The Siemens 1FK7042-2AK71-1RH0 SIMOTICS S Synchronous Motor is a compact permanent-magnet servo motor in the SIMOTICS S-1FK7 family. It has a rated power of 0.94 kW, a rated speed of 6,000 rpm and a static torque of 3 Nm under the 100 K temperature-rise condition. The motor uses natural cooling and an IM B5 mounting arrangement, with alternative IM V1 and IM V3 installation positions.
This configuration combines an absolute encoder with a DRIVE-CLiQ interface, a smooth shaft and an integrated holding brake. The encoder supplies position feedback for closed-loop motion control, while the brake helps hold the shaft when engaged within its specified operating limits. These features make the motor suitable for servo-driven machine axes that require controlled rotation and repeatable positioning.
The 1FK7042-2AK71-1RH0 operates with a 600 V DC-link drive system and has an IP64 degree of protection. When integrating it into a machine, the drive, encoder connection, brake-control circuit and mechanical coupling must match the motor’s configuration.

The 1FK7042-2AK71-1RH0 operates through the interaction between the stator’s controlled magnetic field and the permanent magnets in the rotor. A compatible servo drive regulates current in the stator windings, producing torque and controlled shaft rotation.
The absolute encoder measures the rotor’s position and transmits feedback through the DRIVE-CLiQ interface. The drive compares the feedback with the commanded motion value and adjusts motor current to achieve the requested position, speed or torque. This closed-loop process supports coordinated movement and repeatable positioning as mechanical loads change.
The integrated permanent-magnet holding brake performs a separate shaft-holding function. When the brake is engaged, it helps hold the shaft within its rated holding torque. Brake operation must follow the drive and machine control sequence; the holding brake should not be assumed to replace a separately required safety braking system.
During commissioning, the motor identification, encoder communication, brake wiring and drive parameters must be verified together. Incorrect feedback configuration or brake sequencing can prevent the motor from operating as intended.
The 1FK7042-2AK71-1RH0 acts as the electromechanical actuator in a closed-loop motion-control system. The controller generates motion commands, the servo drive supplies regulated current, and encoder feedback allows the drive to correct the motor’s response.

The motor uses an AM20DQI absolute encoder with 20-bit single-turn and 12-bit multiturn resolution. Its DRIVE-CLiQ interface supplies position feedback to a compatible Siemens drive.
The permanent-magnet brake helps hold the motor shaft when engaged, with a specified holding torque of 4.0 Nm. Its suitability for a particular load depends on the machine design and operating conditions; it should not automatically be treated as a safety-rated stopping device.
The drive must support the motor’s electrical ratings, 600 V DC-link configuration and DRIVE-CLiQ feedback arrangement. The brake-control connection and motor parameters must also be configured correctly.
Check the DRIVE-CLiQ cable and connectors, encoder recognition, motor identification and drive parameterization. Also verify the mechanical coupling and the controller’s axis configuration before replacing the motor.
