Product Description:
The ENC-AKM-015M-MCS-DCA-28-NA is a feedback and commutation cable manufactured by Kollmorgen for the Kollmorgen Servo Cables series. Designed to link AKM servo motors to Kollmorgen drives, the cable transports incremental encoder signals, commutation references, and temperature information so motion controllers can supervise shaft position and thermal status. In industrial automation, this connection creates a dependable path between the rotating encoder assembly and stationary drive electronics, enabling closed-loop velocity and torque control with low electrical noise.
This model is supplied in a length of 15 m, allowing a generous separation between cabinet-mounted drives and field-mounted motors. The outer jacket is rated for static installations, so it is intended for fixed cable trays rather than continuous-flex chains. On the drive end, a D-Sub 15-pin HD male connector is prefitted at a 45° exit angle to minimize bending strain inside crowded enclosures. The motor end uses a straight circular connector that mates with the AKM feedback port. Signal integrity is supported by an internal conductor arrangement of eight pairs of 28 AWG conductors and one pair of 16 AWG conductors. The finer pairs carry differential encoder signals, while the heavier pair supplies power to the sensor.
Incremental position data travels over encoder channels A, A/, B, B/, I, and I/, while three commutation channels designated S1, S2, and S3 provide rotor orientation for startup alignment. These signals share a common return labeled COM and use a logic supply of +5 VDC. The cable also provides a dedicated sensor supply of 9 VDC for auxiliary electronics housed in the motor. Feedback uses an incremental encoder format, and the commutating signal arrangement combines incremental counts with Hall-style phase information. A separate TEMPERATURE+ and TEMPERATURE− pair relays thermal sensor data to the drive, allowing it to initiate derating or shutdown before the motor windings exceed their permitted temperature limits.
