Model Code Breakdown:

  • M — AKM Servo Motor (M-Series designation)
  • 60 — 60mm Stator Frame Size (Outer Diameter)
  • 05 — Stack Length Code 5 (Medium — balanced torque/speed)

Detailed content

Product Overview:
The M-605-D-B1-B3 is a high-performance AKM servo motor featuring a hollow shaft with clamping hub — enabling direct drive of rotary tables, encoders, and pulleys without coupling backlash. The D-winding delivers maximum torque in the 60mm frame class, while the integrated brake provides fail-safe load holding.

Structural Features:

  • Hollow Shaft 25mm Bore: Direct-mount rotary tables, encoders, or timing pulleys — zero backlash
  • Keyless Clamping Hub (B3): 6–18mm clamp range — eliminates keyway stress concentration
  • Slotless Stator: Zero cogging torque — enables smooth rotation at 0.001 RPM
  • Ironless Rotor: Ultra-low inertia — acceleration to 3000 RPM in <50ms
  • Preloaded Angular Contact Bearings: L10 life >20,000 hours at rated load

Working Principle:
Three-phase brushless DC motor. Drive commutates current through stator windings based on encoder feedback, creating a rotating magnetic field that drives the ironless rotor. Hollow shaft transmits torque directly to attached load via clamping hub.

Advantages:

  • Hollow shaft + clamping hub = zero-backlash direct drive — eliminates coupling, keyway, and backlash errors
  • D-winding delivers highest torque in 60mm frame — 4.5 Nm continuous
  • Slotless construction = zero cogging — smoothest motion in class
  • 8 Nm brake holds heavy vertical loads on power failure
  • IP65 — washdown and coolant-splash proof

Applicable Industries:
Rotary Tables (4th/5th axis CNC), Direct-Drive Gimbals, Semiconductor Wafer Stages, Print Cylinder Drives, Camera Turrets, Large Valve Actuators, Robotic Joint Axes

Installation Requirements:

  • Mount with 4× M6 screws on 72mm bolt circle (60mm frame)
  • Hollow shaft: insert load, tighten clamping hub to 12 Nm using torque wrench
  • Maximum radial load: 400N; maximum axial load: 150N
  • Brake requires dedicated 24V DC supply — minimum 1A capacity
  • Cable bend radius: minimum 5× cable diameter (~40mm)

Usage Notes:

  • Clamping hub torque is critical: Under-tightening causes slippage and position error; over-tightening deforms hollow shaft — use 12 Nm torque wrench exclusively
  • Brake must be energized before any rotation — de-energizing under load damages brake friction surfaces
  • Recommended drive: AKD-T01207-ICA (7A continuous matches motor current) or AKD-B02407-NBS (24A peak for fast acceleration)
  • Do not press-fit onto shaft — use clamping hub only (B3 configuration)
  • Hollow shaft bore must remain clean — debris causes clamping hub imbalance
