Description

The SINAMICS drive family
Area of application
SINAMICS is the family of drives from Siemens designed for machine and plant construction.
SINAMICS offers solutions for all drive tasks:
Variants
Depending on the application, the SINAMICS range offers the ideal variant for any drive
task.
SINAMICS DCM is the DC drive belonging to the SINAMICS family. As a result of its uniform
expandability, it can handle both basic and demanding requirements for drive applications
and complementary markets.
Platform concept and Totally Integrated Automation
All SINAMICS variants are based on a platform concept. Joint hardware and software
components, as well as standardized tools for dimensioning, configuration, and
commissioning tasks ensure high-level integration across all components. SINAMICS
handles a wide variety of drive tasks with no system gaps. The different SINAMICS variants
can be easily combined with each other.
SINAMICS is part of the Siemens "Totally Integrated Automation" concept. The degree of
integration of SINAMICS with respect to engineering, data management, and communication
with the automation level means that solutions with the SIMOTION, SINUMERIK and
SIMATIC control systems can be cost-effectively implemented.
Quality management to DIN EN ISO 9001
SINAMICS is able to meet the highest quality requirements. Comprehensive quality
assurance measures in all development and production processes ensure a consistently
high level of quality.
