The performance-optimized and easy-to-operate servo drive system

The system is made up of the SIMOTICS S-1FL6 servo motor and the SINAMICS V90 servo drive, which can operate in single- and three-phase networks with power outputs ranging from 0.05 to 7.0 kW. It is readily integrated using Modbus RTU, PROFINET, USS, or PTI. The SINAMICS V90 system focuses on dynamic motion and processing while allowing for the cost-effective implementation of basic motion control tasks.

The best servo drive option for motion control applications is SINAMICS V90.

The servo drive system comprises the SINAMICS V90 servo converter and the SIMOTICS S-1FL6 servo motor. For operation in single-phase and three-phase networks, diverse converter frame sizes and motor shaft heights cover a wide range of applications with the focus on dynamic motion and processing – for example positioning, conveying and winding.

  Rapid acceleration and braking, with smooth operation in order to ensure high machine productivity

Choosing your servo drive system step-by-step

We walk you through every step of setting up your servo drive system, from choosing the best converter and servo motor for your needs to connecting the necessary cables and connectors to selecting the ideal controller.

The appropriate servo motor

Choose the right servo motor for the job at hand.

• Permanent magnet-excited synchronous motors, like the SIMOTICS S-1FL6 servo motor, operate without external cooling; their surface dissipates heat.
• Quick-release connectors enable quick and easy motor installation.
• Combining these motors with SINAMICS V90 frequency converters creates a high-functionality servo system.
• The motors offer a threefold overload capability, enhancing their performance and reliability.

The optimum converter
