Product Description:

The AKD-P01207-NBEC-0000AKD is an AC servo drive manufactured by Kollmorgen and supplied within the AKD Servo Drives series. It is intended for closed-loop automation, where it links a PLC with a synchronous motor and regulates current, velocity, and position to keep an axis on target. By converting three-phase mains power into controlled pulse-width-modulated output, the drive supports precise motion in packaging equipment, printing systems, robotics, and other automated machines. The closed-loop control structure helps maintain repeatable motion when load conditions change during normal production cycles.

This drive is shipped in the Standard USA configuration, so default settings such as line frequency and labeling follow North American practice. Its continuous output of 12 Arms supports medium-frame motors, while a five-second peak of 30 Arms provides extra torque during acceleration or short overload events. The power section is rated at 7.65 kVA, which indicates the apparent power required for continuous S1 operation. The input stage accepts 240 / 480 Vac 3~, allowing connection to either low-voltage or high-voltage three-phase plant supplies. Real-time control and diagnostic data are exchanged over EtherCAT, which keeps multiple axes synchronized through distributed-clock timing in multi-axis systems.

The drive uses the Position Indexer option, so it can run stored point-to-point motion sequences without a separate motion controller for every move. Stored motion tables are useful for repetitive positioning tasks that need local execution at the drive. It has open expansion slots, allowing optional I/O or safety cards to be added later. With a mass of 5.3 kg, the unit remains manageable for panel mounting and does not place excessive load on a cabinet backplate. Its narrow housing also helps preserve airflow space between adjacent components in compact enclosures.
