SIMATIC S7-400 EXM 438-1 6DD1607-0CA1

Overview

SIMATIC FM 458-1 DP integrated in SIMATIC S7-400

• Designed for high-performance and user-configurable closed-loop control tasks in the SIMATIC S7-400.
• Can be adapted to individual requirements as required, such as:
  Controlling, computing, closed-loop control as well as motion control. Can therefore be used flexibly for a wide variety of applications.
• Extensive library with approx. 300 function blocks:
  E.g. simple functions such as AND, ADD and OR through to complex GMC (general motion control) blocks as virtual master or gear functions.
• User-friendly graphical configuration with the SIMATIC engineering tool CFC (Continuous Function Chart) and the D7-SYS add-on software package:
  Optimum code generation by the compiler, therefore SCL is not required.
• PROFIBUS DP interface onboard.

SIMATIC FM 458-1 DP is based on more than 15 years experience with high-performance control systems and combines this know-how with the advantages of SIMATIC – the leading automation system for decades. In contrast to other function modules with static structure

Application

The FM 458-1 DP application module from the SIMATIC S7-400 system is available for mechatronic solutions with high cycle rates, especially in the production, packaging and printing machine industries.

Together with two additional plug-on expansion modules, the FM 458-1 DP permits a wide range of highly dynamic applications particularly at the drive level.

For example, torque, speed, positioning and position controls can be implemented for:

• Converter-fed DC and three-phase drives
• Winders with tension/dancer controls, coilers
• Multimotor drives, “unbreakable” electrical shaft
• Complex setpoint inputs, e.g., for cross cutters/flying saws, gearbox/motor test stands
• Hydraulic drives with high dynamic response in presses
