Kollmorgen AKM2G Servomotor 2G Motion Control System Benefits

The Benefits of AKM2G Servo Motor

Smaller Footprint

Reduce machine space

• For equivalent torque it is possible to use a smaller size motor than competitive motors.

• The range of AKM2G sizes provides for optimizing for length or flange square depending on

which dimension is most critical.

• Use of the smaller motor saves space achieving equivalent performance in a smaller

footprint machine or saving space for other machine elements.

Increased Torque

Higher performance

• For a given frame size the AKM2G provides an average continuous torque increase of 30%

compared to competitive motors of equivalent size.

• Higher torque in the same package size increases machine performance (greater throughput,

move heavier loads, etc.).

Wider Speed Range

Faster operation

• For many AKM2G sizes the maximum speeds are higher than competitive motors.

• Higher speeds  operate machines faster  greater throughput.

Greater Flexibility

More options to match needs

• AKM2G is designed to support a wider array of feedback, brake, thermal sensor and shaft

seal options – this greater flexibility means a higher probability of meeting application

requirements with a standard product.

• The AKM2G design has the potential for greater CoEngineering (modification) thanks to the

new housing design.  With a more flexible design for CoEngineering addressing applications

not covered by catalog standards is increased.

Higher Efficiency

Reduce energy consumption

• AKM2G has lower equivalent resistance than competitive solutions. For equivalent motor

frame sizes AKM2G will typically be more energy efficient (2-5%).

• Energy consumption is reduced with AKM2G compared to competitors.
