AKM43E-BKC2R-00 KOLLMORGEN

Description:

The AKM43E-BKC2R-00 is a synchronous servo motor manufactured by Kollmorgen, a global leader in motion control technology. This compact, high-performance servomotor is part of the renowned AKM series and is engineered to deliver precise control of angular position, velocity, and acceleration. Its innovative design and robust construction make it an ideal choice for a wide range of demanding automation applications.

Application Scenarios:

In a high-speed packaging facility, a leading food and beverage manufacturer faced a significant challenge: their existing machinery struggled with the delicate and precise motion required for bottling and capping processes. Inconsistent torque and slow response times led to frequent production line stops, material waste, and missed output targets. To solve this, they integrated the AKM43E-BKC2R-00 into their new servo-driven bottling line. The motor’s high dynamic performance and low cogging enabled smooth, repeatable, and rapid movements for each bottle. Its high-resolution feedback system, specifically the built-in resolver, provided the real-time positional accuracy needed to perfectly align the capping mechanism. This upgrade drastically reduced downtime, improved product quality, and increased overall throughput, proving that the AKM43E-BKC2R-00 is more than just a component—it’s a productivity enabler.

Technical Principles and Innovative Values:

High Power Density: The AKM43E-BKC2R-00 utilizes a neodymium-iron-boron rare-earth magnet rotor. This advanced material allows the motor to generate a high amount of torque and power from a compact, lightweight form factor, significantly reducing the footprint of the machine without sacrificing performance.
Low Cogging and Smooth Motion: The motor’s brushless design and optimized winding topology minimize “cogging,” or the unwanted jerky motion at low speeds. This is crucial for applications requiring ultra-smooth and precise movements, such as in medical robotics or printing presses, where motion quality directly impacts final product quality.
Exceptional Environmental Adaptability: With an IP65 protection rating and a Class F insulation winding, the AKM43E-BKC2R-00 is designed to withstand harsh industrial conditions. The robust housing and specialized internal components ensure reliable operation in environments with high dust levels or moisture, reducing the risk of premature failure and maintenance needs.
Integrated Safety Brake: The inclusion of a 24 VDC electrically released holding brake on the AKM43E-BKC2R-00 provides an essential safety feature. This brake automatically engages when power is cut, preventing a load from dropping or moving unexpectedly, which is vital for vertical applications and machine safety standards.

Application Cases and Industry Value:

A prominent automated logistics company needed to upgrade its sorting and conveying systems to handle a higher volume of packages with greater speed and accuracy. The existing conveyor belts, powered by standard induction motors, lacked the dynamic response for rapid start-stop cycles. By integrating Kollmorgen AKM43E-BKC2R-00 servo motors at critical diversion points, the company achieved a breakthrough. The motors’ high peak torque allowed for near-instantaneous acceleration and deceleration, significantly speeding up the sorting process. The precise positioning capability ensured that each package was diverted to the correct chute with millimeter-level accuracy, eliminating sorting errors and reducing manual re-work. User feedback highlighted the product’s reliability and low maintenance, which contributed to a 20% reduction in operational costs and a 35% increase in throughput.
