The AC servo version of the LEY rod features an AC servo motor instead of a DC version. The AC servo motor enables higher speed, acceleration, and pushing force, as well as a size 63 model not available in a DC version. The drivers are pulse input type, with both incremental and absolute encoder options and 17- or 18-bit resolution.

The LEY is available in a motorless type, permitting the mounting of an AC servo motor other than the standard chosen by SMC.  Shaft coupling and mounting patterns are compatible with 8 servo motor series from 5 manufacturers.  Manufacturers include Mitsubishi, Yaskawa, Sanyo Denki, Omron, and Panasonic.

The 25A- series variations are compatible with secondary battery manufacturing for electronics, automotive, and other vehicle types. Design goals include eliminating copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) materials where possible, and employing a low dew point grease that retains lubricity even in low manufacturing termpertures. Please note the copper and zinc materials are used for the motors, cables, controllers and drivers.
