Self-driving systems

29 June 2017

Opteq Robotics uses a powerful controller featuring motion control along with two low voltage DC servo motors from Kollmorgen’s AKM series in frame size 3 as wheel drives in its Packman 200 self-driving solution for material flows.

The AKM-31’s regular nominal power rating is 1.3kW with its 400V winding. With the adjustment to 48V the compact units provide 300W of power with planetary gears installed directly. The DC 061 axis module provides virtually 300W of nominal power and is designed to control a synchronous servo motor with up to 6A of continuous current at 48V DC.

The breakaway torques required when starting up the mobile transport robots can be easily controlled since the module is able to provide a peak current of up to 15A at short notice.
