We get a lot of customers who call us and say, “I have a Fanuc A06B Motor, can you fix that?” The answer is “Yes!” But did you know that ALL Fanuc servo motors, no matter what size or purpose, have a part number that starts with A06B?

Fanuc part numbers are broken down into three portions:

  1. A06B denotes a servo motor.
  2. The middle section of numbers refers to the windings of the motor and its electrical performance.
  3. The final group of letters and digits denotes feedback and shaft specifications.

Take a look at these two Fanuc AC servo motors. At first glance they look like the same motor with different output shafts. If we inspect the part numbers however, the motor on the left is designated A06B-0128-B575, where as the motor on the right is an A06B-0128-B075.

Feedback Servo Motor Part Numbers

As if it wasn’t confusing enough there are also a lot of part numbers that start “A860” which stands for some form of “feedback.” Feedback refers to sensors and encoders, the integrated technology on the back of a servo motor or spindle motor that communicates with the drive or controller.
