Product Description:

The AKD-B00307-NCAN-0000 drive is manufactured by Kollmorgen as part of the AKD Servo Drives series. As a servo drive, it converts fixed-frequency three-phase input to a regulated output that closes the torque, velocity, and position loops for brushless motors used in automated machinery. Its role in industrial automation is to modulate current with high bandwidth so that motion axes can accelerate, hold position, and follow commanded profiles with minimal following error.

The drive accepts a three-phase supply of 240 / 480 Vac 3~, allowing it to run directly from common North American or international factory mains. Under continuous duty, its internal power section can deliver 3 Arms of nominal output current, which sets the maximum steady-state torque available to the connected motor. For short acceleration bursts, it elevates the current to 9 Arms for up to five seconds, giving additional overhead for rapid indexing or peak load events. Input apparent power is rated at 2.24 KVA, so upstream circuit protection and cabling must be sized for that demand. Command data reach the controller through an Analog interface, enabling simple ±10 V velocity or torque loops from PLC or CNC hardware without fieldbus protocol overhead.

This unit is supplied in the Standard USA customization variant, meaning labeling, fusing, and regulatory markings correspond to North American installation practices. Kollmorgen lists the hardware level as Base, which indicates the core motion package without optional safety or advanced networking. Within the AKD Servo Drive line, this 3 A model fits between very small laboratory axes and larger 12 A frames. At 2.7 kg, the housing is light enough for back-to-back mounting on moving machine members or inside slender control enclosures, while still providing sufficient aluminum mass for convection cooling.
