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.
Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) with SINAMICS S120
Apart from SIMATIC, SIMOTION and SINUMERIK, SINAMICS is one of the core components
of TIA. It is thus possible to assign parameters, program and commission all components in the
automation solution with the Startdrive or STARTER commissioning tool using a standardized
engineering platform and without any system transitions (seamless engineering). The system-
wide data management functions ensure consistent data and simplify archiving of the entire
plant project.
From V14, the Startdrive commissioning tool is an integral element of the TIA platform.
SINAMICS S120 supports communication via PROFINET and PROFIBUS DP.
Communication via PROFINET
This Ethernet-based bus enables control data to be exchanged at high speed via
PROFINET IO with IRT or RT and makes SINAMICS S120 a suitable choice for integration in
high-performance multi-axis applications. At the same time, PROFINET also uses standard IT
mechanisms (TCP/IP) to transport information, e.g. operating and diagnostic data, to higher-
level systems. This makes it easy to integrate into an IT corporate network.
Communication via PROFIBUS DP
This bus provides a high-performance, system-wide and integrated communication network
which links all automation components of the automation solution:
● HMI (operator control and monitoring)
● Control
● Drives and I/O
