siemens servos and drives

[vlam3327]

hi, im new to this fourm,

and i am about to build a 3x6 ft extrusion based cnc that i plan on using to mill 6061-t6 aluminum and would like to know your thoughts on the siemens servo motors and drives. Specifically the SINAMICS s110 drive and the 1fk7060-5af71-1ua0 servo motor with a power rating of 1.48 kW package that i saw available for 1199 euros. Also i will be using this in a ball screw setup and this is my first extrusion based builds, so if possible can any of you send me some tips on this type of cnc.

Thanks, Victor

The siemen motors & drives are good, But how are you going to run them what control & software are you going to use, if Mach3 then they need to be able to take step/dir signals, If they do not, then you should look at Dmm servo motors & drives

i am planning to be using the SINUMERIK 828D for the control but i still not sure about which software i will be using as i do not yet know about the step/dir signals.

If your plan is to use the SINUMERIK 828D control,then you will be using there software that suits/goes with that control

As I have told you before I do not SELL the DMM servo system, I use there system along with other servo systems, With what Valm3327 is building the DMM system is a very good fit

If you want to use SINUMERIK 828D the drives would be the SINAMICS S120 series.
