Performance boost

With 20kW the compact devices are now also providing double the previous maximum continuous output of 10kW. The short-term peak output for both devices is just short of three times the nominal current.

With its distributed servo technology in protection class IP67, AKD-N enables KOLLMORGEN to incorporate drive functions on-site in a machine. This is said to result in smaller switch cabinets, better options for modularisation, reduced cabling outlay, and greater flexibility in construction. The AKD-N servo system also supports fast and cost-efficient installation using single-cable connection technology and options to use the devices in conjunction with Ethercat for collecting I/O signals.
