Product Description:

The ENC-AKM-006M-MCS-DCA-28-AA cable is a purpose-built servo feedback lead manufactured by Kollmorgen for the Kollmorgen Servo Cables series. It carries encoder signals between an AKM servo motor and a Kollmorgen drive, allowing the controller to monitor rotor position, velocity, and electrical phase in automated machinery. By providing a dedicated path for low-level sensor data, the assembly helps maintain tight position loops and minimizes electrical noise that could disturb motion profiles on assembly lines, pick-and-place robots, and packaging axes.

Its overall length of 6 m provides enough reach for routing inside moving cable carriers while avoiding excess slack that could experience premature wear. The cable has a high-flex jacket, and its insulation and conductor stranding withstand the repeated bending cycles typical of dynamic machine axes. At the drive end, a 45° angled connector exits the servo amplifier diagonally, reducing cabinet depth and allowing drives to be stacked closely on DIN rails. The motor side terminates with a straight plug, so the harness can align parallel to the stator housing and clear adjacent mechanical guards. Internal conductors are sized at 28 AWG; this small diameter balances signal integrity with low bending stiffness, which reduces carrier drag forces and supports a longer flex life.

The cable transmits quadrature pulses through an incremental encoder interface, while its commutating wiring type provides the drive with the additional Hall tracks needed for sinusoidal commutation. Installation must maintain a minimum dynamic bend radius of 10 × O.D. to avoid conductor stretching that could alter phase timing. Maintaining this radius also helps prevent premature jacket cracking when the harness moves repeatedly in a cable carrier. The assembly uses shielding and pin assignments compatible with AKD and S700 drives, allowing direct connection without field crimping or custom pin changes. Its dedicated feedback conductors preserve low-level encoder signals as the cable passes near motor power wiring and other sources of electromagnetic interference.
