Controller

The Simatic CPU 317TF-2DP controller from the Siemens Industry Automation Division implements motion control, safety and standard tasks in one device. The technology controller utilizes PLCopen-compatible motion control blocks and is suitable for coupled motion sequences of multiple axes. Possible applications range from controlled single-axis positioning to complex, synchronized sequences of motion, for example geared synchronous motion, curve synchronization, or print mark correction. The synchronous axes can be coupled to a virtual master or a real master. For safety-oriented applications, the controller fulfills the high safety requirements according to the relevant standards EN 954-1 up to Cat. 4, IEC 62061 up to SIL 3, and EN ISO 13849-1 up to PL e.
