Kollmorgen 2G Motion System
The Kollmorgen 2G Motion System harnesses the full performance potential of our leading AKM2G servo motors and perfectly matched AKD2G drives designed to deliver unrivaled power density and control. The result is significantly enhanced torque, responsiveness and SafeMotion capabilities in a compact footprint that enables easy installation and total flexibility.
Performance vs Value Line
Choose the right cable for your products. Kollmorgen’s 2nd generation products (e.g. AKM2G, AKD2G) require 2G Performance cables. First generation products (e.g. AKM, AKD) are compatible with either 1G Performance or 1G Value Line cables.
| Cable Bend and Flex rating | Hybrid vs Dual Cable | Connectivity (Products) | Cable Length | Feedback Options | Price | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2G Performance | Dynamic | Both | (2G → 2G) (2G → 1G) | Custom Lengths (ex. SFD3 up to 75m) | SFD & SFD3, BiSS, EnDat, HiPerface, Resolver, and Comcoder | $$ |
| 1G Performance | Dynamic | Both | (1G → 1G) | Custom Lengths (ex. SFD3 up to 75m) | SFD & SFD3, BiSS, EnDat, HiPerface, Resolver, and Comcoder | $$ |
| 1G Value Line | Static | Dual Only | AKM, CDDR and DDR Paired to AKD | 1, 3, 6, 9, 12m | SFD, BiSS, EnDat, Resolver | $ |
*Hybrid cables are highly engineered to combine power conductors and feedback-signal conductors into one cable. Dual cables solutions separate power from feedback and typically allow for longer cable lengths. SFD3, Hiperface DSL and Endat 2.2 feedbacks are supported in hybrid cable technology.

Information for Building Your Own CAN Cables:
According to ISO 11898, you should use a bus cable with a characteristic impedance of 120 Ω. For best results, we recommend CAT5e cable. The usable cable length depends on the transmission rate. The following measured values can be taken as a guide, but they should not be interpreted as limits. Construction details can be found in the Accessories Manual
| Cable length, depending on the transmission rate | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Transmission rate/kbps | 1000 | 500 | 250 |
| Maximum cable length/m | 20 | 70 | 115 |
