Product Description:

The AKD-P00307-NAEC-0000 is a digital servo drive manufactured by Kollmorgen for the AKD Servo Drives series. The unit sits between a machine’s motion controller and its servo motor, modulating line power into precisely timed current pulses that create accurate torque, speed, and position profiles. In automated assembly cells, material-handling gantries, and compact packaging stations, the drive’s fast current loop and embedded position functions remove the need for separate amplifiers or PLC motion cards, streamlining axis control across a wide range of industrial automation tasks.

The power stage accepts a 240 / 480 Vac three-phase supply, enabling operation on both low-voltage and medium-voltage plant mains without hardware changes. Continuous motor excitation is limited to 3 Arms, protecting stator windings during sustained duty cycles, while a short-term peak of 9 Arms is available for five seconds to overcome inertial loads at startup. The apparent power drawn from the supply is capped at 2.24 kVA, a value commonly used when sizing branch protection and isolation transformers. Real-time command, feedback, and diagnostic data travel over integrated EtherCAT, allowing deterministic cyclic updates and synchronized multi-axis motion without add-on communication cards.

Regional compliance is addressed by the Standard USA customization variant, which aligns labeling, fusing, and conducted-emission limits with North American control cabinets. Motion control logic is handled by the built-in Position Indexer, so the drive can execute absolute or relative moves from digital triggers even if the fieldbus is idle. The unit is in revision 7 and does not use an extension module, which keeps the enclosure width at the series’ standard dimension and simplifies airflow paths. Despite its thermal plate and EMI filters, the assembly weighs only 2.7 kg, easing DIN-rail or back-panel installation adjacent to other automation components.
