Product Description:

The AKM52H-BKCNAA-01 is a synchronous servo motor produced by Kollmorgen and assigned to the AKM Synchronous Servo Motors series. As a closed-loop actuator, the unit converts drive commands into controlled rotary motion for pick-and-place modules, packaging axes, and other precision positioning tasks found in industrial automation. The product designation indicates a frame size 52 variant with a rotor length index of 2, giving it a mid-power configuration within the wider AKM family. This configuration is suited to compact servo axes that require repeatable motion and stable response during frequent start-stop cycles.

It ships without a brake, so load holding during downtime must be handled by external holding devices or drive torque. Electrical and sensor leads exit through 2 SpeedTec Ready connectors, which use a quarter-turn collar to speed installation while preserving EMC shielding. Position feedback resolution is 2048 lines/rev, enabling the controller to interpolate fine increments for smooth velocity control. The optical encoder communicates via the BISS B Encoder serial protocol, providing bidirectional data and error checking over a single cable. A NEMA flange pattern aligns directly with standardized gearboxes and mounts. The square housing width is 108 mm, which affects clearance requirements and contributes to the motor's thermal surface area.

Mechanical drive coupling is provided by an open keyway on the shaft, allowing positive locking to keyed hubs without additional machining. Connector back shells follow code AD34/AD58, ensuring compatibility with Kollmorgen hybrid cables and strain-relief fittings. The feedback device is single-turn and optical, suiting short-travel axes that do not require multi-turn position memory. Winding code H indicates the voltage constant and current ratings used with matched AKD drives.
