Product Details

SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 Product Description

The Schneider Electric SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 is a high-performance Lexium series servo motor engineered for precision motion control and seamless integration into modern smart factory data architectures. Designed to operate within multi-protocol industrial networks, this servo motor supports EtherCAT, CANopen, and Modbus TCP communication standards, enabling real-time data exchange between field-level actuators and upper-level control systems including PLCs, SCADA platforms, and HMI terminals. Whether deployed in high-speed packaging lines, CNC machining centres, or automated assembly systems, the SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 delivers deterministic torque response and network-transparent position feedback that forms the backbone of connected factory data flow.

In a fully connected smart factory, the SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 sits at the intersection of field-level actuation and network-level intelligence. The data flow begins at the sensor and actuator layer: encoders embedded within the servo motor continuously generate position and velocity feedback, which is transmitted via EtherCAT to the Schneider Electric Lexium 32 or Lexium 62 servo drive. The drive processes this feedback in real time, executing motion commands issued by a Modicon M340 or Modicon M580 PLC over a high-speed EtherCAT or CANopen bus.

From the PLC, process data travels upward through an industrial Ethernet switch — such as a managed layer-2 switch supporting PROFINET or EtherNet/IP segmentation — to a SCADA gateway or edge computing node. At this layer, a Schneider Electric EcoStruxure Automation Expert server or a third-party OPC-UA gateway aggregates motion data from multiple servo axes, including companion drives such as the Lexium ILM servo motor modules and ILA integrated servo actuators, and publishes structured datasets to the plant historian or MES platform.

Simultaneously, a Magelis or Vijeo Design Air HMI terminal connected via Modbus TCP provides operators with real-time visualisation of axis position, torque load, and fault status. Alarm events — such as following error thresholds or overcurrent conditions — are captured by the drive's onboard diagnostics and forwarded through the network to the SCADA alarm management module, enabling remote diagnosis without physical site access. This closed-loop data chain, from the SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 encoder output through the Lexium drive, PLC, industrial switch, edge gateway, and SCADA dashboard, exemplifies the transparent data architecture demanded by Industry 4.0 deployments.

For multi-axis applications, the SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 can be synchronised with additional Lexium SM series motors via EtherCAT distributed clocks, achieving sub-microsecond axis synchronisation across gantry, delta robot, and pick-and-place configurations. Remote I/O modules such as the Schneider TM3 or TM5 expansion modules extend digital and analogue signal collection from peripheral sensors — including photoelectric sensors, pressure transducers, and vision system triggers — feeding additional process variables into the same network data stream. This unified data pipeline supports predictive maintenance algorithms running on edge gateways, where vibration signatures and thermal trends from the servo motor are analysed against baseline models to forecast bearing wear and schedule proactive maintenance windows.

Many industrial sites face persistent challenges with protocol fragmentation, data silos, and limited remote visibility. The SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 addresses these gaps directly through its native multi-protocol architecture. Sites running legacy CANopen motion networks can integrate this servo motor without replacing existing cabling infrastructure, while simultaneously enabling Modbus TCP connectivity for SCADA polling — eliminating the need for standalone protocol converters that introduce latency and single points of failure.

Data island problems — where servo drive data remains trapped at the field level and never reaches the MES or ERP layer — are resolved by the motor's compatibility with EcoStruxure-enabled drives that expose drive parameters as OPC-UA nodes. This allows plant-wide data aggregation platforms to subscribe to real-time torque, speed, and position data from every SM100-series axis on the network, creating a unified production transparency layer. Alarm traceability is enhanced because every fault event is timestamped at the drive level and propagated through the network with full context, enabling root-cause analysis in the SCADA historian without manual log extraction.

For remote monitoring scenarios — common in distributed manufacturing facilities or unmanned night shifts — the Modbus TCP interface allows authorised engineers to query drive status, adjust motion parameters, and acknowledge alarms from a remote engineering workstation or mobile HMI, reducing mean time to repair and minimising unplanned downtime. System expansion is equally straightforward: additional SM100-series axes can be added to an existing EtherCAT ring topology without reconfiguring the master PLC network, supporting phased capacity increases aligned with production ramp-up schedules.

Q1: What communication protocols does the SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 support, and are they compatible with third-party PLCs? The SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 supports EtherCAT (CoE, CiA 402 profile), CANopen (DS402), and Modbus TCP. The CiA 402 drive profile is an open standard, making this servo motor compatible with third-party EtherCAT and CANopen masters from Beckhoff, Omron, Mitsubishi, and other vendors, in addition to Schneider Electric Modicon PLCs.

Q2: How does the motor handle network latency in high-speed multi-axis synchronisation applications? When operating over EtherCAT, the SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 benefits from distributed clock synchronisation, which aligns all axes to a common network time reference with jitter below 1 microsecond. This deterministic timing eliminates cumulative latency errors in synchronised multi-axis motion, ensuring consistent path accuracy in applications such as electronic cam profiling and coordinated gantry control.

Q3: Can this servo motor be integrated into an existing SCADA or HMI system without replacing the drive? Yes. The Modbus TCP interface allows any SCADA platform with a standard Modbus TCP driver — including Wonderware, Ignition, WinCC, and EcoStruxure SCADA Expert — to poll drive registers for real-time status, fault codes, and process variables. No additional gateway hardware is required for basic SCADA integration, reducing commissioning time and infrastructure cost.

Q4: What does the 12-month warranty cover, and has the unit been tested before shipment? Every SM100-40-080-P0-45-S1-B1 unit supplied by NANKMOS carries a 12-month warranty covering manufacturing defects and functional failures under normal operating conditions, effective from the date of shipment. Each unit undergoes pre-shipment functional testing to verify encoder output integrity, communication interface response, and motor winding continuity before dispatch. In-stock units are available for immediate global shipping with full documentation support.
