1. Product Title
Kollmorgen SERVOSTAR 603 – Digital Servo Amplifier (S600 Series)
2. Product Overview
The SERVOSTAR 603 is a high-performance, fully digital servo amplifier within Kollmorgen’s S600 series, designed to provide precise control for brushless synchronous servo motors. Operating directly from 230V to 480V AC lines, this drive eliminates the need for external transformers in many global industrial applications. It is engineered to solve the challenge of high-speed motion control in compact spaces, offering an integrated power supply and internal EMI filters.
The SERVOSTAR 603 utilizes advanced digital control loops (PI or PDFF) and patented DQ current control to enhance motor performance, providing smooth low-speed operation and high-speed torque. Its ability to store up to 180 motion tasks and interface with various fieldbus options (like CANopen, PROFIBUS, or EtherCAT via expansion cards) makes it a versatile hub for complex multi-axis automation systems, ensuring reliability and operational simplicity.
