Motion Control<br />

SIMOTION Motion Control System<br />

Products and solutions that enhance the productivity of machines<br />

Even faster product changes in the manufacturing<br />

industry call for more flexible and<br />

easily convertible production machines. As<br />

a result of this trend, mechanical components,<br />

such as cam discs, are replaced by<br />

servo drives and the respective motion control<br />

systems. The design and engineering<br />

overhead is therefore reduced in favor of<br />

the "electrical" side, that is, programming.<br />

<strong>Siemens</strong> motion control systems (e.g. SIMOTION) take into account<br />

these more stringent requirements by providing a high degree of functionality<br />

and flexibility in conjunction with user-friendly operation<br />

thanks to Wizards and graphical programming languages. This ensures<br />

that the time and effort involved in engineering and programming can<br />

be kept to a minimum despite ever more exacting requirements. The<br />

motion control solutions offered by <strong>Siemens</strong> include controllers, PCs,<br />

and drive-based systems. SIMOTION offers automation solutions for production<br />

machines in the following industries:<br />

• Textiles<br />

• Plastics<br />

• Wood<br />

• Glass/ceramics<br />

• Metal forming technology<br />

• Packaging<br />

• Converting<br />

• Printing<br />

• Mechanical engineering<br />
