PLAST 2012 was an occasion for SIEMENS to reveal its capabilities to manage the entire Lifecycle of plastics processing machines as a sole partner.
The Drive Technologies Division presented a wide range of solutions at the show, developed for applications where dedicated functionalities are required, ideal for extruders and injection moulding, blow moulding, and thermoforming machines.
Additionally, the mechatronic support system makes it possible to test and make appropriate modifications during the preliminary design phase, thus reducing design and development costs and moving directly to the machinery construction stage.
Among the main developments, the SIEMENS Drive Technologies Division introduced the latest range of Sinamics S and Sinamics G drives at PLAST 2012. These high performance, low cost drives feature IP54 protection level and regenerative feedback into the line supply.
