Description
The CU313A is a compact motion control unit, serving as the central coordinator for up to 8 servo or vector drives in distributed automation systems. It fits into standard 35mm DIN rail enclosures, integrating with drives via a high-speed industrial Ethernet network (PROFINET IO) and communicating with PLCs or HMIs through the same network infrastructure.
CU313A
In terms of system interaction, the CU313A processes motion commands from a higher-level controller (such as a Siemens S7 PLC) and converts them into precise drive setpoints. It supports a range of motion profiles, including point-to-point positioning, linear and circular interpolation, and electronic gearing—enabling complex sequences like synchronized conveyor tracking or contouring in machine tools. A key feature is its 1ms update cycle for drive control, ensuring rapid response to load changes or position errors. It also includes built-in safety functions (SIL 2/PL d), such as safe torque off (STO), which can quickly disable drives in emergency situations without compromising system integrity. The CU313A integrates with drive families like the SINAMICS S120, using parameterization tools to simplify setup and ensure compatibility across components.

CU313A
Main features and advantages:
CU313A
Application areas:
The CU313Aexcels in industries requiring precise motion coordination. In packaging, it synchronizes multi-axis filling lines, ensuring bottles are filled, capped, and labeled with sub-millimeter accuracy—even at speeds of 200+ units per minute. In material handling, it controls robotic arms and conveyors in logistics centers, enabling smooth product transfer between stations and reducing damage to fragile items. In machine tools, it coordinates spindle and axis movements in CNC lathes or mills, ensuring tight tolerances (±0.001mm) in precision-machined parts for aerospace or medical applications.
