Distributed Drive System for Conveyor Applications



Siemens offers the Sinamics G115D, a compact drive system specifically designed for horizontal conveyor applications. The drive system comprises the motor, drive and gearbox in one unit and is offered in two versions-wall-mounted and motor-mounted.

The Sinamics G115D drive system features a robust design with a high IP protection class (up to IP66/UL Type 4X) and is suitable for use in harsh environments. Due to its compact dimensions, the Sinamics G115D can be installed in confined areas. The drive system can be operated reliably over a wide temperature range of -30 °C to 55 °C (-22 °F to 131 °F), enabling operation in deep freezing applications.

Sinamics G115D is suitable for applications in intra-logistics and airports, automotive and other industries. Its power ranges from 0.37 kW to 7.5 kW (1/2 HP to 10 HP) for wall-mount applications and 0.37 kW to 4 kW (1/2 HP to 5 HP) for motor-mounted applications. The drive system can be put into operation quickly and with comprehensive integration into the Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) portal including Startdrive commissioning software or the Sinamics Smart Access Module (SAM) web-server for WiFi setup and diagnostics.

To be prepared for digital transformation and to enable Cloud-based analysis, Sinamics G115D is integrated into the entire MindConnect portfolio and is compatible with MindSphere applications such as Analyze MyDrives.

With Profisafe, the Sinamics G115D has Safety Integrated in the form of STO (Safe Torque Off) SIL2, which standardizes and facilitates the certification process. For flexibility in terms of installation, service and maintenance, the solution is equipped with a plug-in connector and flexible connection possibilities. The device is particularly suitable for interaction with Simatic controllers such as the Simatic S7-1200 or Simatic ET200 for motion control.
