The CPU 317TF-3 PN/DP has the full functionality of the CPU 317F-2 PN/DP (except for CBA). In addition, high-performance motion control functions are available.

The programming is carried out with STEP 7 as well as the option package S7-Technology.

In S7 Technology V4.2 or higher, the following kinematics are supported:

• Cartesian (two and three-dimensional)
• Roll picker
• Scara
• Articulated arm
• Delta2D picker
• Delta3D picker
