Kollmorgen’s brushless servo motors offer the highest torque/inertia ratio over a broad range of speeds—including high speed capabilities up to 8,000 rpm for standard designs and up to 70,000 rpm for special designs.

Our best-in-class, high-performance servomotors offer a wide range of mounting, connectivity, feedback and other options. More than 500,000 standard models are available along with co-engineered modifications to suit almost any application requirement. Gearmotor, washdown and food-grade versions are available.

The new AKMH Series is built to withstand the most rigorous of washdown regimens. The combination of the AKMH’s IP69K construction and corrosion resistant materials, make for a servo motor that will last the life of your machine.

The new VLM family of servomotors provides exceptional torque-per-dollar for customers looking for a low-cost motor with optimal performance.

Kollmorgen DBL and DBK series servomotors incorporate high performance magnets to meet the high dynamic requirements of demanding industrial applications. DBK models are shortened and suitable for use in restricted spaces.

The Kollmorgen Goldline® Series provides optimum performance for applications that involve rapid acceleration/deceleration, compliant loads or large inertia mismatches. These motors are available for 230 and 400/480 VAC line voltage. We also offer explosionproof, washdown and submersible models.

The broad product range of the Kollmorgen servo drives offer a high end control technology in a compact design

While these servomotors are not available for new applications, Kollmorgen continues to provide replacement motors and support for existing customers.

Kollmorgen pioneered the development of direct drive technology. Today, our Direct Drive Rotary (DDR) and Direct Drive Linear (DDL) motors bring you industry-leading performance, zero maintenance, clean mechanical assembly, improved accuracy, higher throughput, better reliability, and smooth, quiet operation.

Our exclusive Cartridge DDR® servomotors combine the performance advantages of a frameless motor with the ease of installation of a full-frame motor. The advanced electromagnetic design provides up to 50 percent more torque density than comparably sized conventional servo motors.

Housed DDR servomotors offer high torque density, precise performance and zero maintenance in an easily installed servo solution.

The KBM™ series offers high performance, long life and simple installation in a motor kit that can be embedded directly in your machine design.

The Kollmorgen TBM (Torquer Brushless Motor) Series direct drive frameless motor is designed to be directly embedded in your machine, using the machine’s own bearings to support the rotor.

The RBE Series from Kollmorgen is a proven platform offering many years of direct drive motor solutions. As the saying goes, these motors are ‘oldies but goodies’ and continue to be viable solutions where relatively high torque and low speed, pancake type motor configurations are required.

A Direct Drive Linear (DDL) motor is basically a rotary motor that is laid out flat and directly coupled to the driven load, eliminating the need for ball/lead screws, rack and pinions, belts/pulleys and gearboxes.

While these direct drive rotary servomotors are not available for new applications, Kollmorgen continues to provide replacement motors and support for existing customers.

Our high-performance, brushless, maintenance-free stepper motors provide precise, extremely cost-effective motion control.

Accessories for digital Motion Systems in Europe

The modules support the DC link and allow a reduction of energy losses when decelerating as well as the bridging of short power outages

We offer the highest-quality CAN, Ethernet, motor power and feedback cables.

During braking with the aid of the motor, electrical energy is fed back into the drive. If excess energy is not dissipated, an over-voltage fault can occur. A regeneration or “regen” resistor allows your drive to function normally during deceleration.

The AKD BASIC Programming Template - Two Minutes of Motion Series

Transcript

Gordon S. Ritchie: Hello, I’m Gordon Ritchie with Kollmorgen and this is “Two Minutes of Motion”. The program template of the AKD Basic programming environment is broken into 5 sections: Device Parameters, Define Global Variables, Main Program, Interrupt Routines, and Subroutines. The template is designed to aid the programmer by providing sections in which to group the different program code.
Gordon S. Ritchie: The first area is the “Device Parameters”, which includes the parameters of the hardware that AKD Basic will be communicating with to produce motion. Our next section is titled “Define Global Variables”, and is the region where variables, constants, and aliases can be recalled from any part of the overall program. Next is the “Main Program” used to input the central program that will determine the actions of a motion system. The main program is defined at the beginning with “main”, and at the end with “end main”. The code between these two points is the main program.
Gordon S. Ritchie: Below the “Main Program”, is the “Subroutines and Function” section. This area allows us to write short procedures or mathematical operations that can be called into the main program when needed. The final segment of the programming environment is for “Interrupt Routines”, which specify a subroutine that will run when a defined interrupt signal occurs.
Gordon S. Ritchie: Within our programming environment, we can include notes along with our code to clear any confusion regarding functionality. Notes can be written by typing an apostrophe and typing any personal notes needed for future clarification. These personal programming notes can be identified by green text following an apostrophe.
Gordon S. Ritchie: AKD Basic allows for many programs to be open at one time if needed for editing, but only the compiled and downloaded program can run. For more information, check out other Two Minutes of Motion segments, or sign up for one of our AKD Basic classes at: w w w Dot Kollmorgen Dot com.

Two Minutes of Motion lesson on the programming template used by the AKD BASIC programmable servo drive. This lesson takes you on a tour of the 5 areas that make up the BASIC program template. Learn about where to set up your device parameters, declare your global variables, where to develop your BASIC program, how to add sub routines, and where to set interrupts.
