Product Description:

The AKM22C-ANB21-00 is a servo motor produced by Kollmorgen for the AKM Synchronous Servo Motors series. As a brushless AC unit, it converts drive current into precisely metered torque for pick-and-place robots, indexing tables, and other coordinated axes in automated assembly lines. The motor fits distributed drive networks where compact size and high-resolution feedback support accurate closed-loop positioning. Its form factor is well suited to machinery that requires repeatable motion, short response times, and reliable operation through frequent start-stop cycles.

The motor includes a 24 V holding brake that engages automatically when the drive is disabled, helping prevent load drift on vertical or cantilevered mechanisms. Electrical interfaces use two SpeedTec Ready connectors, and their quarter-turn locking sleeves provide tool-free attachment while maintaining IP sealing. The feedback assembly uses a Comcoder disk encoder with 1024 lines/rev of incremental resolution, giving the drive detailed motion data for speed and position control. It also provides a single-turn optical absolute track, so the controller receives shaft angle immediately after power-up and can begin motion without a reference move. This combination supports controlled restarts and stable servo response during repeated positioning tasks.

The encoder protocol identifier EPC 15T matches the feedback signal requirements of Kollmorgen AKD and S700 controllers, so the motor can exchange position data in the expected format. The square housing has a frame dimension of 58 mm, and torque is transmitted through a smooth shaft that eases coupling to clamp hubs and avoids key-seat stress concentrations. Mounting faces conform to the IEC with accuracy N flange pattern, allowing the unit to bolt to planetary gearboxes or direct-drive load plates. Internally, winding code C is paired with a rotor length index of 2 to support drive matching and a balanced inertia profile. That combination helps the motor suit compact axes that need responsive acceleration without sacrificing controlled motion quality.
