Product Description:

The AKD-P01206-NBEC-0000 is a servo drive manufactured by Kollmorgen within the AKD Servo Drives series. As a position-controlled power stage, it links a machine motion controller to a three-phase servo motor and converts incoming AC power into regulated motor current. This arrangement supports accurate positioning, repeatable speed control, and responsive torque delivery in packaging equipment, pick-and-place systems, and light machine-tool axes where coordinated motion must remain stable during frequent starts, stops, and direction changes.

The drive accepts a rated supply of 120 / 240 Vac 1~/3~, so it can operate from either single-phase or three-phase mains commonly used in North American control panels. Under continuous duty, the converter draws up to 3.82 kVA and provides a nominal phase current of 12 Arms. For short acceleration periods, it can deliver a peak output of 30 Arms for five seconds, which gives the motor additional torque during rapid indexing and speed changes. Communication with higher-level control systems is handled through EtherCAT, allowing motion commands, status data, and diagnostics to move across one deterministic industrial network.

The drive uses the Standard USA configuration, so its labeling, default parameters, and compliance markings match regional wiring conventions. It includes the Position Indexer version, which allows single-axis stand-alone motion sequences to be triggered by digital signals or fieldbus commands without requiring a separate motion card. The unit is supplied with no hardware extension, which leaves out auxiliary I/O and feedback mezzanine options and keeps the internal configuration straightforward. Despite its output capability, the enclosure mass is only 2 kg, making the drive suitable for DIN rail or backplate mounting in compact multi-axis cabinets where panel space and support load both matter.

Fault / warning code What it means  corrective action
F301 Motor overheated Motor temperature sensor above its limit  Let the motor cool, lower cabinet temperature or improve airflow, then re-enable the drive.
F302 Overspeed Actual speed exceeded the user limit (VL.THRESH)  Reduce commanded velocity or raise VL.THRESH if the machine allows; reset in WorkBench.
F303 Run-away / fold-back Commanded trajectory not followed for too long  Check mechanical load, soften accel/decel ramps and reduce servo gains before clearing.
F235 Power-stage over-temperature Heat-sink sensor 1 detected > 85 °C  Improve cabinet ventilation, verify fan operation, allow cooldown; fault clears automatically.
F247 DC-bus measurement error / over-voltage Bus-voltage reading outside safe window  Verify mains and brake resistor, inspect bus capacitors; replace drive if sensor fault recurs.
F256 Analog-input over-voltage Analog signal above AIN.OVFTHRESH  Check external wiring and scale; lower source voltage or raise AIN.OVFTHRESH sensibly.
F417 Broken wire in primary feedback Incremental encoder A/B amplitude too low  Test cable continuity, reseat X10 connector, improve shielding/grounding, then reset.
F451 Feedback battery fault External multiturn-battery voltage too low Replace or recharge battery pack; clear with DRV.CLRFAULTS = 1 when voltage OK.
F245 External fault input active User-assigned digital input forced a fault  Release the input or set DINx.MODE = 10 to disable, then write DRV.CLRFAULTS = 1.
F525 Output-stage over-current Phase current exceeded 30 A peak (12 A frame)  Inspect motor leads for shorts, limit torque command or tune gains down before restart.

Error code What it means
F101 Firmware image is not compatible with the drive hardware.
F105 NV-memory stamp invalid – corrupted parameter block.
F121 Homing error – the axis failed to complete its homing routine.
F125 Fieldbus sync frames lost – EtherCAT/CANopen lost synchronisation.
F235 Power stage over-temperature (heat-sink sensor 1).
F247 DC-bus voltage reading outside valid window (hardware or true over-voltage).
F301 Motor overheated – temperature sensor in the motor exceeded limit.
F305 Brake open-circuit – drive detects no current through the motor brake coil.
F417 Broken wire in primary feedback – incremental-encoder signal amplitude too low.
F560 Regeneration near capacity – braking resistor could not prevent a bus over-voltage event.
