Dynamic, coordinated Multi Axis Motion Control for Servo Drives and Hydraulics
You are looking for a cost-effective solution within a PLC? SIMATIC Technology CPUs eliminate the need to use additional hard- and software by integrating powerful technological and motion control functionality directly into the standard SIMATIC CPU. High-speed local digital I/Os and two PROFIBUS interfaces are on-board and ensure space-saving connections.
Perfect scalability by two T-CPUs - they are designed for fast, deterministic tasks allowing you to control up to 32 axis – high performant and equidistant. Both are identical in the Motion Control performance and functionality. The equidistant PROFIBUS DP (PROFIDRIVE Profile) is optimized for servo drives and permits control of high-speed processes in high quality - for retrofit purposes or hydraulics you should use the 4 channel interface module IM 174.
