Engineered for demanding industrial environments, the SL36 excels in applications requiring sub-micron precision. A German automotive parts manufacturer reported achieving 0.005mm positioning accuracy in their CNC machining center after upgrading to this drive. Its compact 250mm width allows seamless integration into tight spaces, while the IP65 rating ensures reliable operation in dusty factory floors or humid packaging lines. Commonly paired with Rexroth’s IndraControl systems, this drive supports complex motion profiles in robotics and semiconductor manufacturing equipment.
What sets the SL36 apart is its triple communication protocol support – Ethernet, Profibus, and Profinet – enabling hybrid network architectures. The 400Hz frequency range delivers exceptional dynamic response, crucial for high-speed bottling lines where acceleration rates exceed 5m/s². Thermal management features include an internal heatsink with temperature monitoring, preventing performance degradation even at 55°C ambient temperatures. While not featuring hardware redundancy, its diagnostic capabilities include 200+ fault codes with timestamp logging for predictive maintenance.
In practical applications, the SL36 demonstrates remarkable adaptability – one textile machinery builder successfully used it for both high-torque winding and precision needle positioning in the same machine. The combination of 7.5kW output with Profinet IRT communication achieves 1μs synchronization accuracy across multiple axes. When compared to similar drives in its class, the SL36’s 10kg weight-to-power ratio stands out, providing industrial-grade durability without excessive mechanical support requirements.
