Elk Grove Village, Illinois – Simotics S-1FG1 servo geared motors, designed for use with the Sinamics S120 drive system, include high efficiency and low torsional backlash for precise, dynamic motion sequences and are available in helical, parallel shaft, bevel, and helical worm gearboxes with up to 25 transmission ratios. The helical gearing of the gearboxes reduces noise and offers high efficiency.
With its highly integrated functionality and scalable number of axes, the S120 drives are suitable for use in a number of demanding motion control applications. The high-performance single and coordinated multi-axis drives with servo control enables ideal solutions for an increase in overall line productivity and flexibility.
The Sinamics S120 drive system is available in blocksize and booksize hardware types for use with the servo geared motors. The power units or motor modules in booksize format have been redesigned in the 3A to 30A range. Power units with a triple overload capability and the integration of the motor connection system into the motor module save a considerable amount of space in both height and width in the control cabinet. The newly developed connection method allows fast, easy and reliable assembly and wiring, while the optimized shielding design and improved thermal separation between power semi-conductor and electronics also ensure greater ruggedness.
The small diameter of the plug-on pinion inserted into the motor shaft enables the first gear stage to render a high transmission ratio. In turn, this means that a two-stage gearbox can be used for many applications as an alternative to a more costly three-stage unit.
