LXM32MD18N4 — Schneider Lexium 32 Servo Drive 0.1–7 kW
The Schneider Electric Lexium 32 is a compact, high-performance servo drive covering 0.1 kW to 7 kW with single-phase 100–240 V and three-phase 200–480 V supply options, designed for machine automation applications requiring precise position, speed, and torque control of Schneider BSH and BMH series brushless AC servo motors. The Lexium 32's embedded motion controller handles single-axis positioning tasks using pre-configured motion function blocks compatible with IEC 61131-3 programming environments, enabling packaging machine builders and handling system OEMs to implement point-to-point motion profiles without a separate motion controller hardware unit. Peak torque delivery of 300% for 2 seconds handles the acceleration demands of indexing tables, pick-and-place mechanisms, and rotary cam-driven packaging axes where rapid settling to position is critical for cycle time.
The drive's STO (Safe Torque Off) safety function is certified to SIL 2 / PLd and operates without requiring a dedicated safety PLC in most machine guarding applications, reducing panel hardware cost. The integrated RS-485 Modbus and CANopen communication ports are supplemented by optional EtherCAT, PROFIBUS DP, and DeviceNet fieldbus modules, covering the full range of machine-level automation protocols used by Saudi Arabia's growing OEM manufacturing sector. The tuning wizard in SoMove software performs automatic motor identification and control loop tuning in under 3 minutes, reducing machine commissioning time for Saudi system integrators who may be configuring Lexium 32 for the first time.
In Saudi Arabia, the Lexium 32 servo system is deployed in packaging line machinery at FMCG manufacturers in Riyadh's MODON industrial zones, CNC routing machines at furniture manufacturers in Riyadh and Jeddah, and specialty machine tool applications at ARAMCO's Dhahran workshop facilities. The growth of Saudi Arabia's domestic manufacturing sector under the National Industrial Development and Logistics Programme (NIDLP) is driving OEM machine assembly locally, creating direct demand for servo drives among Saudi panel builders and machine integrators who previously imported complete machines from Europe.
Razz Middle East stocks Lexium 32 drives and BSH servo motors across common power ratings, providing integrated motor-drive packages with pre-matched parameters for faster commissioning. We offer SoMove software training, application engineering support, and SAR-denominated pricing with 4-hour RFQ response for machine builders across Saudi Arabia.

Key Features & Benefits
- Embedded single-axis motion controller with IEC 61131-3 function blocks enables position, speed, and torque control without a separate motion controller PLC, reducing panel hardware cost for single-axis machines.
- 300% peak torque for 2 seconds handles high-inertia indexing tables and pick-and-place axes, achieving fast mechanical settling times critical for high-cycle-rate packaging machinery.
- STO SIL 2 / PLd safety function eliminates external safety relay in most machine guarding applications, simplifying CE machinery directive compliance for Saudi OEM machine builders.
- SoMove auto-tune wizard identifies motor parameters and optimises control loop gains in under 3 minutes, minimising commissioning time for Saudi integrators who are first-time Lexium 32 users.
- Optional EtherCAT, PROFIBUS DP, and DeviceNet fieldbus modules cover all machine-level protocols used by Saudi packaging, food processing, and material handling machine OEMs.
- Safe Stop 1 (SS1) function provides controlled deceleration to standstill before activating STO, meeting machinery safety category stop function requirements without external timer relay hardware.
- Compact 70 mm wide book-style form factor enables side-by-side multi-axis installation in space-constrained machine cabinets, maximising drive axis density per rack unit of panel space.
Industrial Applications in Saudi Arabia
- Packaging line indexing table and form-fill-seal machine servo axes at FMCG manufacturers in Riyadh's MODON industrial zones, where Lexium 32 delivers the cycle rate and repeatability required for Saudi market packaging speeds.
- CNC router and engraving machine servo drives at furniture manufacturers and fitout contractors in Riyadh and Jeddah, where multi-axis Lexium 32 CANopen networks synchronise X, Y, and Z axes.
- Robotic pick-and-place system servo axes in Saudi food and pharmaceutical manufacturing lines, where 300% peak torque enables aggressive acceleration profiles that maximise throughput.
- Saudi Aramco workshop and maintenance facility precision machine tool servo retrofits, replacing aging DC servo systems with modern Lexium 32 drives on existing motor mounts.
- Label applicator and printing machine servo drives at packaging and label manufacturers in Dammam and Jubail industrial estates, where position accuracy below 0.01° maintains label registration quality.
- Automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS) crane and shuttle servo drives in warehousing facilities at NEOM's logistics zone, where STO safety and EtherCAT synchronisation satisfy automation system requirements.
- Assembly line torque-controlled screwdriving machine servo drives at Saudi electronics and automotive component manufacturers, where torque accuracy ensures fastener preload consistency.
