Kollmorgen AKD2G Servo Drive

Kollmorgen, a worldwide chief in movement management programs, introduced the brand new AKD2G 24A drive. Designed for functions in precision multi-axis servo programs, the brand new single-cable optimized drive builds on the AKD2G portfolio, together with upgraded security options, SD card backup and a graphical show with larger amperage to assist extra functions with larger energy necessities.

The AKD2G 24A servo drive gives 3 times the continual present score throughout peak operation for as much as 5 seconds — ideally suited for intermittent-use, high-power servo motors. In these peak-dependent functions, clients can doubtlessly downsize their servo drive to this new 24A providing. Kollmorgen’s Motioneering sizing & choice software gives steerage by the method.

The brand new AKD2G 24A servo drive gives configurable choices together with security stage, I/O, suggestions and fieldbus. It helps a secondary brake and not using a customary X4 connector and permits for sooner Good Suggestions Adapter (SFA) wiring with a typical X5 connector.

For top-performance functions, together with robotics, clients can depend on Kollmorgen’s assist to optimize drive/motor synchronization, setup and efficiency. Worldwide product and repair availability guarantee long-term productiveness and success.

“The AKD2G 24A delivers larger amperage for extra functions,” mentioned James Davison, senior VP/GM at Kollmorgen. “This excessive stage of flexibility and efficiency potential means clients aren’t pressured to combine and match drives. Merely put, the expanded AKD2G servo drive household now provides clients extra energy and management with much less complexity.”

Kollmorgen shall be showcasing its newest movement management merchandise in sales space 221 at RoboBusiness 2023 (Oct. 18-19 in Santa Clara, Calif,), the main occasion for business robotics improvement. It’s going to even be discussing movement management fundamentals for humanoids and exoskeletons.

With the fast developments in robotics know-how, labor shortages, and the getting older inhabitants, the demand for humanoids and exoskeletons with enhanced effectivity and efficiency has grown. Humanoids and exoskeletons are more and more utilized in numerous functions, together with healthcare, manufacturing, building, and customer support sectors. This necessitates extremely environment friendly, exact, and highly effective electrical motors to assist replicate human-like actions precisely and improve human actions.

Prioritizing efficiency, robotics startups usually defer price and scalability concerns. Sustaining the associated fee facet of SWaP-C (Dimension, Weight, Energy, and Value) poses challenges. To fulfill evolving necessities, deciding on the correct motor answer turns into essential. Within the session, Kollmorgen’s Tom Wooden and Kyle Hanley will handle three essential questions to assist robotics engineers choose the optimum motor design and measurement for his or her robots.

RoboBusiness is the main occasion targeted on creating business robots. There shall be 60-plus audio system, 100-plus exhibitors and demos on the expo ground, 10-plus hours of devoted networking alternatives, the Pitchfire Robotics Startup Competitors and extra. You’ll be able to try the present listing of audio system, to which extra shall be added.

RoboBusiness shall be co-located with the Subject Robotics Engineering Discussion board, an occasion targeted on methods to efficiently develop robots that function in wide-ranging, out of doors, dynamic environments. Additionally co-located with RoboBusiness is DeviceTalks West, the premier business occasion for medical know-how professionals, at present in its ninth 12 months.
