Design
Structure of an axis grouping with the SIMOTION D435-2
Motion Control System in the crane application
The following components comprise a SIMOTION D crane appli-
cation:
•
A SIMOTION D435-2 Control Unit, designed for open and
closed-loop control of a multi-axis drive line-up
•
One or several SIMOTION CX32-2 Controller Extensions for
more than 6 axes (see the application example "Topology of
container quay crane" in the "Hardware configuration" section)
•
Several SINAMICS S120 Motor Modules (power units)
•
Several SINAMICS DC Master Power Modules (power units)
•
Other drive components, such as
- Power supply
- Filter
- Reactor, etc.
•
The connection between SIMOTION D and the
SINAMICS S120 Motor Modules which is implemented with
DRIVE-CLiQ in a star topology to ensure axis redundancy
(see the application example "Topology of container quay
crane"
→
"Hardware configuration").
•
A CU320-2 Control Unit for open and closed-loop control of
the parallel infeed (up to 4 infeed units)
•
One or several SINAMICS S120 Line Modules (in
SIMOCRANE Basic Technology, the infeed unit is separately
controlled by the SIMATIC S7, see the application example
"Topology of container quay crane"
→
"Hardware configu-
ration").
Hardware configuration
The hardware configuration based on the example of a container
quay crane on the SIMOTION/SINAMICS platform is shown in
the figure below.
The performance of the SIMOTION D hardware allows all crane
technologies, not only Basic Technology, but also Advanced
Technology, e.g. sway control (SIMOCRANE Sway Control), to
be operated from one controller. The individual crane technolo-
gies build on each other systematically.
Additional crane technologies of SIMOCRANE are described in
Chapter 3 SIMOCRANE Advanced Technology and Chapter 4
SIMOCRANE CMS Crane Management System.
