Product Description:

Kollmorgen produces the AKD-P00306-NAEC-0000 servo drive as a member of the AKD Servo Drives series. The unit is an AC-powered digital amplifier that regulates torque, velocity, or position of matched synchronous or induction motors in automated machinery. By converting line power into controlled three-phase output, it links motion axes to PLC-level commands and supports precise positioning, repeatable cycles, and coordinated multi-axis sequences in packaging, material handling, and light assembly equipment.

The drive accepts a single-phase or three-phase supply of 120 / 240 Vac 1~/3~, giving flexibility for low-power benches or higher-power machine cabinets. Under continuous S1 duty, it delivers 3 Arms of output current, while its overload reserve reaches 9 Arms for five-second bursts that accommodate acceleration or transient load spikes. Input section sizing is based on a thermal power rating of 1.2 kVA, so wiring and circuit protection can be selected for that apparent power level. Communication with higher-level motion controllers occurs over EtherCAT, enabling distributed clock synchronization and cyclic update times under one millisecond. These values determine electrical loading, cabling, and network topology during system integration.

The unit is configured as a Position Indexer, so it can execute absolute or incremental moves from an internal register table without relying on an external motion card. The drive is the Standard USA variant, aligning connector sets and safety markings with North American panel practices. No optional I/O or feedback daughtercards are installed, and the extension option is None (rev 7), which helps keep enclosure depth low. Despite its integrated features, the drive weighs only 1.1 kg, allowing DIN rail mounting on lightweight machine frames and reducing thermal mass for quicker cabinet cooling after power cycles.
