AKD2G System Configuration with Kollmorgen DDL Linear Motors

The attached document shows the wiring requirements for connecting the DDL linear motors to the AKD servo drive. It also describes the setup procedure for configuring the AKD2G drive in the Workbench software.

Overview

This procedure covers the case where the feedback AXIS#.PL.FB counts up or positive when moving the coil in the same direction as the motor lead exit. In the case the feedback counts down or negative using this convention the standard procedure can still be followed assuming your feedback type is one where wiring changes can change the sign or direction of the feedback. If your feedback type does not allow the feedback count to be resolved by wiring, please follow the conventions in Appendix A of the PDF.

Feedback Types that can be inverted by wiring:

  • Incremental Encoder with or without Halls
  • Sine Encoder with or without Halls

Feedback Types that cannot be inverted:

  • BISS
  • EnDAT
  • Hiperface
  • Hiperface DSL
  • Renishaw BISS C
