MOVI-C FREQUENCY INVERTER IN AUTOMATION SYSTEMS
The MOVI-C® series is the new "family" of automation systems from the German company SEW-EURODRIVE.
They provide a complete solution for your application – whatever it may be – from simple independent motor control to complex multi-axis applications that require maximum precision and coordination.
With the new MOVI-C® technology, the design and control stages of your machine are greatly simplified, as a multitude of drive & automation materials are provided from a single source.
Starting from SEW-EURODRIVE's huge range in gearunits, DRN asynchronous motors and CMP & CM3C synchronous servo motors and combining them with automation systems from the MOVI-C® series, you have the ideal combination for every application!
The options of the MOVI-C® series are many and cover all your requirements.
Let's see them in more detail!
SINGLE AXIS INVERTER MOVITRAC ADVANCED
Movitrac® Advanced is the new “all rounder” inverter from SEW-EURODRIVE as it provides a multitude of options and can cover all your needs for simple and medium complexity applications.
It is available in power ratings from 0.25kW up to 315kW and can drive most types of three-phase motors.
Movitrac® Advanced can (in combination with SEW-EURODRIVE's new encoders with single cable technology) be used to control modern servomotors and for positioning.
Thus, in combination with a MOVIKIT® Software Module and MOVISUITE® (free application from SEW-EURODRIVE for inverter programming) you can very easily program your application in just a few minutes!
It has an integrated fieldbus interface (you can choose from PROFINET, EtherCAT®/SBusPLUS, EtherCAT® CiA402, POWERLINK CiA402, Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IPTM) and has STO PL-d safety function as standard.
Finally, with the integrated memory card in Movitrac® Advanced, replacing it is easier than ever!
MULTI AXIS INVERTERS MOVIDRIVE® C FOR DRIVING MULTI AXIS APPLICATIONS
The new Movidrive C® is the successor to the highly successful Movidrive B®. It is available in three versions, the Movidrive® Technology with integrated fieldbus interface, the Movidrive® Modular, with a common power supply for several axes that works in conjunction with the new Movi-C® Controllers, and the Movidrive® System for applications where it is not possible to use Movidrive® Modular.
Movidrive C® are available in powers from 0.55kW up to 315kW and can be overloaded up to 250%!
Combined with the MOVI-C® controllers and ready-made software modules - MOVIKIT®, you can program each application immediately and precisely as your work will be significantly simplified!
With the above as well as the additional cards for safety and encoder evaluation, there is no application that Movidrive C® cannot perform!

DECENTRALIZED MOVIMOT® INVERTERS FOR DECENTRALIZED APPLICATIONS
The new Movimot® inverters are available in three versions, Movimot Advanced® which is integrated onto the motor, Movimot Flexible® which is placed next to the motor and Movimot Performance® which in combination with SEW-EURODRIVE servo motors achieves the maximum energy class IE5!
The functions of the new Movimot® have been significantly increased as Movimot® can now also drive modern servo motors and perform positioning applications. Combined with the many communication options and the standard industrial plug connectors, Movimot® is the ideal inverter for all decentralized applications!
MOTION CONTROLLERS MOVI-C® CONTROLLERS FOR COMPLEX APPLICATIONS UP TO 32 INTERPOLATING AXES (H2)
The new MOVI-C® Controllers are SEW-EURODRIVE's proposal for controlling even the most demanding applications. Combined with ready-made Movikit® software modules, the complexity of your program is significantly reduced, requiring only basic programming knowledge.
MOVI-C® Controllers are available in four versions for controlling from 2 to 32 coordinated axes (interpolating axes).
A decentralized Field Controller version is also available for controlling up to 8 coordinated axes and installation outside the electrical panel!
You can choose one of the available Fieldbuses to connect to almost any higher level PLC.

SOFTWARE MODULES MOVIKIT®
MOVIKIT® are ready-made automation software solutions from SEW that minimize complexity, as you no longer need to change parameters one by one in inverters or write complex PLC programs in IEC programming language. With MOVIKIT®, most functions of the inverters can be easily programmed through the very friendly user interface of MOVISUITE®.
There are many MOVIKIT® solutions that will satisfy even the most demanding users:
- the "simple" MOVIKIT® Velocity for highly precise speed control
- the most specialized MOVIKIT® Gearing, MOVIKIT® Camming
- the MOVIKIT® stacker cranes for use in stacker cranes, storage retrieval systems
- MOVIKIT® Robotics for robot programming and more.
MOVIKIT® offers a predefined Fieldbus Interface in every application for easy installation with minimal changes in every new project.
ALL IN ONE ENGINEERING SOFTWARE MOVISUITE® FOR STARTUP, PROGRAMMING AND DIAGNOSTICS
With the new Movisuite® platform from SEW-EURODRIVE (available free of charge on the manufacturer's website) you can now connect directly and very easily from your computer to all new MOVI-C® products.
Through the extremely user-friendly interface you can carry out every task comprehensively, without having to navigate between programs on the computer.
With Movisuite® you can easily and with a single program do the following:
- startup of the inverters
- optimization of the parameters of the inverters depending on the motor and the load
- diagnosis of any errors and the conditions that may have caused them
- connection to MOVI-C® Controllers and easily program even the most demanding functions!
