Product Description:

The AKM23C-ANB2R-00 is a synchronous servo motor produced by Kollmorgen within the AKM Synchronous Servo Motors series. This compact rotary unit is used in industrial automation where closed-loop control of position, velocity, and torque is required for packaging machinery, pick-and-place axes, and light material-handling stations. The motor is intended for use with compatible drives so motion commands from a PLC can be carried out accurately while preserving a small footprint for tight machine layouts. Its compact housing also suits axes where available machine space is limited and responsive changes in speed and torque are needed during short indexing cycles.

An integrated 24 V holding brake locks the shaft when power is removed, preventing load drift on vertical or suspended axes. Power and feedback cables connect through 2 SpeedTec Ready connectors, and these keyed plugs support quick installation. The housing uses a 58 mm frame size, allowing mounting on machines sized for IEC 55/63 motors while maintaining high torque density. The motor has a smooth shaft, which avoids keyways that can introduce backlash in precision couplings. The flange conforms to IEC with accuracy N, helping maintain face runout and pilot concentricity for consistent alignment with gearboxes or bearing blocks.

The servo’s motion feedback is generated by a resolver, which provides noise-resistant analog signals in electrically demanding environments. Within the resolver, the rotor has 2 poles, balancing speed response and position fidelity for mid-range servo tasks. Its sensing element is single-turn inductive, so absolute position is reported over one mechanical revolution without batteries or optical disks. The mechanical stack uses rotor length index 3, which increases active iron length and raises continuous torque without changing the flange size. Winding code C is intended for moderate bus voltages and pairs with common 230 VAC servo amplifiers.
