The drive control supports servo control (for a highly dynamic response), vector control (for
maximum torque accuracy) and
V/f
control.
Note
With
the SIZER configuration tool, you can easily configure the SINAMICS S120 drive family
including SIMOTION.
It provides you with support for selecting and dimensioning the components required for a
motion control task.
You can also determine the possible number of axes and the resulting load with SIZER in
accordance with your performance requirements.
Hardware components
As
the central hardware, SIMOTION D uses the SIMOTION D4x5 as a Control Unit consisting
of the SIMOTION runtime system and the SINAMICS drive control. The Control Unit uses the
SINAMICS Integrated drive with various SINAMICS S120 drive modules (line and motor
modules) to perform open-loop and closed-loop control of the axis grouping. A range of
additional SINAMICS S120 components, such as SMx encoder systems or terminal modules
can be connected via DRIVE‑CLiQ. With a few exceptions (e.g. no basic positioner EPOS, no
basic operator panel BOP20, etc.), the drive control integrated in SIMOTION D has the same
control characteristics and performance features as the SINAMICS S120 CU320 Control Unit.
The EPOS functionality is provided by the SIMOTION technology functions. The functionality
of SIMOTION D can be expanded with the distributed I/O via PROFIBUS or with the CBE30
Ethernet communication board via PROFINET IO.
The following figure shows a typical SIMOTION D axis grouping.
