SINAMICS S120 Synchronism Applications with DCB Extension
The synchronism applications allow position controlled axes motions.
The axes can be operated in an autarkic way or follow a leading axis
in a relative or absolute angular synchronism relation.
The Motion Control functionality is realized directly
in the SINAMICS drive system for these applications.
For optional use, a function block for the SIMATIC S7-1200/S7-1500
controller is available.
