To maximize production and minimize waste, you need to cut glass ribbon optimally for specific orders. In these situations, precision, speed and flexibility are highly important.

Whether you need cutting speeds of 210 m/min or precision to less than one millimeter, meeting these requirements is easy with our motion control solution,  SIMOTION for cutting . We developed SIMOTION specifically for very dynamic applications, and it creates ideal conditions. You can choose between different hardware platforms: either controller-based (SIMOTION C), industrial PC-based (SIMOTION P) or an especially compact version that is integrated in the drive (SIMOTION D). In all three, logic and motion control tasks are projected in the same engineering tool, allowing you to easily make changes. From the user-friendly basic application to the integrated high-end system, SIMOTION's hardware and software are completely scalable. Due to our comprehensive approach, the solution is completely integrated into the  Totally Integrated Automation concept, the environment of SIMATIC.

SIMOTION for cutting combines all your engineering tasks – configuration, programming and parameterization – into one system. With so much flexibility in terms of hardware, you can make full use of your cutting line's potential, thereby increasing throughput and improving efficiency.
