8LSA37.DA060S000-3 by B & R Automation

The 8LSA37.DA060S000-3 is a three-phase synchronous motor manufactured by B&R Automation for the 8LS Synchronous Motors series. It serves as a compact drive element in industrial automation lines where coordinated speed control and precise positioning are required, such as pick-and-place modules, indexing tables, or light machining spindles. The unit reaches a rated speed of 6000 rpm, allowing fast cycle execution when paired with matching inverters.

Its mounting interface follows a 91.3 mm flange dimension, so it can be fastened directly to standardized machine frames or adapter plates. Feedback is supplied by an Inductive EnDat encoder that supports absolute position reporting, and communication conforms to EnDat 2.2 for digital transmission and diagnostic data monitoring. Within that protocol, the encoder resolution is 19/0 bits for single-turn and multi-turn counts, enabling fine velocity loops. A length code 7 housing keeps overall depth moderate while still accommodating the winding stack used in the 8LSA configuration. Connection hardware uses a single plug-in connector, and the product is revision 3.

Thermal management relies on self-cooling by free air circulation, removing the need for external fans or liquid jackets. Power and encoder conductors exit in a single-cable solution, minimizing cabinet entries and reducing installation time in compact machines. No brake is integrated, so the absence of a holding brake means position retention must be handled by the drive or external mechanics. The rotor has a smooth shaft, which is suitable for clamp or collet couplings. There is no oil seal, which matches the A designation and limits use in fluid-rich zones. All mechanical loads are transmitted through the mounting flange, and the standard 8LSA build avoids additional bearing reinforcement to keep inertia low.
