...If so what would the highest figure be whilst running a 1kw (single or 3 phase) motor under normal conditions also would using a 10:1 Gearbox change that efficiency level?

Yes, it is possible to achieve over 90% efficiency from a servo motor. In fact, some servo motors have been shown to have efficiencies of up to 95%. However, the exact efficiency of a servo motor will depend on various factors such as the motor design, operating conditions, and load requirements.
The efficiency of a servo motor can be affected by several factors including the motor design, operating voltage, temperature, load requirements, and frictional losses. In general, a well-designed servo motor with low friction and optimized operating conditions will have higher efficiency.
The efficiency of a servo motor can be improved by using high-quality materials in the motor design, reducing friction through proper lubrication and precise manufacturing, and optimizing operating conditions such as voltage and temperature. Additionally, regular maintenance and proper use of the servo motor can also help improve its efficiency.
Yes, the efficiency of a servo motor can be accurately measured using various techniques such as dynamometer testing, power loss analysis, and thermal imaging. These methods can provide accurate and detailed information about the efficiency of a servo motor under different operating conditions.
While it is possible to achieve high efficiency in a servo motor, there are some limitations that may affect its efficiency. These include the design and construction of the motor, the type of load it is driving, and the operating conditions. Additionally, external factors such as power supply quality and control system performance can also impact the efficiency of a servo motor.
