Introduction
SINUMERIK 840D sl – open, flexible, powerful
■
Design
SINUMERIK 840D sl BASIC with SINAMICS S120 Combi – Entry into the
premium class with up to 6 axes.
Modular and scalable
Optimum compact machine concepts can be developed by
combining the SINUMERIK 840D sl BASIC with the
SINAMICS S120 Combi compact converter.
SINUMERIK 840D sl with SINAMICS S120 – CNC performance with up to
93 axes.
As well as scalable NCU performance, the SINUMERIK 840D sl
also offers a high degree of modularity of the operator controls.
With a flexible M:N operating concept – such as the free combi-
nation of operator panels with the NCU – the
SINUMERIK 840D sl can be ideally adapted to the operating
philosophy of modern premium machine concepts.
Modular operating concept
Engineering
There is nothing to rival the openness of the SINUMERIK 840D sl
system. With SINUMERIK Integrate, the CNC control can be op-
timally adapted to the technology of the machine. SINUMERIK
Integrate also provides a high degree of freedom in production
automation. For example, the operation can be added to and
adapted, and even robots and handling systems can be inte-
grated. The openness in the CNC kernel and the drive enables
unique mechanical concepts – such as adapted control algo-
rithms and specific kinematic transformations – to be imple-
mented.
Communication at all levels
SINUMERIK 840D sl integrates itself perfectly into the Siemens
Totally Integrated Automation world with PROFINET, the leading
Industrial Ethernet standard. Totally Integrated Automation
stands for unique consistency – from field level through produc-
tion to the corporate level.
The result: Optimal interaction between all components in the
automation solution, and thus maximum transparency and avail-
ability of the production process.
