Product Description:

Kollmorgen’s CE06550 is a servo drive from the CD Servostar CD Drives series. As part of the Compact Drive family, it regulates brushless servo motors by converting DC-bus power into controlled three-phase motor output. The unit mounts inside control cabinets and is intended for precise speed and position control on pick-and-place axes, feeders, light gantries, and other high-cycle machinery. Its compact format suits automation systems where repeatable motion and stable response are required across frequent start, stop, and indexing sequences.

Command references reach the drive through an Analog interface, and encoder feedback is used for closed-loop motor control. The power stage operates from a 325 VDC link that switches at 8 kHz to create three-phase output for the connected motor. Under rated conditions, the inverter supplies 2.2 kW to the motor while drawing about 2.8 kW from a single-phase mains source and delivering 6 A of continuous current. A separate auxiliary supply keeps the logic section active during DC-bus disturbances, which helps preserve stored settings and diagnostic status. Regenerative energy is absorbed by an external braking circuit with a 20 Ω resistor rated for 200 W.

During dynamic demand, the drive allows a short-term current limit of 12 Arms for two seconds and 18 Arms for 500 ms, giving added torque during acceleration and brief overload events. Protection includes an overvoltage trip at 430 VDC, an undervoltage trip at 90 VDC, and an internal shutdown when the heat sink reaches 80 °C. These thresholds help protect the power semiconductors and insulation system during abnormal operating conditions. The unit weighs 2.22 kg, so it can be mounted on DIN rails or directly on a back panel, and its diagnostics report the cause of a trip for clearer fault identification.
