Description
PROFIenergy is a PROFINET-based data interface for
switching off consumers centrally and with full coordina-
tion during pause times regardless of the manufacturer
or device type. Through this, the process should only be
provided with the energy that is absolutely required. The
majority of the energy is saved by the process; the
PROFINET device itself only contributes a few watts of
savings potential.
S7-1500 CPUs support the controlled positioning and
traveling of axes via S7-1500 Motion Control functions by
means of the following technology objects:
Speed-controlled axes, positioning axes, synchronized
axes, external encoders, cams, cam tracks and
measuring inputs.
Speed-controlled axis for controlling a drive with
•
speed specification
Positioning axis for position-controlled positioning of
•
a drive
Synchronous axis to interconnect with a master
•
value. The axis is synchronized to the master axis
position.
External encoder for detecting the actual position of
•
an encoder and its use as a master value for
synchronous operation
Cams, cam track for position-dependent generation
•
of switching signals
Measuring input for fast, accurate and
•
event-dependent sensing of actual positions
You program the technology objects with Motion Control
instructions according to PLCopen.
The technology CPUs of the SIMATIC S7-1500 also
support extended Motion Control functions:
Advanced synchronization functions
•
–
Synchronization with specification of the
synchronous position
–
Actual value coupling
–
Shifting of the master value at following axis
–
Camming
Cam
•
Up to 4 encoders or measuring systems as actual
•
position for position control
Controlling of kinematics, such as
•
–
Cartesian portals
–
Roller pickers
–
Delta pickers
–
SCARA
