For Assan Alüminyum, high availability and smooth operations of their paint roller machines is crucial. Failures can lead to unplanned downtimes and potential consequential losses. That's why Assan Alüminyum was looking for a suitable service partner, who was able to minimize the planned and unplanned downtimes by identifying weak points in their existing drive system.

Furthermore, the customer needed a partner who was able to perform all upcoming services within a short time during urgent shutdowns.

Siemens Service experts offered a comprehensive retrofit solution for six existing Kollmorgen drives of the paint rollers machine.

The solution consists of the following:

• 6 x SINAMICS S120 servo converter
• 6 x SIMOTION D drive-based motion control system
