Essentials™ Servo Drive

The Kollmorgen Essentials™ drive was designed with simplicity and flexibility in mind. It supports leading industrial Ethernet protocols, which are field programmable, and includes easy setup tools for fast commissioning and reliable performance. The standard configuration includes high-performance, value-added features such as multi-axis synchronization, integrated functional safety features and high-speed registration capabilities.

• Multiple communication protocols onboard, including the industry’s most common real-time communication protocols: EtherCAT®, EtherNet/IP™ or PROFINET®. Simply switch parameters on the Essentials drive to accommodate your chosen industrial fieldbus type.
• Multi-Axis Synchronization is in Reach: The Kollmorgen Essentials servo drive supports synchronous motion profiles using your choice of EtherCAT®, CIP Sync or PROFINET IRT, allowing you to standardize your drive cabinet and synchronize your drive while connecting with motion control systems from all major manufacturers.
• Integrated functional safety with dual-channel STO SIL2/Cat 3 PL d supports emergency stops and prevents the system from restarting unexpectedly to help protect people, products and equipment.
• Plug-and-play setup for faster design with the new Express Setup feature in our WorkBench software. Setup, configuration and tuning are simple, even for engineers with little motion experience. And the full suite of WorkBench tools are also included for more advanced motion programming and tuning tasks.
