Converting
■
Overview
Converting – unwinding, cutting, stamping, sealing, laminating,
printing, coating, crosscutting, winding, … – many functions that
are used in a broad range of industrial sectors. Sectors such as
paper production, the printing industry, the manufacture of
cables and wires and the textile and packaging industries, to
name but a few.
Siemens is offering complete, standardized drive and automa-
tion systems that are capable of performing all of these tasks.
These range from an extensive spectrum of motors (asynchro-
nous and synchronous motors, torque and linear motors, reluc-
tance motors) to single-axis and multi-axis drive controllers, from
simple vector converters to highly sophisticated multi-axis sys-
tems with integral motion controller, SIMOTION Motion Control
system, safety controller and bus system up to the market-lead-
ing SIMATIC S7 automation controller in variants 300, 400, 1200
and 1500. The portfolio is rounded off by a large selection of
operator panels and other system components such as filters
and reactors.
But it is precisely those highly technological standards that
different sectors demand of converting functions that are fulfilled
in many cases by the technology functions included in the
Converting Toolbox developed by Siemens.
The fully operational, tested standard functions integrated in the
Siemens Converting Toolbox can be used to reduce the amount
of time and money that need to be invested in all phases of the
machine lifecycle.
