing and lead time confirmed at RFQ. The 17-bit magnetic encoder and IP67 make it a common drop-in for food, beverage, and packaging machinery OEMs.
