Construction & Materials:
- Enclosure: Aluminum die-cast, IP20
- Connectors: M12 for power/feedback, screw terminals for I/O
- Power Stage: IGBT with active rectification
- Cooling: Forced air (internal fan, 24 VDC)
Functional Features:
- Safe Torque Off (STO) — SIL3 certified per IEC 61800-5-2
- Electronic camming with up to 256 cam profiles
- Following error window with configurable limits
- Brake control output (24 VDC, 2 A)
- Analog I/O: 2 inputs, 1 output (±10 V)
Working Principle:
Same cascaded control architecture as AKD-M series. Receives motion commands via fieldbus, executes current/velocity/position loops at 16 kHz, and drives the motor with space-vector PWM.
Advantages:
- Full safety integration — eliminates need for external safety relays in many applications
- B-Series compatibility — drop-in replacement for legacy Kollmorgen B-Series drives
- Analog I/O option simplifies integration with non-EtherCAT controllers
- Compact, panel-mountable design
Applicable Industries:
Metal forming, plastic molding, woodworking, food & beverage, textile, print, material handling
Installation Requirements:
- Mount with minimum 50 mm clearance on all sides
- Use 2.5 mm² minimum wire for power connections
- Ground PE terminal to chassis
- Provide 24 VDC auxiliary (internal fan requires 24 VDC)
Usage Notes:
- Always configure STO circuit before energizing the system
- Perform Autotune after any mechanical change
- Do not block airflow vents — overheating will trigger thermal shutdown at 100°C
