End-of-life phase — what that means for the BOM line
The 1FK7042-5AF71-1FA5: Servo motors in this class are the actuator side of a closed-loop drive system — paired with a SINAMICS or similar servo controller, the resolver or encoder feedback closes position and velocity loops that a VFD alone cannot hold to the tolerance a packaging, indexing, or pick-and-place axis demands.
