6AU1432-2AA00-0AA0 Siemens SIMOTION Drive-based Controller Extension CX32-2 Original Brand New

• With a width of 25 mm (0.98 in), the CX32‑2 Controller Extension requires very little space and is therefore well-suited for use in compact machines.
• The CX32‑2 Controller Extension is connected to the SIMOTION D4x5‑2 via DRIVE‑CLiQ, so high-performance, isochronous closed-loop control of the drives is possible without the need for additional modules. The communication interfaces on the SIMOTION D4x5‑2 remain available for other connections.
• The addressing of the Controller Extension is independent of the addressing on PROFINET/PROFIBUS. This is advantageous for modular machine concepts.
• Simple cabling and configuration
• The Control operation signal from an infeed connected to the SIMOTION D4x5‑2 is particularly easy to interconnect to the drives of the CX32‑2 Controller Extension.
• The CX32‑2 Controller Extension does not require its own CompactFlash card. Data is managed centrally on the CompactFlash card of the SIMOTION D4x5‑2 Control Unit. This has the following advantages:
  • Simple module replacement (no operator action required on the CX32‑2, such as memory card replacement)
  • During firmware upgrades, the CX32‑2 Controller Extension is automatically upgraded with the integrated drive of the SIMOTION D4x5‑2 Control Unit
  • Central license handling via the SIMOTION D4x5‑2

Design

The SIMOTION CX32‑2 Controller Extension is connected to the SIMOTION D4x5‑2 via DRIVE‑CLiQ.

In this way, a very compact axis grouping can be implemented, for example, with 12 servo axes.

If required, several SIMOTION CX32‑2 Controller Extensions can be operated on one SIMOTION D4x5‑2 Control Unit.

• Max. 3 CX32‑2 units on one SIMOTION D425‑2
• Max. 5 CX32‑2 units on one SIMOTION D435‑2, D445‑2 or D455‑2

In principle, a 4th or 6th CX32‑2 Controller Extension can also be connected. In this case, no drives / drive components can be connected any longer to the integrated drive control of the SIMOTION D4x5‑2. All drives must then be operated via the connected Controller Extensions. This can be useful, for example, when implementing distributed, modular machine concepts .

Additional drive controls can be implemented with SINAMICS S110/S120 Control Units via PROFINET or PROFIBUS.

Note

The SIMOTION CX32‑2 Controller Extension can only be used with SIMOTION D4x5‑2 Control Units. Operation with SIMOTION D4x5 Control Units is not possible.

The SIMOTION CX32 Controller Extension must be used for the SIMOTION D435 and D445-1 Control Units (Article No. 6SL3040-0NA00-0AA0).
