Product Description:

The AKM32D-ANM22-01 servo motor is produced by Kollmorgen within the AKM Synchronous Servo Motors series. It is intended for closed-loop positioning and velocity control in automated machinery where compact dimensions and rapid dynamic response are required. By combining a brushless rotor, digital feedback, and an integrated brake, the unit provides the mechanical power element of a drive axis that must follow controller commands with high accuracy. This type of motor is commonly used on indexing axes, feed systems, and compact transfer units where accurate stopping and smooth speed regulation are important. It can be used in machines that need quick starts, short settling times, and controlled motion over repeated production cycles.

A factory-installed 24 V holding brake keeps the shaft locked during power-off conditions so vertical loads do not drift. Position data are delivered by an incremental track with 2048 lines/rev inside the motor’s Comcoder, and this optical sensor supplies both commutation and motion feedback. Its feedback format is single-turn optical and carries the identifier EPC 15T, enabling direct recognition by compatible Kollmorgen servo drives. The rotor length index 2 balances torque output against inertia for mid-range applications. A 70 mm frame size supports installation where mounting space is limited, and a shaft seal helps prevent lubricant migration into the feedback cavity.

Integration into IEC gearheads is simplified by an IEC with accuracy N flange, which aligns the pilot diameter and bolt circle to standard sizes. Power is transmitted through a smooth shaft, allowing clamp or collet couplings to be positioned without keyway backlash. The electromagnetic characteristics associated with winding code D support higher base speed when the motor is paired with AKD amplifiers. This arrangement suits packaging, printing, and pick-and-place equipment that requires repeatable indexing and stable feedback during frequent speed changes. The sealed motor layout also helps protect internal components in applications exposed to routine washdown procedures. Because the shaft has no keyway, coupling alignment can be maintained with low backlash in precision motion assemblies.
