Do Servo Motors Have Horsepower? 2025-10-15
When discussing servo motors, one of the most common questions is whether these precision-controlled motors are measured in horsepower (HP) like traditional electric motors. The short answer is yes — servo motors can be rated in horsepower, but the way power is defined and applied in servo systems differs from that of standard AC or DC motors. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore how horsepower relates to servo motors, how to calculate it, and why torque, speed, and efficiency are equally crucial in defining servo motor performance.
