Quick overview of SIMATIC S7-1200 G2
Following increasing requirements for technological level and tightening security standards in the industry, Siemens launched a new series of controllers SIMATIC S7-1200 G2. The price of S7-1200 G2 is the same as or lower than S7-1200 G1, which means a cost-efficient upgrade for your automation systems with more powerful CPU. Key improvements comparing to previous generation:
Performance & Scalability
SIMATIC S7-1200 G2 offers much faster program execution and full scalability within SIMATIC controller portfolio.
Efficient motion control
SIMATIC S7-1200 G2 (1) supports control of single axis but also coordinated axis and simple kinematics for moving / positioning, processing and handling applications; (2) supports the use of technology objects to control / synchronize axes, and reduce the configuration effort.
Flexible machine safety
SIMATIC S7-1200 G2 offers safety integrated CPUs and innovative cost-optimized fail-safe hardware portfolio.
Increased data transparency
SIMATIC S7-1200 G2 offers easy access to PLC data for diagnostics and analysis via NFC (Near Field Communication).
Dimensions
SIMATIC S7-1200 G2 allows achieving a more compact layout: CPUs offers the reduction of the DIN rail footprint by ~ 25%; their 8/16 Channel SM Modules save 33% and F-SM modules save 57% of DIN rail space.
