Working Principle:
Same cascade control architecture as AKD-B series. The “M” configuration adds an integrated motion controller (PLC-like) on the drive, enabling standalone operation without an external controller. The drive executes motion profiles (trapezoidal, S-curve) internally. The multi-turn absolute encoder (MCE) provides position data including absolute position across power cycles (no homing required). EtherCAT enables coordination with other axes in a multi-axis system.

Key Advantages:

• Built-in motion controller — eliminates need for separate PLC for single-axis applications
• Multi-turn absolute — position retained across power cycles
• Compact size — smallest in AKD family for 300W class
• Cost-optimized — ideal for machine builders needing high performance at lower cost
• EtherCAT support — seamless integration into EtherCAT motion systems

Applicable Industries:

• Small CNC machines
• Pick-and-place machines
• Conveyor systems
• Labeling machines
• Textile machines (single axis)
• Medical devices

Installation Requirements:

• Same as AKD-B series, with reduced space requirements
• Ensure 50 mm clearance minimum for ventilation
• Multi-turn encoder cable: use shielded twisted pair, max 50 m (EnDat); BiSS up to 10 m
• Ground all shields at drive end only

Usage Notes:

• Use Kollmorgen WorkBench for configuration and tuning
• Built-in I/O can be mapped via EtherCAT or locally via DIP switches/software
• Multi-turn encoder battery: verify battery life (typically 10+ years for EnDat; no battery for BiSS)
• Do not mix motor feedback types — MCE drive requires MCE-compatible encoder
