Cost-effective - many integrated functions to reduce machine costs

Integrated control modes

Pulse train input position control mode (PTI), internal position control mode (IPos) with traversing block or Modbus, speed control mode and torque control are all integrated in the SINAMICS V90.

The drive has various integrated control modes to address a wide range of applications.

Integrated PROFINET – the industrial Ethernet standard for automation

SINAMICS V90 PROFINET version features a PROFINET interface, enabling real-time transmission of user/process data and diagnostic data with a single cable.

This solution offers wide-ranging functions with reduced complexity.

Integrated positioning function

• Positioning function is integrated in the drive. Target positions and respective speeds can be stored in the drive during commissioning or changed via communication.
• Absolute or relative positioning
• Rotary or linear axes
• Referencing in the drive

Point-to-point positioning possible using a PLC without positioning functionality.

Integrated braking resistor for all frame sizes

• All frame sizes have an integrated braking resistor to dissipate the regenerative power for fast braking.
• Most applications can be realized without an additional braking resistor.

Integrated holding brake switch (SINAMICS V90, 400 V version)

• Integrated holding brake switch – the brake can be directly connected to the drive if a motor with holding brake is used.
• Holding brake can be connected without requiring an external relay (only for SINAMICS V90, 400 V version).

Easy to use - Simple tuning and quick commissioning

Easy servo tuning and machine optimization

The system can be automatically optimized using the auto tuning function and automatic suppression of machine resonances.
Simply plug & play, no in-depth servo know-how required.

Easy commissioning using the SINAMICS V-ASSISTANT engineering tool

Graphic user interface guides the user when setting application-specific parameters; intuitive drive and motor status check; integrated trace and measuring functionality.

SINAMICS V-ASSISTANT makes commissioning and diagnostics quick and easy.

Simple connection to a control system

• Two-channel pulse train for position setpoint, one exclusively for 5 V differential (RS422 standard), one for 24 V single ended signal (for pulse train version)
• Standard RS485 interface supports USS and Modbus RTU (pulse train version)
• Industrial Ethernet standard PROFINET with PROFIdrive (PROFINET version)

Standard interface makes it easy to connect the drive with PLCs and motion controller.

Easy, all from a single source

• Predefined drive/motor bundles and accessories, easy to select
• Tested with SIMATIC PLC/HMI and ready-to-run application examples for connecting a SINAMICS V90 drive to a controller
• Different application examples can be downloaded free of charge from the Online Support Portal

Parameter cloning

SINAMICS V90 servo drives are equipped with a standard SD card slot (400 V version) and a Micro SD card slot (200 V version), so that parameter settings can be easily transferred between drive devices.
Efficient commissioning of machine series.
