Product Description:

The AKM41E-EKCNC-00 is a brushless AC servo motor manufactured by Kollmorgen and belongs to the AKM Synchronous Servo Motors series. In industrial automation, the unit converts drive commands from a matched amplifier into precise shaft motion for positioning, indexing, and coordinated speed regulation on packaging, material-handling, and assembly lines. It is commonly used where a servo axis must regulate speed changes and stopping points with low lag. The motor format also suits machines that combine frequent starts, short moves, and synchronized rotary motion.

This motor is supplied without a brake, so static holding force must be provided externally when the axis is powered down. Power and feedback wiring are routed through 2 SpeedTec Ready connectors, a keyed quick-lock interface that reduces installation time and maintains IP-rated sealing. Separate quick-lock connections also help keep routing organized where motor cables pass through tight machine spaces. The onboard encoder exports position data over 4 lines using the SFD protocol. That interface carries commutation and status information through the same feedback path. A single-turn inductive sensor eliminates optical disks and tolerates dust or oil in the machine environment. Kollmorgen classifies the build as the standard customization level, and the rotor length index of 1 indicates the shortest magnetic stack within the 4-frame group.

Feedback mechanical dimensions follow the Size 10/15/21 format, which keeps encoder-side mounting geometry consistent across related motor configurations in this frame group. The square housing measures 84 mm across the mounting face, matching IEC metric flanges used on compact rotary stages. This face size fits compact machine layouts without requiring a larger motor body. Torque is delivered through an open keyway shaft, so couplings can lock onto the machined slot for positive drive. Phase windings use the e code, giving resistance and inductance values suited to 230 V class drives while keeping temperature rise within design limits.
