Product Description:

Kollmorgen manufactures the AKM72P-ANCNDA00, a brushless servo motor in the AKM Synchronous Servo Motors series. The unit serves as an electromechanical actuator that converts commanded drive current into controlled torque and position for automated machinery, enabling coordinated motion in packaging lines, pick-and-place stations, and other precision axes used in material handling and assembly processes. Its compact frame allows integration in tight machine envelopes where accurate servo response is required.

The mechanical interface uses an IEC flange with accuracy N, so the motor seats directly against standard gearboxes or mounting plates without shimming. A frame outside diameter of 188 mm establishes the footprint and, together with rotor length index 2, places the motor in a mid-size torque class. Power and feedback exit through two SpeedTec Ready connectors, permitting keyed, tool-free coupling during installation. The shaft end is a smooth shaft design that mates with clamp or compression couplings where zero-backlash power transmission is required. Because the unit ships without a brake, dynamic holding must be provided by the drive or by an external clamp. Winding designation P identifies the coil set used with conventional 230/400 V servo inverters, while the standard customization level indicates that no special seals or coatings are included.

The feedback chain is based on an EnDat 2.1 encoder that streams absolute position data to the drive. This device uses the ECN1113/1313 optical head in a single-turn format and delivers a dual-edge resolution of 512/2048 lines/rev, supporting tight velocity loops and rapid homing without external switches. Because the position information is absolute within one mechanical revolution, the axis can resume operation immediately after power is restored. The optical sensing method also resists magnetic fields generated by high-current buses, supporting reliable commutation when the motor is paired with AKD or other compatible Kollmorgen controllers.
