The AKD Servo Drives and AKM Servo Motors feature a low-cog, low-harmonic distortion magnetic design.

National Instruments (Austin, TX) has announced new AKD Servo Drives and AKM Servo Motors that make it possible for engineers and scientists to easily build scalable, distributed motion control systems. The new products simplify setup and configuration for deploying custom motion applications to any NI real-time controller supporting NI EtherCAT technology including NI CompactRIO, PXI real-time controllers and NI industrial controllers and feature:

• 4 different frame sizes.
• High torque, density, and speed ranges.
• Low-cog, low-harmonic distortion magnetic design.
• Simplified setup and configuration through EtherCAT technology and integration with the LabVIEW project.
• Torque loop updates in 0.67 μs, and velocity and position loops at 62.5 and 125 μs.
