Product details

What this 0.4 kW servo motor is built for

The Siemens 1FL6042-1AF61-0LG1 is a SIMOTICS S-1FL6 servo motor rated 0.4 kW at 3000 rpm nominal speed, delivering 1.27 Nm continuous torque and 1.9 Nm starting torque. It's a spare-part variant — same frame, same windings, same encoder as the production motor, sold as a replacement unit for field swap. Shaft height is 45 mm with a plain shaft (no keyway, tolerance N), so the coupling bore must be sized for a slip fit. No holding brake — the load holds position through the drive's holding current or an external brake.

Encoder resolution and what it means for positioning

The absolute encoder is 20-bit single-turn with 12-bit multi-turn resolution — that's 1,048,576 counts per revolution, with 4096 revolutions tracked before the multi-turn counter wraps. For a ballscrew-driven axis, this gives sub-micron position feedback without a home cycle on power-up. The 12-bit multi-turn means the motor knows its absolute position across 4096 shaft turns. If the machine has a multi-turn range exceeding that (e.g., a long conveyor or rotary table), the drive must handle the wrap or a different encoder variant is needed.

IP65 and sealing ring — where this motor runs

Degree of protection IP65 with the sealing ring fitted — the motor body and shaft seal are rated against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets. That puts it in washdown zones, food processing areas, and outdoor cabinets where a standard IP54 motor would draw moisture through the shaft seal. The sealing ring is a separate part — if the motor arrives without it installed, the IP65 rating is not effective until it's seated. Check the shaft end before commissioning.

Drive compatibility — SINAMICS V70 and V90

This motor is explicitly compatible with SINAMICS V70 and V90 servo drives. The 400 V 3 AC winding matches the V90 400 V class drive; the 20-bit encoder interface is native to both drive families — no adapter module needed. Motor cable and encoder cable are ordered separately. The V90 drive's motor connector pinout matches the S-1FL6 connector; the encoder cable uses the standard Siemens 20-bit absolute encoder pin assignment. No wiring adapter required.

No stock-holding claim; lead time depends on the order quantity and Siemens factory load.

Frequently asked questions

What drives are compatible with this motor?

This motor is compatible with SINAMICS V70 and V90 servo drives. The 400 V 3 AC winding and 20-bit absolute encoder interface are native to both drive families.

What is the encoder resolution on this motor?

The absolute encoder is 20-bit single-turn (1,048,576 counts per revolution) with 12-bit multi-turn tracking (4096 revolutions). This provides sub-micron positioning without a homing cycle.
