Center height 71 - 315

SIMOTICS SD standard motor

Even in highly challenging applications, heavy duty motors on the SIMOTICS platform have consistently outperformed due to their high reliability and powerful performance.

Thanks to the use of innovative technology for manufacturing, the SIMOTICS SD series motors are one of the more well-known compact motors in the world. Modular add-on design and motor design ensure greater flexibility and less workload during installation.

For machines with frame numbers 71 – 315, you can choose one standard motor optimized for direct connection to the power grid and two motors for frequency converters, suitable for variable speed frequency conversion devices consisting of frequency converters and motors.

Product Introduction

Motors optimized for linear operation

Mature SIMOTICS SD motors with motor energy efficiency level IE4 can be used for linear operation. Compared to motors with an energy efficiency rating of IE3, using motors with an energy efficiency rating of IE4 can reduce energy demand by 3%. Thanks to the use of innovative technology for manufacturing, the SIMOTICS SD series motors are one of the more well-known compact motors in the world. For example, highly conductive materials ensure smaller rotor losses and excellent startup and switching performance. Modular installation design provides greater flexibility and less workload during the installation process.

These linear motors can not only be directly connected to the power grid for operation, but also be optionally operated according to frequency converters.

Inverter optimized motor (variable speed drive motor)

The SIMOTICS SD VSD motor is based on the SIMOTICS SD series, with a center height of 71 to 315. Therefore, the design of this motor corresponds to the corresponding linear motor - the mechanical components are the same. Ensure that the motor is suitable for the frequency converter by properly dimensioning the active components and VSD specific nameplate data. In addition, VSD motors also have a large number of linear motor models (depending on the type of structure, motor protection, junction box location, and options).

Inverter optimized asynchronous motor (VSD10)

The investment optimization system includes a SIMOTICS SD VSD10 motor and a SINAMICS inverter, which can be easily selected through samples or selection tools, and quickly debugged based on the data matrix code of predefined inverter parameters. The excellent matching of the operating conditions of the motor and frequency converter results in lower system losses, thereby improving efficiency.

Inverter optimized synchronous reluctance motor (VSD4000)

For particularly energy-saving operation, the excellent choice is to use a system consisting of SIMOTICS reluctance motors and SINAMICS converters. Magnetoresistance technology ensures exceptionally high dynamic performance and efficiency, even in the partial load range, as well as high process quality.

Advantages at a glance

High efficiency linear motor to meet various needs

The following motor series are available for heavy-duty applications: basic (mechanical engineering), performance (process industry), and Eagle (exported to NAFTA countries). Comprehensive design for all global markets.

The typical power of a linear motor with an energy efficiency rating of IE4 over the entire power range is 2.2 kW.

Suitable frequency converter motors are more compatible with SINAMICS frequency converters

The combination of motors optimized for the operation of frequency converters in asynchronous and synchronous reluctance technology and the SINAMICS drive series frequency converters forms a more matched and efficient system. Taken together, it exceeds the requirements of global MEPS. The data matrix code stamped on the motor nameplate provides predefined parameters for the frequency converter.

Energy conservation and sustainable production

Energy efficiency levels IE3 and IE4 motors achieve high energy efficiency and protect our environment. Produced according to advanced ecological standards. Impregnation and painting are solvent free

Compact design and higher power

The size of the motor usually plays an important role in machine tools. A very compact design saves space and facilitates integration in machine tools and factories.

Even in heavy duty applications, if the available space is insufficient to accommodate standard motors, increased power motors can be used. This is because these motors provide the same rated power while reducing the shaft height.

Shaft height 315 - 450

Standard SIMOTICS SD Next Generation Motors

With the next generation of SIMOTICS SD motors, a new generation of scalable low-voltage motors is ready for digitization. Thanks to its excellent performance and the additional versatility of its range of applications, this motor series ensures that it provides future-proof drive technology.

Dust and vibration do not affect the speed of this motor, nor does the harsh environment of the process industry. The optimized design of this motor supports compact dimensions and high power density. A range of standardized options and flexible junction box designs support easy integration across different factory models and applications.

SIMOTICS SD Add and SIMOTICS SD Pro provide global certification certificates. Therefore, these two motors can be used in all major regions and markets in the world. These two motors can be used as standard motors in the European Union and North America. According to IEC and EISA requirements, the electrical values of this motor are stamped on the nameplate. Like the Eagle model with a smaller shaft height, this motor represents the NEMA motor type (for motorized models, it complies with IEC). In addition, many other country specific certificates are available.
