The Schneider Electric BCH16HD04330A5C is part of the “Easy” line, designed to provide a cost-effective yet robust solution for simple motion control. This motor features a Heavy Inertia design, which provides a higher resistance to external torque disturbances, making it easier to tune for machines with varying loads or mechanical play.
It is equipped with a 2500 PPR (Pulses Per Revolution) incremental encoder and a parallel keyed shaft for secure mechanical coupling. With an IP65 degree of protection for the motor body and shaft, it is well-suited for industrial environments where dust or moisture may be present. Note that this specific model is the “without brake” version, intended for horizontal axes or applications where a vertical fail-safe is not required.
