For simple positioning tasks, e.g. revolvers, loading systems or tool magazines that require no coordination with the CNC part program, it is possible to connect two auxiliary axes to the SINUMERIK 828D by means of PROFINET using a SINAMICS CU310-2 PN or CU320-2 PN. The Safety Integrated basic functions of the SINAMICS system can be utilized for these CNC auxiliary axes. The Safety Integrated basic functions are selected by hardware and in 2 channels via terminals on the CU310-2 PN/CU320-2 PN and the Motor Module.

A partially automated acceptance test is provided in SINUMERIK Operate for acceptance testing Safety Integrated functions. All measured data and traces are logged and can be printed out in an acceptance report.
