Product Description:

The AKD-M00307-M1EC-0000 is a servo drive designed and manufactured by Kollmorgen within its AKD Servo Drives series. It belongs to the scalable AKD platform, which covers low- to medium-power ratings for single-axis and multi-axis machines. The drive converts incoming three-phase mains power into a regulated DC link and a pulse-width-modulated output that controls permanent-magnet servo motors, enabling closed-loop velocity, torque, and position control in packaging lines, pick-and-place equipment, and similar automated processes. Because it is part of a modular servo drive line, it can be used in equipment that ranges from compact indexing stations to coordinated machine sections with multiple controlled axes.

In operation, the drive accepts a three-phase supply of 240 / 480 Vac 3~, and its continuous power draw at the S1 duty point is 2.24 kVA. Internally, a Motion Card 1.2 GHz processor executes current-loop and trajectory calculations, while an integrated EtherCAT interface provides parameter access to master controllers with sub-millisecond cycle times. Under steady-state conditions, the power stage can deliver 3 Arms of output current, and it can supply up to 9 Arms for five seconds during acceleration or temporary load spikes. These limits affect motor sizing, cable selection, and cabinet thermal planning.

At the mechanical level, the standard-width housing weighs 2.7 kg, which allows direct panel mounting without heavy support brackets. The product is supplied in the Standard USA configuration, so agency labeling, fuse recommendations, and connector styles match North American electrical codes. Kollmorgen classifies this hardware as a Motion Control variant, so it supports position, velocity, and indexing functions without external option cards. The control and power sections are housed together, which helps conserve panel space while keeping motion functions accessible over the network connection.
