EOL hot: the procurement truth up front
The part number 1FK7034-5AK71-1DG5 sits in the Siemens 1FK7 synchronous servo family and is flagged EOL hot, so the factory channel is closed and the remaining supply lives in independent distribution — think landed, not list, because every unit now crosses a border at surplus economics rather than catalogue price.
Sourcing posture across the border
With the lifecycle stage logged as EOL hot, a quote against an RFQ is the only honest procurement channel — no dealer is replenishing from the factory, so each line item is a one-off draw from a specific surplus lot, and availability is confirmed lot by lot, never from a live stock feed. Duty changes the math on a motor like this: a synchronous servo motor typically lands under an HS heading that attracts a non-zero duty rate in most jurisdictions, so the landed cost to the dock — freight plus duty plus brokerage — is the figure the buyer should be benchmarking, not the sticker on the RFQ response.
