Product Introduction
The REXROTH is a compact high-speed servo built for space-restricted automation cells, pairing with HMD dual-axis and DKC standalone servo drives coordinated by CML40 motion PLCs. Its multiturn Hiperface encoder eliminates mandatory machine homing after every power cycle.This unit differs from UG1 braked variants by omitting the integrated 1 Nm 24 V holding brake, cutting unit weight by 0.2 kg and removing brake coil wiring overhead. Field OEM data lists its rated MTBF at 47,000 operating hours under continuous 9000 rpm cyclic light-load operation at 40 °C cabinet ambient.

Quality Control Process (Engineer’s Perspective)
- Incoming Verification: Cross-reference serial number against Rexroth OEM R911308683 part database; inspect shaft protective red cap for intact factory seal, check connector housing for cracks, encoder rear cover for scratches, and terminal pins for oxidation. Photograph rotatable connector side exit orientation for field installation reference.
- Live Functional Test: Mount motor to low-inertia dynamometer bench paired with HMD01.1N dual-axis drive simulator; run 24 hour cyclic 0–9000 rpm speed ramp and 0–4 Nm overload load profiles. Use a Fluke 115 signal logger to track three-phase winding current balance and absolute encoder position retention over power cycles.
- Electrical Parameter Test: 500 V Megger insulation test between stator windings and motor chassis ground (pass threshold >10 MΩ); verify three-phase winding resistance imbalance stays below 2% at 25 °C ambient temperature.
- Encoder & Connector Verification: Establish full Hiperface bidirectional communication handshake with servo drive firmware; test full 240° connector housing rotation without pin strain or signal dropout; log absolute position drift after 12 hour power-off retention test.
- Final QC & Packaging: Retain factory plastic shaft and connector dust caps; seal unit in anti-static PE foam lined bag, apply dated QC Pass label listing torque linearity, encoder position error, and insulation resistance test metrics before rigid carton shipping.
Replacement Pitfall Guide
❗ UG0 / UG1 Brake Variant Mismatch Risk: UG0 units have no integrated holding brake coil. Swapping this motor into a vertical axis originally fitted with UG1 braked hardware removes load lock functionality and triggers persistent brake circuit open fault codes on the paired servo drive. Always confirm axis orientation (horizontal only for UG0) before replacement.❗ Connector Rotation Cable Interference Risk: The U-type 240° rotatable side connector must be pre-positioned to avoid cabinet structural interference. Fixed-side non-rotatable motor variants require full cable harness rework if routing paths conflict post-swap. Photograph original cable bend radius before disconnecting wiring.❗ Plain Shaft Seal Damage Hazard: Removing the factory red plastic shaft cap prior to coupling installation scratches the integral IP65 contact seal. Damaged seals allow cleanroom particulate ingress that accelerates bearing wear and creates periodic positioning jitter within 3,000 operating hours.❗ Drive Winding Parameter Mismatch Risk: Winding code 0900 has unique resistance and inductance values. Installing this motor into drives loaded with MSK030C alternate winding parameter sets creates unstable current loops, audible stator vibration, and overcurrent trips during fast acceleration to 9000 rpm.❗ ESD Encoder Circuit Damage: The rear Hiperface optical encoder ASIC has low electrostatic discharge tolerance. Always rest the unit on a grounded anti-static mat during connector disconnection or encoder housing inspection, especially in low-humidity cleanroom production environments.Keep these in mind and you’ll cut 90% of rework time.
