Simplified Motion Series (SMS)

The Simplified Motion Series axes are electromechanical actuators designed for simple and easy wiring, commissioning, and operation, like pneumatic actuators. Movements include end-to-end positioning and pressing/clamping. Each SMS axis consist of an electromechanical actuator mounted to an integrated motor to reduce setup time and cabinet space requirements. And the SMS axes include a wide range of actuator families, with linear and rotary options, precision and dynamic options, and short or long stroke variants, which can meet a diverse set of application needs.

Commissioning

This is quick and easy and doesn't require any software, computer or other accessories, because all parameters can be set manually directly on the drive. Simplified Motion Series is then connected directly to the controller, either via digital I/O (DIO) or IO-LinkĀ®, both of which are integrated as standard.

Benefits of the Simplified Motion Series

  • A variety of actuator sizes, strokes, and types to meet your application needs
  • Integrated motor reduces the space required in your control cabinet
  • Quick and easy commissioning
  • Familiar behavior, like an pneumatic actuator
  • Easy to operate via digital I/O (DIO) or IO-LinkĀ® integrated as standard
