Platform concept and Totally Integrated Automation

All SINAMICS versions are based on a platform concept. Joint hardware and software
components, as well as standardized tools for design, configuration, and commissioning
tasks ensure high-level integration across all components. SINAMICS handles a wide variety
of drive tasks with no system gaps. The different SINAMICS versions can be easily
combined with each other.
SINAMICS is part of the Siemens "Totally Integrated Automation" concept. Integrated
SINAMICS systems covering configuration, data storage, and communication at automation
level, ensure low-maintenance solutions with SIMATIC, SIMOTION, and SINUMERIK.
