VFD vs Servo Drive: Key Differences
A side-by-side comparison of VFD and servo drive motor type, feedback, dynamic response, overload rating, cost, and applications for industrial engineers.
The Siemens 1FL2204-4AF00-0HC0 is a SIMOTICS S-1FL2 servomotor with a 40 mm shaft height, rated 1.00 kW at 3,000 rpm with 3.20 Nm rated torque and 3.00 A rated current on a 400V 3AC supply. It has a 17-bit absolute singleturn encoder, a plain shaft without a holding brake, and IP54 protection, matched to the SINAMICS S200 drive.
Static torque and rated torque are the same 3.20 Nm, so this motor is sized to hold full torque at zero speed without derating, useful on vertical or clamped axes. Maximum torque of 10.00 Nm against a 3.20 Nm rated torque gives about 3x overload capacity for acceleration ramps before hitting the 9.90 A maximum current limit. The plain shaft ships without a holding brake, so a self-locking mechanical stage (ball screw) or an external brake is needed wherever the axis must hold position with power off. The singleturn absolute encoder tracks position within one revolution without a battery, so multi-turn position (e.g. on a ball screw beyond one screw pitch) is resolved through the drive's turns counting, not the encoder alone.
Compact single-axis positioning on pick-and-place units, small conveyors, and packaging machine axes paired with a SINAMICS S200 drive, in dry or light-splash environments consistent with IP54 protection without an oil seal.
