General Information
1.1 System Overview
The SINAMICS V60 servo drive system is a new drive system developed by Siemens. It's designed for
use with a Siemens SINUMERIK 801 or SINUMERIK 802S base line numerical controller to control the
operation of a CNC turning or milling machine, and it can also be connected with a Siemens SIMATIC
PLC. Siemens delivers to each customer the whole drive system instead of only one drive device, which
includes: a drive module (CPM60.1, available in 4 A, 6 A, 7 A or 10 A version), an AC servo motor (type
1FL5, with or without a built-in brake and with or without a key ) and all necessary cables (for power,
encoder and brake, with a length of 5m or 10m).
