Moog Class 5 SmartMotor

Class 5 SmartMotor | Integrated Servo Motor (NEMA 23 & 34)

Class 5 SmartMotor™ delivers the core benefits of SmartMotor—integrated motor, amplifier, controller, encoder, and I/O—with excellent price‑performance. Available in NEMA 23 and 34 frames and multiple connector styles, Class 5 is a proven platform for single‑ and multi‑axis machines. This highly programmable servo motor integrates all components in a compact package. It supports fieldbus communications and optional Combitronic™ technology for creating a parallel-processing network of SmartMotors. Each D-style SmartMotor™ has RS-232 communications, 7 channels of 5V TTL I/O, optional 24 VDC isolated I/O, encoder output, and more.

Key capabilities

  • Programmable integrated motion control (no separate drive/controller required)
  • Flexible serial/fieldbus communications (model‑specific)
  • Combitronic™ option for SmartMotor‑to‑SmartMotor resource sharing
  • Optional brake and drive‑enable configurations

Connector styles

  • D‑Style: D‑sub connectors; popular for panel/enclosure installations
  • M‑Style: metric circular connectors; IP options for harsher environments
  • S‑Style: sloped cap, metric connectors; IP‑protected for splash/washdown

Engineers often start with these D‑Style part numbers. Tell us your torque, speed, and load—our team will size the best fit and accessories.

SM23165D / SM23165DT

NEMA 23 size with integrated motor, controls, amp, encoder and coms and now in a higher torque motor. Higher torque windings in the same footprint.

SM23375D / SM23375DT

NEMA 23 size SmartMotor™ with a higher speed, integrated motor, controller, amplifier, encoder and communications bus. Step up torque/speed profiles.

SM34165D / SM34165DT

NEMA 34 size SmartMotor™ with integrated motor, controller, amplifier, encoder and communications bus. Higher power for heavier loads.

FAQs

A: Class 5 emphasizes price‑performance with integrated control and serial/fieldbus options. Class 6 adds Industrial Ethernet choices and multi‑turn absolute encoder technology for deterministic, networked motion.

A: D‑Style suits protected enclosures and standard panel wiring. M‑Style introduces metric circular connectors with IP options for harsher environments. S‑Style adds a sloped cap design with IP protection for splash/washdown.

A: Yes. We can assist you in choosing high performance, OEM, and right‑angle gearheads pre‑mounted to your SmartMotor, including hardware and gauges.
