Kollmorgen Essentials Motor Shaft Key Kit - Contents and Required Tools

Every Kollmorgen Essentials Motor is provided with a Shaft Key Kit.

Kit Contents

The shaft keyways are in a separate plastic bag from the servo motor.

The kit contents are:

  • 1 - Half/modified key for smooth shaft applications.
  • 1 - Full key for keyed shaft applications.
  • QR code leading to this installation manual.
  • The shaft should be in balance when either key is properly installed in the keyway.
  • The keys are intended for permanent installation.
  • Verify the correct type of key is installed based on the application requirement for either a smooth or keyed shaft.

  • If the original shaft key kit shipped with the motor is lost or misplaced, additional shaft key kits may be ordered using the part numbers in the Shaft Key Kit.
  • Contact Kollmorgen Support and Services to order.

  • Third-party shaft keys or seals are not approved for use with these servo motors.
  • The use of third-party shaft keys or seals voids any implied or expressed warranties.
