QUICK DECISION
For a BT40 installation with water-cooled and 12,000 rpm rated. Mounting requirements: Ø125 mm · 618 mm overall · 172 mm clamp. Compare these dimensions with the machine before choosing.
The assembly is 618 mm overall and weighs 35 kg. Encoder signals are optional: 1 Vpp sine or TTL square. Confirm what is supplied rather than assuming an encoder is included.
The BT30 GDL120 uses different tooling, a shorter envelope and a different operating point.
