STEP 7
Latest version of the TIA-capable programming software in the SIMATIC S7 PLC family and
successor to STEP 5.
Terminal block
Insulating part comprised of one or more terminals, insulated from one another, for mounting
on a strip.
Torque
A variable that produces a rotary motion. In an electric motor, the torque is transmitted by the
rotating motor shaft. Torque, measured in Newton meters (Nm), is the product of moment
arm multiplied by force. This "lever" multiplied by the speed determines the motor rating.
Totally Integrated Automation (TIA)
Hierarchically structured automation and process control system, reaching from the plant
control and production management levels down to the field level.
Totally Integrated Power (TIP)
Integrated concept developed by Siemens Industry for electrical power distribution to and in
non-residential and industrial buildings. It extends through all phases of a power distribution
project – from the initial investment decision through planning to installation and operation.
WinCC
SIMATIC WinCC is a process visualization or SCADA system (PC based HMI system) for
visualizing and controlling processes, production flows, machines and equipment in all
industries – from simple single-user systems through to distributed multi-user systems with
redundant servers and remote solutions with web clients. At the same time, WinCC acts as
an information hub for company-wide vertical integration (process visualization and platform
for IT and business integration).
WinCC flexible
SIMATIC WinCC flexible is designed for applications directly at the machine, ranging from
PC-based HMI solutions for single-user systems featuring WinCC flexible Runtime through
to SIMATIC HMI operator panels. The WinCC flexible family also includes integrated and
scalable configuration tools for configuring WinCC flexible Runtime for PCs as well as
SIMATIC HMI devices.
