7.3 
Bearings 
Selecting the bearing 
1FW6 torque motors are built-in motors for direct rotary or swivel axes. To set up a complete 
drive unit, a bearing between the stator and rotor is required in addition to the phase-angle 
encoder system.  
Your choice of bearing is governed by the following factors: 
●  Geometric requirements (internal and external diameter) 
●  Speed 
●  Load (magnitude, direction) 
●  Rigidity (accuracy, pretension) 
●  Service life 
The bearing is not included in the scope of supply. 
 
 
WARNING 
 
Bearing currents and static charging of the rotor: 
Depending on the design and properties of the bearing, the rotor may become statically 
charged. 
Measures must be taken to prevent this (e.g. insulated bearing design or grounding). 
 
 
 
 
Note 
Radial forces are generated between the stator and rotor. These must be taken into account 
when you select the bearing (see also "Motor assembly)".
