The published technical information identifies the CB06560 / PRD-B040SAIB-62 as a SERVOSTAR CD digital servo amplifier with resolver feedback. The exact motor, feedback configuration, command interface, and parameter set must be checked against the installed machine before substitution.
Product Introduction
The Kollmorgen CB06560 PRD-B040SAIB-62 is a SERVOSTAR CD digital servo amplifier used for closed-loop control of compatible servo motors. It regulates motor torque, velocity, and position through drive-level control rather than acting as a general PLC or DCS controller.
Its resolver feedback configuration is the key point when replacing an installed unit. A physically identical drive is not automatically a functional replacement; motor data, resolver characteristics, command wiring, and stored tuning parameters all need to match the machine configuration.

Application Scenarios & Field Pitfalls
Engineering Pain Point
A failed legacy servo amplifier can stop one machine axis while the rest of the control system remains healthy. That makes troubleshooting deceptively difficult. With the CB06560, replacing the hardware alone may not restore motion if the resolver wiring, motor constants, command interface, or servo parameters differ from the original installation. Treat this as a motion-control replacement, not a simple plug-in I/O swap.
Typical Applications
- CNC Machinery — closed-loop spindle or precision axis control
- Packaging Equipment — synchronized indexing and positioning
- Paper and Converting Machinery — controlled web movement and motor speed
- Industrial Machine Tools — torque, velocity, and position regulation
Technical Pitfalls to Avoid
- Do not assume any CD-series drive is interchangeable.
The CB06560 / PRD-B040SAIB-62 has a specific feedback configuration. Confirm the resolver interface and motor compatibility before energizing the replacement. - Preserve the original servo parameters.
A replacement amplifier may power up normally while producing poor acceleration, oscillation, excessive following error, or unstable stopping if tuning values are missing or incorrect. - Separate feedback and motor power wiring.
Resolver signals are sensitive to electrical noise. Published installation guidance for this drive family calls for physical separation between motor power and feedback cables, with appropriate shielding. - Respect the DC-bus discharge period.
This is a power-electronics device. Do not treat a switched-off cabinet as electrically safe immediately after removing mains power. Follow the OEM service procedure and verify the DC bus before handling terminals.
Related Products
- Kollmorgen CB06551 — Related SERVOSTAR CD servo drive. Useful when the existing machine documentation identifies CB06551 rather than CB06560; verify current rating, feedback configuration, and revision before considering substitution.
- Kollmorgen CB06251 — Another CD-series servo drive. It belongs to the same general legacy drive family but should not be assumed to have identical electrical ratings or feedback configuration.
- Kollmorgen CP320260 / PRD-P320260E-C2 — CD-series servo driver intended for a different power configuration. Relevant when evaluating an existing CD-system architecture, but not a direct replacement without an electrical compatibility review.
- Kollmorgen DIGIFAS 7201 — Different Kollmorgen servo-drive family. Consider for equipment migration studies rather than direct replacement.
- Kollmorgen DIGIFAS 7202 — Higher-level alternative within the DIGIFAS family. Application suitability depends on motor, feedback, command interface, and cabinet requirements.
- Kollmorgen S20360-SRS — S200-series servo drive. Useful as a comparison point when planning migration away from legacy CD hardware; it is not a drop-in substitute.
- Kollmorgen S20330-SRS — Another S200-series drive option for machine motion applications. Match motor power, feedback, control method, and commissioning requirements before specifying it.
- Kollmorgen S72402-NANANA-NA-225 — SERVOSTAR S700-family drive for applications where a newer drive architecture is being evaluated. Migration requires an engineering review rather than a simple part-number swap.
Procurement note: The / PRD-B040SAIB-62 is legacy hardware. For a critical production axis, the practical approach is to verify the exact nameplate, motor model, resolver wiring, command interface, firmware/revision information, and existing parameter backup before approving a spare. Publicly available technical information is not sufficient to establish drop-in compatibility for every machine configuration.
