Synchronous Drive of Two Motors with S7-1500 & SINAMICS V90 | Part 2

2026-08-23 1 Dailymotion

In this video (Part 2) I show you how to set up synchronized motion of two motors using Technology Objects in TIA Portal.

This is a continuation of my previous video:
“Synchronous motor control with SINAMICS-V90 and S7-1500”

In this part we will:
• Add a second SINAMICS V90 drive
• Configure the PROFINET network and topology
• Create a Synchronous Axis Technology Object
• Configure the slave drive with V-ASSISTANT
• Use MC_GearIn for electronic gearing
• Understand the difference between MC_GearIn, MC_GearInPos and MC_CamIn
• Download the project, go Online, perform homing and start synchronized movement
