AKD2G-SPE-7V12S-A1DX-E000 by Kollmorgen

The AKD2G-SPE-7V12S-A1DX-E000 is a single-axis servo amplifier produced by Kollmorgen as part of the AKD2G Servo Drives series. Identified as an AKD second-generation drive, it converts incoming three-phase mains power into precisely modulated motor current so that positioning tables, pick-and-place heads, and packaging actuators follow commanded motion profiles. In automated machines, the unit bridges motion controller commands and electromechanical output while helping keep cabinet space usage low. This makes it suitable for equipment that requires tightly regulated speed, torque, and position control during repeated operating cycles.

Its power section accepts a three-phase supply of 240 / 480 Vac 3~ and can deliver a continuous output current of 12 Arms to the connected motor windings. The drive has a Servo IP20 housing, so cooling airflow must be provided by the control enclosure, and the enclosure limits contact with internal parts and larger solid objects. Fast cyclic data exchange is handled through EtherCAT, allowing the drive to exchange real-time command and feedback data with the control system. Safety functions are embedded, and the drive supports STO, safe inputs, SIL2 PLd for emergency-stop integration without external contactors.

The control feature set is completed by a single-axis topology that directs motion through a Position Indexer core. Application code and cam profiles are loaded as motion tasks so the drive can execute stored positioning sequences with reduced PLC intervention during repetitive machine cycles. Stored tasks let the drive handle short indexing and cam-based sequences locally, which can reduce controller traffic during repeated moves. Field wiring is assigned to +X22, +X23 connectors, which separates the relevant connection points for control and interface signals. Diagnostic revisions are tracked under MAP Revision A, providing a clear reference for configuration alignment and service records. This arrangement suits machine layouts that use coordinated motion and stored indexing sequences across several axes.
