■
Overview
SIMOTION D4x5-2 are drive-based Control Units for multi-axis
systems. The individual variants essentially differ in terms of their
PLC and Motion Control performance, memory size and
interfaces. The main distinguishing features are:
• Available
– Not available
The SIMOTION D425-2, D435-2, D445-2 and D455-2 Control
Units feature PLC and Motion Control performance (open-loop
control and Motion Control) for up to 16, 32, 64 or 128 axes, as
required.
The integrated drive control enables each D4x5-2 Control Unit to
operate up to 6 servo, 6 vector or 12
V/f
axes.
The integrated drive control is based on the drive control of a
SINAMICS S120 CU320-2 Control Unit (firmware version V4.x)
and supports servo control (for a highly dynamic response),
vector control (for maximum torque accuracy) and
V/f
control.
SIMOTION D435-2 DP/PN and D455-2 DP/PN are also available
as SIPLUS version for use under harsh environmental
conditions, e.g. in toxic atmospheres (for details refer to
technical specifications). As BasedOn products, the SIPLUS
versions have the same functionality as the standard modules
and are configured in exactly the same way.
Extension of the drive computing performance
The Motion Control performance of a SIMOTION D4x5-2 can be
utilized in full by expanding the computing performance at the
drive in two different ways:
•
SINAMICS S120 Control Units (e.g. CU320-2) can be
connected together with further SINAMICS S120 drive
modules via PROFINET or PROFIBUS.
•
The SIMOTION CX32-2 Controller Extension can be
connected over DRIVE-CLiQ. This module is extremely
compact and can control up to 6 servo, 6 vector or 12
V/f
axes.
