AKD2G Gantry Application SetupA gantry system consists of two motors sharing a load with minimal wasted energy used in opposing each other. This document is an attempt to help with setup and use of the Kollmorgen gantry control embedded in the AKD2G two-axis drive. For the scope of this document, I will refer to the…
Coupler Sizing - AKT2G Remote IOThe AKD-PDMM controller/drive, PCMM standalone controller, AKD, AKD2G, and S700 drives all contain hardware I/O that can be used in an application to interface to other control elements on the machine. Typically, to minimize overall system cost, IO point on these products are used first before…
Configuring BBH SCU with AKD2G SRA parameters This article shows how to make a simple safety Application with KAS and SafePLC2.
The Functional Safety parameters can be configured in WorkBench or in the BBH SafePLC2. Both methods are described here.
AKD and the Raspberry PiRaspberry Pi Foundation and its background.
The foundation's goal was to advance the Computer Science, Programming, and engineering education of children and adults with a low-cost and high-performance solution.
