What the EOL flag means at this order code
The 1FK7060-5AF71-1FU5-Z Z=B13+G23+H34: The lifecycle field for this order code reads EOL_HOT (cite:), which on Siemens motion-control lines generally means the catalogue variant is on its way out — orders can still clear, but new-build spares need to be locked in while stock holds. For a plant that built its servo axis around this exact option-code string, that window is the planning trigger for a substitution review or a freeze-purchase of the remaining drives.
Mechanical envelope and what a 4.54 kg servo tells you
This is a synchronous servo motor in the Siemens 1FK7 family (cite:), used on SIMODRIVE / SINAMICS axes where position-hold at zero speed is part of the duty cycle.
