Product Description:
The AX8206-0100-1006 is a single-axis servo drive module produced by Beckhoff within the AX Digital Servo Drives series. The unit accepts DC power from a common supply and uses its internal IGBT bridge to generate three-phase output for synchronous or induction motors. By combining fast current regulation with integrated safety logic, it supports positioning and speed control in packaging machines, gantry loaders, and general automation cells. EtherCAT connectivity links the drive to TwinCAT software in real time, and the narrow housing allows high-density cabinet layouts.
Its power section delivers a continuous current of 6 A while remaining stable down to the minimum operating level of 1 A. During acceleration bursts, the stage can supply up to 20 A with a 400 V supply and an 8 kHz switching frequency. The PWM inverter reaches a maximum output frequency of 599 Hz, enabling high-speed spindle or linear motor operation. The reinforced DC bus tolerates up to 848 VDC, and the converter body occupies only 60 mm of panel width. The housing has an overall height of 230 mm and a depth of 192 mm. A brake terminal supplies 1 A for an external braking device, while OCT and EnDat 3 feedback ports close the position loop through digital single-cable technology. TwinSAFE circuitry on each axis provides STO and SS1 functional safety stop modes without external relays.
The shared link capacitor has a capacitance of 135 µF, helping smooth voltage fluctuations when multiple axes regenerate simultaneously. The control electronics draw 570 mA from the 24 V auxiliary supply, keeping heat dissipation low inside compact enclosures. A stop request received through the TwinSAFE channel is typically processed within 4 ms, supporting rapid safety responses in automated equipment. The module weighs 2 kg, making rail installation easier within space-constrained control cabinets. Two dedicated safe inputs per axis support independent emergency circuits and allow separate safety signals to be monitored by the drive.
