Product Description:

Kollmorgen manufactures the AKM52G-EKCN2-00 servo motor as part of the AKM Synchronous Servo Motors series. This brushless unit converts electrical energy into controlled rotational motion for axes that demand rapid acceleration, repeatable positioning, and tight velocity regulation in automated machinery. Its compact housing supports integration into packaging stations, pick-and-place gantries, and assembly cells where dynamic response must be combined with low maintenance. When paired with a digital drive, the motor forms a closed-loop actuator that can drive couplings, belts, or gear stages directly. This arrangement supports accurate starts, stops, and speed changes during repeated production cycles.

The stator follows a frame dimension of 108 mm, which sets the mounting pattern and shaft height for this size-5 platform. Power and signal terminations are handled through two SpeedTec-ready connectors located at the rear, so installation uses a quarter-turn locking action. Position feedback is provided by a Comcoder encoder that delivers 2048 lines/rev of incremental resolution. When combined with quadrature decoding, this feedback supports fine angular control. The motor uses winding code G, which matches its electrical characteristics to compatible drives. The encoder protocol is EPC 15T, and the optical sensor does not provide multiturn capability.

In this configuration, the motor is supplied without a brake, so the shaft can spin freely when the drive is disabled. External holding methods are needed where vertical loads or suspended masses are present. The feedback section is limited to single-turn optical measurement, so it does not retain absolute revolutions after power loss. Mechanical coupling is aided by an open keyway machined into the shaft, which provides positive torque transfer to pulleys or gears. The motor uses rotor length index 2, which balances torque production and inertia for mid-range applications.
