S61001 by Kollmorgen

The Kollmorgen S61001 is a precision servo drive module within the S600 Servo Drives series, engineered by Kollmorgen for demanding industrial automation tasks. It integrates advanced control algorithms and high-performance power electronics to deliver reliable torque and speed management across a broad range of applications. Designed for compact installation, the module measures diameter of 10 mm and offers robust mechanical properties, ensuring seamless integration into machine frames and automation cells. With an operating life that resists wear and corrosion, the S61001 maintains consistent performance even under extreme conditions. Its versatile configuration supports rapid commissioning and streamlined maintenance routines, reducing system downtime and improving overall equipment efficiency.

The S61001 drive combines a current rating 10A rms power stage with a wide supported voltage 230...480V input range, enabling compatibility with standard industrial power supplies. The stainless steel construction affords corrosion resistance High and a hardness HRC 22 for mechanical durability, while its tensile strength 700 MPa and yield strength 520 MPa provide a secure mounting interface. Threaded anchoring is accommodated via thread size M6 and thread pitch 1.0 mm, with a length 50 mm that balances structural stability and minimal footprint. Thermal resilience is assured over a temperature range -40°C to 400°C, making it suitable for extreme-temperature environments. The unit includes an AS option electrical detail that enhances diagnostic capabilities and enables seamless communication with higher-level controllers.

Operational performance is driven by an 8 kHz switching frequency power converter that minimizes torque ripple and audible noise during motor commutation. A position loop update rate 250 µs (4 kHz) delivers rapid closed-loop corrections, improving placement precision in high-speed pick-and-place and indexing operations. Speed control is governed by a velocity loop update rate 62.5 µs (16 kHz), ensuring tight regulation of rotational velocity under variable loads and preventing surface #engraving artifacts in micro-machining applications. Commutation accuracy is further enhanced by a commutation update rate 62.5 µs, which synchronizes current vector adjustments with rotor position feedback. These real-time control loops achieve consistent dynamic response, reduced settling times, and enhanced throughput in continuous-duty processes.

System integration leverages standard industrial communication protocols, enabling the S61001 to interface directly with PLCs, motion controllers, and SCADA systems for unified process orchestration. Diagnostic and monitoring data can be accessed through the AS option detail, facilitating predictive maintenance and reducing unplanned downtime. The compact, stainless steel design and robust performance profile make the S61001 an ideal choice for applications such as robotic assembly, CNC machine tool axes, packaging machinery, and automated inspection stations. Its combination of mechanical resilience, high-speed control loops, and broad voltage compatibility ensures reliable operation across a spectrum of industrial automation scenarios.
