SIMOTION D can be used optimally wherever

• the SINAMICS S120 drive family is used
• the Motion Control and PLC functionality are directly executed in the drive (SINAMICS S120)
• a compact, space-saving construction is required
• high performance is required for Motion Control and highspeed I/O
• high electromagnetic compatibility and a high resistance to shock and vibration are required due to harsh ambient conditions
• modular machine concepts with high-speed isochronous coupling are required

The flexible solution for modular machine concepts

SIMOTION D optimally supports the implementation of modular machine concepts in which single-axis drives and highperformance multi-axis drives have to be combined:

• SIMOTION D410-2 (blocksize format) is the most cost-effective solution for the compact design of drives, ranging from single units to small-scale multi-axis solutions with typically 2 to 3 axes (max. 8 axes).
• SIMOTION D4x5-2 (booksize format) performs the open-loop and closed-loop control functions for multi-axis groups with up to 128 axes.

Important applications include:

• Packaging machines
• Plastic and rubber processing machines
• Presses, wire-drawing machines
• Textile machines
• Printing machines
• Wood, glass, ceramics and stone working machines
• Converting
• Handling devices

Due to the increasing use of servo and vector drives, these machines require a high degree of integration of PLC, Motion Control and technology functions.

With SIMOTION D4x5-2 selected Control Units are also available as SIPLUS version for use under extremely difficult environmental conditions (e.g. in toxic atmospheres).
