Kollmorgen AKD-P02406-NCC

Product Overview:
The AKD-P02406-NCC is a 2.4 kW (3 HP) AKD-P servo drive. The “NCC” suffix indicates EtherCAT + CANopen command interface with EnDat 2.2 single-turn absolute encoder feedback and CANopen secondary feedback path. This configuration is typically used in dual-feedback or safety-redundant architectures.

Functional Features:

  • Dual-feedback architecture — EnDat 2.2 for primary motion control, CANopen SDS for safety monitoring
  • Safe Torque Off (STO) via CANopen — SIL 3 / PL e compliant
  • Redundant position verification — cross-checks EnDat position against CANopen SDS
  • Full AKD motion library — profiles, cams, gearing, web guide, flying shear
  • EtherCAT distributed clock — multi-axis synchronization < 1 µs

Performance Parameters:

  • Positioning Accuracy: ±1 EnDat count (±0.044°)
  • Current Loop Bandwidth: 1.8 kHz
  • Velocity Loop Bandwidth: 400 Hz
  • Torque Response Time: < 5 ms (0 to 100% rated torque)

Material Composition:

  • Same as AKD-P02406-NCP
  • Additional CAN transceiver: ISO 11898-2 compliant, galvanically isolated

Structural Features:

  • Same form factor as all AKD-P drives
  • Additional CAN connector on bottom (M12 4-pin) for safety feedback
  • Front panel indicators: Power, Ready, Fault, Warning, STO Active

Working Principle:
Primary motion control uses EnDat 2.2 absolute feedback at 16 kHz. Simultaneously, a secondary CANopen SDS (Safety Drive Profile) channel monitors position and status at 100 Hz. If the secondary channel detects a discrepancy or safety violation, it commands STO via the CANopen SDO/PDO mechanism, cutting motor torque within 10 ms.

Advantages & Highlights:

  • Safety-rated architecture without external safety relay
  • Dual-feedback provides position integrity verification
  • SIL 3 / PL e achievable without additional hardware
  • Full EtherCAT performance retained

Applicable Industries:

  • Presses and stamping machines (safety-critical)
  • Robot cells with collaborative robot integration
  • Packaging machines with safety gates
  • Any application requiring functional safety per IEC 61508 / ISO 13849

Installation Requirements:

  • Connect EnDat 2.2 encoder cable (shielded, max 10m)
  • Connect CANopen safety cable (M12, shielded, max 30m)
  • Configure safety parameters in Workbench: Safe Speed, Safe Torque, STO response time
  • Perform safety validation per IEC 61508 before production use

Usage Notes:

  • The CANopen safety channel is independent — do not share cable with EtherCAT
  • Perform safety validation with a certified assessment tool
  • Update both EtherCAT and CANopen firmware simultaneously
  • Test STO response time with oscilloscope before going live
