Siemens recently introduced a new servo drive offering for North American industry. With the new SINAMICS S200 servo drive, consisting of a SINAMICS S200 drive and a SIMOTICS S-1FL2 motor with standard or flexible cable options, Siemens brings a new level of motion control to the single machine market and to the network.
This new servo package extends the SINAMICS drive and offers a wide range of applications in the standard servo market. The pulse train version allows an additional positioning axis to be easily connected to the integrated positioner on a wide range of embedded machines. There is now the possibility of a dynamic network for traffic management, ie The SIMATIC PLC expands its system capabilities in the PROFINET version. With a power range up to 7kW, including low, medium and high inertia offerings, 1FL2 permanent magnet motors with 17- or 21-bit encoders boost performance and meet a wide range of standard servo needs.
Simple adjustment is via the electronic board on the 1FL2 engine and the one button adjustment on the S200 gearbox. An integrated braking resistor and an integrated holding brake control complete the S200 servo functions. Coated printed circuit boards (3C2) in S200 and IP65 motors with a metal joint ensure high durability. There is also internal voltage protection.
In order to meet the user requirements of machine manufacturers or the development of machine user systems, the Startdrive software is offered with integrated integration into a web server or a Siemens TIA portal. The simple implementation of the SINAMICS S200 drive system in machines for worldwide use is guaranteed by universal standards and certification compatibility.
SINAMICS S200 is part of the SINAMICS DriveSim Basic model and allows users to create a digital binary of the communication between the drive and the PLC during the engineering phase to ensure correct sizing and operation of the devices used.
In terms of cybersecurity, the SINAMICS S200 for network connectivity has built-in security as standard, providing advanced communication, integrity and authenticity checks to protect against tampered settings, and the drivers provide user administration and access control (UMAC). ). TIA Portal.
Applications for the new SINAMICS S200 transmission system range from the emerging battery market and other E-OEM segments to packaging, woodworking equipment, solar panel manufacturing and more.
