Merging performance and modularity

SIMOTION, the proven high-end motion control system, features optimal performance for all machine concepts as well as maximum modularity. With SCOUT TIA, you can rely on a consistent engineering that is integrated in the Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal). Drive-integrated SINAMICS safety functions are of course also available for your customized safety concepts. 

 

With the new software versions, SIMOTION supports object-oriented programming (OOP), the OPC UA communication protocol, as well as user program tests in the engineering without hardware. Thereby, SIMOTION further optimizes its benefits with regard to modularity, openness, and efficient software development.

Hardware platforms

SIMOTION hardware platforms

To ensure that you have free rein for your application, you can select from three hardware platforms. You decide which one is the best fit for your machine. 

 

The individual hardware platforms all have the same system properties; the functionality and engineering are identical in each platform. This is an advantage especially when it comes to modular machines and systems with mixed topologies.
