3.1 Highlights and bene󹪝ts

Overview

The SIMOTICS M-1PH8 motor series, referred to as 1PH8 in the following, is a motor generation

developed for universal implementation in plants and machines with motion control

applications. The motors are based on a 󹪞exible, modular principle and are available as

induction, synchronous-reluctance and compact synchronous variants, with either forced

ventilation or water cooling.

In comparison to the freely selectable performance of vector and servo control with

the SINAMICS S120 drive system, it is possible to select between induction, synchronous-

reluctance or synchronous variants in the case of the new SIMOTICS M-1PH8 motor series.

Thanks to this 󹪞exible interplay between converter and motor, it is now even easier to

implement applications which involve

• extreme duty cycles,

• short rise times,

• high precision with respect to speed, torque and positioning.

The motors have been designed speci󹪝cally for use in conjunction with the SINAMICSS120

drive system. Depending on the control requirements, appropriate encoder systems are

available for the motors for sensing the motor speed and indirect position.

Encoder systems for C-axis operation are also available for machine tools.

1PH8 motors are available in two di󹪜erent cooling types:

• Forced ventilation

• Water cooling
