Core Performance and Selection Advantages

The S72402-NANANA-NA-225 exemplifies Kollmorgen’s focus on responsive, adaptable motion control in a compact footprint. Its current loop bandwidth exceeds 2.0 kHz, enabling exceptional tracking accuracy in high-acceleration applications—outperforming many legacy drives that operate below 1.5 kHz. Unlike fixed-protocol competitors, this unit allows protocol selection via software without hardware changes, offering future-proof flexibility during project evolution or machine variants. A standout feature is the integrated auto-tuning and vibration suppression within Kollmorgen WorkBench software, which can reduce commissioning time by up to 40% compared to manual tuning approaches. From a TCO standpoint, the drive’s ability to operate directly from single-phase mains eliminates the need for three-phase infrastructure in smaller cells, while its multi-encoder support avoids costly feedback adapters. Additionally, native STO compliance removes external safety relays, simplifying panel design and reducing component count.

System Integration and Scalability

Programming and configuration are handled through Kollmorgen WorkBench, a unified engineering environment that supports motion logic, parameterization, diagnostics, and oscilloscope functions—accelerating development cycles and easing troubleshooting. The drive’s native EtherCAT interface ensures deterministic performance with sub-millisecond cycle times and seamless integration into mainstream PLC ecosystems (e.g., Beckhoff, Omron, Siemens). For higher-level connectivity, it supports standard Ethernet services alongside real-time protocols, enabling direct data exchange with SCADA via Modbus TCP or OPC UA when paired with a gateway. In terms of expansion, multiple AKD drives synchronize precisely over EtherCAT using distributed clock mechanisms, supporting complex multi-axis coordination. The modular feedback architecture allows easy adaptation to different motor types without drive replacement, and additional I/O or communication options (e.g., PROFINET) can be added via terminal modules. This scalability makes the platform suitable from single-axis pick-and-place units to synchronized multi-axis gantries.
