• Fail-safe SIMATIC CPU 317TF-3 PN/DP with integral technology/motion control functionality
• Spare-part-compatible successor to the CPU 317TF-2 DP (Article No. 6ES7317-6TF14-0AB0)
• With full functionality of the standard CPU 317-2 PN/DP and CPU 317F-2 PN/DP (except for CBA)
• For cross-industry automation tasks in series machine, special machine and plant construction
• Ideal for synchronized motion, such as coupling to a virtual/real master, gear synchronization, cam disk, path interpolation, or print mark compensation
• 3D path interpolation with different kinematics
• Position and pressure-regulated hydraulic axes
• Used as central controller in production lines with central and distributed I/O
• With integrated I/O for high-speed technology functions (e.g. camming, reference point acquisition)
• PROFIBUS DP (DRIVE) interface for isochronous connection of drive components
• PROFINET interface with 2-port switch
• PROFINET IO controller for operating distributed I/O on PROFINET
• One common S7 user program for control and motion control tasks (no additional programming language necessary for motion control)
• "S7 Technology" option package required
• "S7 Distributed Safety" option package required (version V4.2 SP3 and higher)

SIMATIC Micro Memory Card (8 MB) required for operation of the CPU.
