Product Description:

AKD-P00307-NCEC-0111 is a Kollmorgen servo drive from the AKD Servo Drives series. It operates as a position indexer, so the internal controller issues motion profiles directly to the motor without requiring an external PLC to perform interpolation. The product is used in automated machinery that needs accurate torque, speed, and position control from a three-phase AC source, allowing power conversion and closed-loop regulation in one 70 mm-wide package. This arrangement suits compact systems that rely on stored motion profiles inside the drive.

The drive delivers a continuous current of 3 Arms, which is the current it can handle continuously, and it can supply up to 9 Arms for five-second peaks during acceleration or shock loads. It accepts a rated bus of 240 / 480 VAC three-phase, so it can operate from either low- or high-voltage mains. Power drawn at the S1 duty point is 2.24 kVA, a value used to size upstream protection devices. Communication with higher-level controllers is through EtherCAT, letting the unit exchange process data every network cycle while still executing its own indexed moves. A built-in line filter supports CE compliance, and an internal low-voltage supply energizes logic circuits without an auxiliary transformer. Physical dimensions are 256 mm in height and 185 mm in depth, so the unit fits shallow enclosures while leaving clearance for airflow.

The motion processor updates the position loop every 269 µs and refreshes the velocity loop every 62.5 µs, allowing rapid correction of following error in high-gain applications. The drive has 7 digital inputs for limit switches, homing sensors, and drive enable commands; one input serves the STO safety channel, and another dedicated line is used for the enable input. Two digital outputs report status to external contactors or stack lights, which supports basic machine interlocking and status signaling. The aluminum housing weighs 2.7 kg, keeping panel load low while still providing enough mass for heat dissipation.
