Overview
SINAMICS S110 – the basic positioning drive for
single-axis applications
SINAMICS S110: PM340 Power Module in blocksize format with CU305
Control Unit and BOP20
SINAMICS S110 can be used in numerous applications. Typical
examples are:
•
Handling equipment
•
Feed and withdrawal devices
•
Stacking units
•
Automatic assembly machines
•
Laboratory automation
• Metalworking
•
Woodworking, glass and ceramic industries
•
Printing machines
•
Plastics processing machines
The SINAMICS S110 servo drive is designed for connection to
both synchronous servomotors and asynchronous (induction)
motors. It supports all the most popular types of encoder.
A variety of fieldbus interfaces is provided for linking the unit to
a higher-level control system. Alternatively, it can be controlled
via ±10 V and a pulse direction interface.
The so-called basic positioner (EPos) is an integral component
of SINAMICS S110. It provides a simple method of solving
positioning tasks.
Flexible in application
SINAMICS S110 is a flexible, versatile system.
Synchronous servomotors and asynchronous (induction) motors
with outputs up to 90 kW can be used to implement rotary or
linear axes. DRIVE-CLiQ motors can be connected simply by
means of the integrated DRIVE-CLiQ interface. This means that
the electronic rating plate of the motor is easy to read out, reduc-
ing the engineering time and cost involved in commissioning the
drive.
Furthermore, the SINAMICS S110 features an integrated en-
coder interface for optional use. It is capable of evaluating
HTL/TTL and SSI encoders.
In addition to pure point-to-point positioning, SINAMICS S110
naturally also offers on-the-fly changeover from continuous
operation to positioning mode in order, for example, to precisely
position objects transported randomly on a conveyor belt. Even
simple traversing profiles with different motion cycles and wait
times can be executed automatically by SINAMICS S110.
The CU305 Control Unit of the SINAMICS S110 is equipped with
an integrated communication interface for linking the inverter
to an automation system. A PROFINET, PROFIBUS or CANopen
interface can be ordered. Standardized protocols for linking to a
higher-level control are supported – the PROFIdrive profile for
positioning mode and the PROFIsafe profile for safety-related
communication.
The inverter is thus perfectly coordinated with the SIMATIC S7
automation system. The devices are linked by means of
PROFIBUS and the SIMATIC S7 uses standard function blocks
to communicate with the drive. In addition, the STARTER com-
missioning tool can be seamlessly integrated into STEP 7, the
SIMATIC's programming software.
BICO technology
Every drive contains a number of input and output variables
which can be freely and independently interconnected using
Binector Connector Technology (BICO). A binector is a logic
signal which can assume the value 0 or 1. A connector is a
numerical value, e.g. the actual speed or current setpoint.
Free function blocks
The drive can be adapted easily and precisely to a wide range
of customized requirements using the "free function blocks" inte-
grated in the CU305 Control Unit. The available range of blocks
includes simple logic blocks such as AND/OR elements, as well
as more complex devices such as smoothing elements or limit-
value monitors. All blocks can be flexibly interconnected using
BICO (Binector-Connector) technology, ensuring that signals are
processed quickly and close to the drive which helps reduce the
load on the higher-level control.
Diagnostics optimally supported by trace function
The time characteristics of input and output variables associated
with drives can be measured by the integrated trace function
and displayed using the STARTER commissioning tool. The
trace can record up to 4 signals simultaneously. Recording can
be triggered as a function of freely selectable boundary condi-
tions, e.g. the value of an input or output variable.
