Sinamics G115D Siemens designed its Sinamics G115D drive system to provide a highly efficient motor, low-profile drive and gearbox all in a single unit for horizontal conveyor applications. The robust system meets IP66 and UL Type 4X standards for electronic component resistance to dust and moisture. It arrives pre-commissioned from the factory, is ready to run out of the box, can be installed in either a motor-mount or a wall-mount configuration and is appropriate for OEM and retrofit applications.
What’s new? The Sinamics G115D.
Benefits Flexibility and scalability. The motor-mounted version accommodates connections from three sides to work around space limitations, and it can be used as a replacement or retrofit in instances where only the drive is defective, but the motor is still operational. Either version can be adapted to horizontal conveyor lines, turntables, traveling trolleys, sortation systems and other equipment. The drive is also integrated into Siemens’ MindConnect portfolio of data-transfer devices and its MindSphere Industrial Internet of Things platform, enabling smart factory capabilities for the Sinamics G115D.
