Siemens 6AU1425-2AA00-0AA0 Motion Controller

Siemens 6AU1425-2AA00-0AA0 is a SIMOTION Drive-based Control Unit D425-2 DP, a programmable motion controller in the BASIC performance tier designed to coordinate multi‑axis motion in automation systems. This drive-based control unit ships with 12 digital inputs, 16 digital I/O (configurable as DI, DO, or measuring input), 4 DRIVE‑CLiQ connections, 2 PROFIBUS interfaces, 3 Ethernet ports, 2 USB ports, and 1 expansion/option slot, and it includes a dual‑fan module with a battery module and battery for field operation. In SIMOTION terms, the D425‑2 DP supports up to six servo axes with integrated drive control, enabling synchronized motion profiles across multiple axes and straightforward integration with SINAMICS S120 drives. This part serves as the central motion controller within the SIMOTION ecosystem for compact to multi‑axis machines, typically programmed and debugged with the SIMOTION software environment to execute precise, repeatable motion sequences.
