The move towards electric automation technology is not without its challenges. As well as extensive knowledge of electrics and software, you also need a relatively large budget – so it is no wonder that the benefits of electric automation have so far remained reserved for complex motion requirements. This is now changing: our Simplified Motion Series gives you an automation solution that bridges the gap between easy-to-install pneumatics and smart electric automation. Make your production more efficient: simply with plug and work.
The first video shows you the functions of simple electric automation. The second video provides a simple explanation of everything you need to know about the Simplified Motion Series. And the third video explains how to use the Solution Finder to design your solution step by step in one tool.
Pneumatics continues to be the ideal choice for simple movement and positioning tasks. However, electric automation provides you with a continuous flow of information from the workpiece to the controller and the cloud, so you can reduce commissioning times, make production more cost-efficient and manage shorter product life cycles.
The Simplified Motion Series is the perfect solution for this. It consists of different electromechanical components with an application-optimised combination of motor and servo drive, the so-called integrated drive. You can commission the system quickly and easily, without an external servo drive. The drives are ideal for simple movements between two mechanical end positions, including an intermediate position, without sacrificing optimised motion characteristics, gently cushioned travel into the end position or simplified press-fitting and clamping functions.
