Precise and dynamic press drive solutions for the highest requirements.

DESCH Servox® servo drives are engineered to deliver precision, dynamic performance, and efficient motion control in demanding industrial applications. Designed for high-speed, high-accuracy operation, they provide the responsiveness and reliability required to optimize productivity and maintain consistent process quality.

With advanced drive technology, robust construction, and the flexibility to be tailored to specific application requirements, Servox® servo drives support long-term performance while helping reduce operating costs. Backed by proven DESCH engineering, they are ideally suited for the following industries and applications:

Punching Machines

Eccentric Presses

Knuckle-Joint Presses

Servo Presses

Servox® DS

The Servox® DS is a multi-motor servo drive using a planetary gearbox to transmit the output torque. Designed for applications requiring high torque and flexible drive configuration, the DS can be combined with two servo motors and adapted to individual motor, speed and transmission requirements. The modular configuration provides high power density in a compact package and supports demanding press applications.

  • Flexible combination of gear ratio and motor configuration
  • No additional holding brake required
  • Suitable for oscillating stroke operation
Torque25 kNm to 2,500 kNm
Gear Ratio4 – 48

Servox® E

The Servox® E is a standard single-motor servo drive designed for small to medium press forces. A hydraulically released safety brake is installed on the gearbox input shaft, while the planetary gearbox provides reliable power transmission to the machine drive shaft. Its compact configuration makes it suitable for new press installations as well as press retrofits.

  • Single-servo-motor configuration
  • Hydraulically released safety brake integrated on the gearbox input shaft
  • Low mass moment of inertia for shorter cycle times
Torque10 kNm to 250 kNm
Gear Ratio4 – 6
Special DesignUp to 10

Servox® PS

The Servox® PS is a multi-motor servo drive that combines a planetary gearbox with up to five servo motors. The flexible combination of motor configuration and gear ratio allows the drive to be adapted to different torque, speed and press requirements. Its compact, high-power-density design provides an efficient solution for demanding press applications.

  • Up to five servo motors
  • Flexible combination of motor configuration and gear ratio
  • Low mass moment of inertia for shorter cycle times
Torque40 kNm to 2,000 kNm
Gear Ratio4 – 6

Servox® QS

The Servox® QS combines a planetary gearbox with up to four servo motors to provide a highly flexible solution for demanding press applications. The combination of multiple motors and selectable gear ratios allows the drive to be configured to the required output torque, speed and application conditions.

  • No additional holding brake required
  • Identical connection dimensions for gear ratios 4 and 6
  • Up to four servo motors
Torque40 kNm to 2,000 kNm
Gear Ratio4 – 65

Servox® SP

The Servox® SP features a modified planetary gearbox designed for medium gear ratios in a compact coaxial arrangement. With gear ratios from 12 to 20, the SP can enable the use of smaller, faster-running servo motors and more cost-effective control systems while maintaining the torque required for demanding press applications.

  • Gear ratios from 12 to 20
  • Supports the use of smaller servo motors
  • Can reduce control and regulation system costs
Torque10 kNm to 150 kNm
Gear Ratio12 – 20

Servox® TS

The Servox® TS is a multi-motor servo drive with three servo motors driving through a planetary gearbox. The combination of three motors and a broad gear-ratio range provides flexibility for configuring the drive to the required output torque and speed. It is designed for demanding punching, eccentric, knuckle-joint and servo press applications.

  • Three-servo-motor configuration
  • No additional holding brake required
  • Identical connection dimensions for gear ratios 4 and 6
Torque40 kNm to 2,000 kNm
Gear Ratio 4 – 65

Servox® Z

The Servox® Z is a two-stage planetary servo drive designed for high gear ratios and high torque requirements. Based on the Servox® E concept, a second planetary gear stage is added to the output of the first stage, enabling a compact coaxial configuration with gear ratios of up to 65 and torque capacity of up to 2,500 kNm.

  • Two-stage planetary gearbox design
  • High gear ratios in a compact coaxial configuration
  • Low mass moment of inertia supports shorter cycle times
Torque40 kNm to 2,000 kNm
Gear Ratio4 – 65

Choosing The Right Drive For The Job

There’s a lot to consider when choosing the right DESCH product for your specific application.

Press Requirements

The required output torque and press dynamics determine the appropriate drive configuration.

Key factors to assess include:

  • Required output torque
  • Press speed and cycle time
  • Peak and alternating loads

Drive Configuration

Servox® drives are available with different motor and gearbox configurations.

When evaluating, consider:

  • Single- or multi-motor operation
  • Number of servo motors required
  • Available installation space

Application & Integration

The right drive must integrate reliably with the complete press system.

Key considerations include:

  • New-build or retrofit installation
  • Mechanical connection requirements
  • Control and motor compatibility

Maintain For Longevity

While DESCH products are engineered for long-term performance, appropriate maintenance helps protect reliability, extend service life, and prevent avoidable downtime.

  • Install and commission the drive according to the manufacturer’s instructions
  • Follow the specified lubrication and inspection intervals
  • Monitor operating conditions, temperature, noise and vibration
  • Inspect mechanical connections and components regularly
