SIMOTION allows more flexible production procedures while reducing auxiliary production times. This is only possible with highly dynamic movement control, whose smooth and material-friendly movements also allow longer maintenance intervals.

A feeder system solution from Siemens provides

• Cost-optimized solution
  through optimally adjusting power and the number of axes

• End-to-end communication
  between all components with Totally Integrated Automation

• Open application solution
  through ready-to-use technological functions

SIMOTION offers smooth amalgamation of run-time (logic), motion, and technology functions. Feeder functions are ready to use in SIMOTION and operating screens are ready to use in ProTool/Pro or WinCC flexible, allowing engineering costs to be kept at a minimum.

This offers

• Speed-optimized movements in accordance with standardized laws of motion (VDI 2143)

• Processing via higher order polynomials and therefore improved shock and jolt behavior

• Master value link, calculation of a complex path motion

• Operating modes: Automatic, single step, continuous operation

• HMI for parameterizing the path via the "Teach-in function"

• User interface for integrating customized transformations

• Cartesian 2 or 3 axis portal

• Safety integrated, e.g. safely limited speed (SLS) during machine setup
