SIMOTION D - Drive-based

Zoom

With SIMOTION D, the SIMOTION functionality is integrated directly in the control unit of the SINAMICS S120 drive system. This results in the total system, consisting of controller and drive, being very compact and especially fast to respond. SIMOTION D is supplied as a single-axis or multi-axis system in various power versions, which guarantees a very high degree of scalability and flexibility.

• Cost-effective through the integration of motion control, technology and PLC functionality directly in the drive
• Compact construction
  to reduce the space required in the cabinet
• Fast to respond
  through the elimination of interfaces

Because of the compact construction and the integration in the drive, the SIMOTION D is particularly suitable for:

• Compact machines
• Distributed automation concepts,
  e.g. for machines with large numbers of axes
• Modular machines, also as a complement to SIMOTION P or SIMOTION C
• For time-critical demands on axis couplings
