KOLLMORGEN AKD-P01207-NCP

Product Classification: Digital AC Servo Drive — AKD Series, Profibus DP Communication

Product Introduction:
The AKD-P01207-NCP is a single-axis digital servo drive from the Kollmorgen AKD product family. It delivers 7 A continuous current at 120 VAC input with Profibus DP fieldbus communication for integration into PLC-controlled automation systems. The “NCP” suffix indicates no CANopen, Profibus only, with standard configuration.

Functional Features:

  • Profibus DP master/slave — seamless Siemens PLC integration
  • Auto-tuning — built-in motor identification and PID auto-tune
  • STO safety function —Safe Torque Off without external contactor
  • Dual-loop architecture — independent position/velocity/torque loops
  • Kollmorgen Workbench software — parameterization and diagnostics via PC
  • Regenerative braking — built-in brake chopper (external resistor optional)

Applicable Industries:

  • Siemens PLC-based packaging lines
  • Textile machinery with distributed I/O
  • Print and convert machinery
  • Material handling conveyors
  • Food and beverage processing

Model Series: AKD — Digital Servo Drive Series (7 A class)

Installation Requirements:

  • Mount on DIN rail (TS35) or panel-mount with 4× M4 screws
  • Input power cable: 2.5 mm² minimum for 120 VAC single-phase
  • Motor cable: shielded, twisted pair — max 10 m (extend with Kollmorgen extender if needed)
  • Profibus DP: 120 Ω termination resistor required at both ends of bus
  • Grounding: PE conductor ≥ 2.5 mm²

Usage Notes:

  • Do not exceed 7 A continuous — use AKD-P02407 for higher current
  • Profibus address must be unique on the network (0–126)
  • Perform auto-tuning after every motor change
  • STO circuit must be wired to safety relay or PLC safety module for SIL2 compliance
