What buyers sourcing this motor need to know first
The 1FK7060-5AF71-1TG3: It pairs with a SINAMICS S120 drive on the same motion bus and feeds back position through a resolver or absolute encoder, which is what the -1TG3 suffix variant encodes for the 1FK7060 frame size — a replacement swap must preserve the encoder code or the drive's auto-configuration will reject the motor on first power-up.
Lifecycle read and what EOL/hot-runoff means for the BOM
The EOL/hot-runoff status on the 1FK7060-5AF71-1TG3 rules out an open-ended reorder against the BOM — production lots have closed and any new units now move through independent distribution channels with lot-specific availability confirmed at quote time, not from a factory schedule. For a line-down spare, that means the right posture is to quote against an RFQ with the encoder suffix locked and the serial range accepted on the declaration pack — Siemens does not publish an official successor in this code slot, so the BOM line must either commit to surplus stock or accept a panel-side encoder change.
