6AU1445-0AA00-0AA0 - Motion control system - SIEMENS

Overview

SIMOTION D is a compact, drive-based version of SIMOTION based on the SINAMICS S120 drives family.

The SIMOTION D Control Units are available in the following variants:

• SIMOTION D410-2 are compact Control Units for single-axis applications with multi-axis option. The Control Units are available in variants D410-2 DP and D410-2 DP/PN and are snapped onto the SINAMICS S120 Power Modules in blocksize format.

• SIMOTION D4x5-2 are Control Units for multi-axis applications in the SINAMICS S120 booksize format and are available in the following performance variants:

- SIMOTION D425-2 DP and D425-2 DP/PN Control Units (BASIC performance) for up to 16 axes

- SIMOTION D435-2 DP and D435-2 DP/PN Control Units (STANDARD Performance) for up to 32 axes

- SIMOTION D445-2 DP/PN Control Unit (HIGH performance) for up to 64 axes

- SIMOTION D455-2 DP/PN Control Unit (ULTRA-HIGH performance) for up to 128 axes or applications with very short control cycles

This fine scalability ensures a quick response to changing requirements in automation without having to change the system.

System concept

With SIMOTION D, the PLC, the Motion Control and technology functions as well as the SINAMICS S120 drive software run on a shared control hardware. The IEC 61131-3-compliant PLC integrated in SIMOTION D means that the system is not just capable of controlling sequences of motions, but the entire machine can also be controlled with a single compact unit. Depending on the SIMOTION D platform, HMI devices can be operated on the PROFINET, Ethernet or PROFIBUS interfaces for operator control and monitoring. Functions such as remote maintenance, diagnostics and teleservice can also be used via these interfaces.

Benefits

• Cost-effective thanks to the integration of PLC, Motion Control and technology functions directly in the drive

• Employs the innovative SINAMICS S120 design • Compact design reduces control cabinet size

• Ideally suited to modular and distributed machine concepts

• User-friendly operation

• Variable networking via a wide range of communication interfaces:

- D410-2 DP, D4x5-2 DP: Industrial Ethernet and PROFIBUS DP onboard

- D410-2 DP/PN, D4x5-2 DP/PN: PROFINET IO, Industrial Ethernet and PROFIBUS DP on board

• Powerful thanks to a range of technology functions

• Very simple engineering, from drive commissioning to openloop control and Motion Control applications

• Easy to service thanks to CompactFlash card, which can be easily replaced and contains all data (programs, data, drive parameters)

• Very fast response because the interfaces between PLC and Motion Control are no longer required

Application

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 costeffective 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.
