Kollmorgen 2G Motion System - AKM2G-Servomotor und AKD2G-Antriebe
A flexible, one-stop solution with unparalleled power density and control Thoughtful Design, Sleek Setup, Ultimate Performance. The Kollmorgen 2G Motion System brings developers two benefits: a servo motor and a drive system that are designed to provide optimal compatibility, enable easy setup and higher performance. At the same time, the technologies provide the flexibility, performance and control options that make any design stand out various individual components can be implemented as required. Power in a compact form - The Kollmorgen 2G Motion System offers unmatched power and torque density in a compact form factor. The AKM2G servo motors achieve an average of 30% higher torque density than the previous generation - while maintaining the same size and mounting, allowing OEMs to reduce the footprint of their machines without sacrificing performance. At the same time, the AKD2G drive enables the parts list to be reduced thanks to the single-cable connection, double-axis drives and optimized intelligent functions. Simplicity and flexibility - The individual components of the Kollmorgen 2G Motion System are designed to work seamlessly with each other and can be put together according to the plug & play principle. This reduces commissioning time, increases performance and offers designers greater flexibility and control. The AKM2G motor and AKD2G drive can be used together as a system or independently for highly customization.
