Product Description:

The AKD-P01206-NBCN-0000 is a digital servo drive produced by Kollmorgen for the AKD Servo Drives series. Acting as the power stage between a motion controller and a brushless servo motor, it converts AC mains into regulated three-phase output while closing the current loop at high speed. That arrangement lets the controller send motion commands while the drive handles fast electrical regulation locally. Because the drive manages the fast current loop internally, the higher-level motion system can focus on path control and machine coordination. In automated assembly stations, pick-and-place robots, and precision process equipment, the unit supplies controlled motor power, supervises feedback, and applies protective shutdowns so axes follow commanded trajectories with minimal error.

The drive accepts an input of 120/240 VAC, single-phase or three-phase, so it can be wired to either single-phase utility power or a three-phase plant supply without modification. This input flexibility allows the same model to fit smaller equipment and larger machine installations. Under continuous S1 duty, the power section delivers a nominal phase current of 12 Arms. For transient acceleration, it can produce up to 30 Arms for five seconds before returning to its thermal limit. The peak-current window is useful during rapid starts, short indexing moves, and brief load disturbances that demand extra torque. These current capabilities draw from a supply apparent power rating of 3.82 kVA. Command and diagnostic data are exchanged over CANopen, which supports standardized device profiles and multi-axis synchronization across the machine network.

The Standard USA configuration aligns labeling, fusing, and EMC settings with North American installation practice. Its internal Position Indexer lets the drive execute point-to-point positioning from fieldbus commands instead of relying on the controller for every move step. Local indexing can simplify machine programming when repeated position sequences are stored in the drive and called over the network. The unit is built without additional option boards, so the enclosure remains the standard frame and helps conserve panel space in multi-axis layouts. Its mass is 2 kg, which keeps the physical load on the mounting panel low.
