SD3
With the servo amplifier SD3 SIEB & MEYER offers a solution for complex drive tasks as high-dynamic positioning applications or servo-driven fastening and press technology. Some application fields, however, are subject to strict regulations with respect to the fieldbus system. These are among others the machine tool or the automotive industry.
The EtherCAT-master interface, integrated in the powerful platform of SD3, allows controlling external sensors, actuators or digital inputs and outputs – in addition to the regular control, drive and visualization tasks. This allows realizing complex decentralized drive solutions, which would otherwise only be possible with an additional PLC. This way hardware costs are reduced and the application programming is limited to one system.
