Kollmorgen’s VLM servomotors offer good performance at an excellent price

January 5, 2012 By Motion Control Tips Editor Leave a Comment

Kollmorgen (www.kollmorgen.com) has launched its Value-Line servomotors (VLM), which offer good performance at an exceptional price. With a torque of between 0.5 Nm and 16 Nm (continuous or peak), the servomotors deliver a high value, limited feature set motor that provides solid servo performance for various applications.

“VLM servomotors deliver exceptional value to machine builders who need good servomotor performance at the best possible price,” said Gene Matthews, Product Manager at Kollmorgen.

“These motors deliver high-torque-per-dollar by leveraging specially selected components and flying leads that help eliminate the need for intermediate cables, and by utilizing low cost feedback options,” he added.

“VLM motors complement Kollmorgen’s high-performance and high-flexibility global AKM(TM) servomotor product line by providing a lower priced solution built around a focused set of options.”

With 12 standard windings, VLM servomotors are offered in the most famous motor sizes and come in NEMA 23 and NEMA 34 as well as Metric mounting standards. The ROHS compliant servomotors also feature multiple shaft configurations to allow for seamless integration into almost any system.

Offering a rated speed of up to 6000 rpm, the VLM servomotors delivers up to 16 Nm peak torque and around five Nm continuous torque, while operating at 160/320 VDC or 120/240 VAC. The cable and multiple feedback options provide machine builders system configuration flexibility at no added cost.
