Detailed content

Technical Specifications:

  • Series: S7200
  • Frame Size: 40mm (motor stack length code indicates medium torque variant)
  • Winding Type: NAPM (standard winding configuration for balanced performance)
  • Cooling Method: Natural convection / forced air (depending on installation)
  • Feedback Device: Compatible with Kollmorgen AksIM encoders (resolver, absolute, incremental)
  • Voltage Rating: 200–480 VAC (typical for S7200 series)
  • Continuous Torque: High torque density for frame size — approximately 3.8 Nm continuous (verify with official datasheet for exact variant)
  • Peak Torque: Up to 11.4 Nm peak (3× continuous typical)
  • Rated Speed: Up to 4500 RPM
  • Insulation Class: Class H (180°C)
  • Protection Rating: IP65 / IP67 (with appropriate sealing)

Material Composition:

  • Stator Lamination: High-grade silicon steel (low core loss, high permeability)
  • Rotor Lamination: High-strength silicon steel or cobalt-iron alloy (for high-speed variants)
  • Windings: Class H copper windings with high-temperature varnish impregnation
  • Housing: Aluminum alloy (anodized for corrosion resistance) or stainless steel (for harsh environments)
  • Shaft: Hardened stainless steel (440C or equivalent)
  • Bearings: High-precision angular contact ball bearings (sealed, grease-lubricated, lifetime rated)
  • Seals: Viton or fluorocarbon rubber (for IP65/IP67)

Structural Features:

  • Compact cylindrical design with integrated mounting flange
  • Standard NEMA or IEC mounting flange (square flange type)
  • Shaft with keyway and/or clamping hub option
  • Integrated temperature sensor (PTC/PT100)
  • Cable gland entry (M20 or M25, IP68 rated)

Working Principle:
Permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) with sinusoidal back-EMF. The stator windings are driven by a servo drive (e.g., AKD series) using field-oriented control (FOC). The rotor contains high-energy rare-earth permanent magnets (NdFeB). The servo drive commutates the stator current in synchronism with rotor position (from encoder/resolver feedback) to produce precise torque and speed control.

Key Advantages:

  • High torque density — delivers maximum torque in a compact footprint
  • Low cogging torque — smooth motion at low speeds
  • Wide speed range — constant torque up to base speed, field weakening beyond
  • High efficiency — typically >90% at rated operating point
  • Low maintenance — sealed bearings, no brushes

Applicable Industries:

  • CNC machining centers
  • Packaging machinery
  • Printing presses
  • Robotics (articulated arms, SCARA)
  • Semiconductor equipment
  • Medical devices

Installation Requirements:

  • Mount on rigid, vibration-damped surface
  • Align shaft coupling within 0.05 mm TIR
  • Use flexible coupling to absorb misalignment (max 0.1 mm angular, 0.15 mm axial)
  • Torque mounting bolts to manufacturer specification (typically 6–12 Nm for M6 bolts)
  • Ensure adequate ventilation or forced air cooling for continuous operation

Usage Notes:

  • Do not exceed rated voltage or current
  • Ensure proper grounding of motor frame and drive
  • Use only Kollmorgen-approved cables and connectors
  • Avoid exposure to corrosive chemicals without protective coating
  • Store in dry environment; use desiccant if stored long-term
