Entries

  • in AC Drives

    Siemens offers a variety of low and medium voltage AC drives. Low voltage AC drives have a horsepower rating ranging from 0.5 to 800 HP, and they have a voltage rating ranging from 200 to 600 V. Medium voltage AC drives have horsepower ratings ranging from 300 to 160,000 HP, and they have voltage ratings ranging from 1.8 to 14.4 kV. Other features include: intuitive HMI, exceptional reliability, precise process control, increased production efficiency, etc.

     

  • in Absolute Encoders

  • in Cables

    Siemens makes Motion-Connect cable systems for open-loop control and driving automated machinery, with types for linear motors, cable drag for processing and production machines, oil resistant, and fixed cable routing.
  • in DC Drives

    Siemens manufactures DC master drives that feature a power range of 5 to 24,000 HP and rated DC current of 15 to 3,000A. The drives are used in a number of applications including rolling mills, cross cutters and shears, wire drawing machine, extruders and kneaders, metal presses, elevator and crane systems, cableways and lifts, mine hoists, and test stand drives.

  • in Drives

    Siemens offers high performance drive systems including standalone AC drives and multi-axis drives (common DC bus); servo drives like the SINAMICS S110 with a power range from 0.12 kW to 90kW; and vector control, and machine position drives for synchronous and induction motors. Siemens' Simovert MASTERDRIVES AC drives are completely uniform from 1HP to 5000 HP, with typical applications for elevators, centrifuges, presses, etc.

  • in Encoders

    Siemens offers SIMODRIVE sensor incremental encoders with various electrical interfaces, e.g. RS 422 (TTL), HTL or analog signals with 1 VPP, available for the interfaces of the higher-level control. Versions are also available for different operating voltages. Their SIMODRIVE sensor absolute encoders are available with SSI (synchronous serial interface) or EnDat, or PROFIBUS; single-turn and multiturn.
  • in Incremental Encoders

    Siemens offers SIMODRIVE sensor incremental encoders, with equidistant track divisions with a preset number of increments and a zero track with a standard reference mark. SIMODRIVES are also available in a range of operating voltages.

  • in Linear Motors

    Siemens linear direct drive precision motors are designed for linear traversing systems. 1FN motors are available in water or natural cooling, in peak or constant load ratings.

  • in Motion Control Cards

    Siemens manufactures motion control cards for feed-drive axes in permanently energized synchronous motor technology, for feed-drive axes with hydraulic linear drives, and for main spindle drive axes in 1PH asynchronous or in permanently energized 1FE1 synchronous motor technology.
  • in Motors

    Siemens offers torque and linear direct drive motors. Torque motors have a maximum torque of 8040 lb-ft, a maximum rated power of 510 hp, and a maximum rated speed of 800 rpm. Linear direct drive motors have an maximum overload capability of 2,5 x FN, a maximum speed of up to 2795 ft/min, and a maximum force of 1890 N.

  • in Spindle Motors

    Siemens offers high performance induction and main spindle motors. These motors are a preferred choice for industrial applications due to their rugged construction, their absence of brushes, and the ability to control the motor speed. They are compact, have a high-power density, and are maintenance-free. In particular, the 1PH8 high-performance induction and main spindle motors have a maximum speed of up to 20,000 RPM, a maximum rated torque of 12,415 Nm, and a maximum shaft height of 355 mm. Special features include: force-ventilated or water cooled, absolute or incremental encoders, keyed or plain shaft, vertical or horizontal mounting, etc.

  • in Torque Motors

    Siemens offers direct drive torque motors in two configurations: 1FW3 and 1FW6. These motors are permanent-magnet synchronous torque motors that work in applications with low driving speed and high torque. The compact 1FW3 is a water-cooled motor available in IP rating 54 with a high overload capacity (up to 2.5 times rated torque) and a wide hollow shaft allowing new and innovative machine designs. It has a maximum rated speed of 800 RPM, and a static torque of up to 5275 lb-ft. The built-in 1FW6, also water-cooled, is rated for IP 23 and offers a high overload capability of up to two times rated torque. The 1FW6 has a maximum rated speed of 650 RPM, and a maximum torque of up to 8040 lb-ft.

  • in Variable Frequency/Adjustable Speed Drives

    Siemens makes variable frequency drives including low voltage AC drives from 0.12 to 4500kW/0.16-6000HP, DC drives operating at 230 to 950VAC/7.5 to 10,728HP/6.3-8MW, and medium voltage AC drives.
