SIZER - Drive Dimensioning with the TIA Selection Tool: Geared motor including mechanics
Drive Dimensioning with SIZER: Geared motor including mechanics Engineering and design tool SIZER - Drive design with the TIA Selection Tool Model, dimension and configure drives - Fast, transparent and correct for dimensioning and configuring Siemens drive systems. The core elements of a completely integrated drive system are the motor, frequency inverter and gear. With the drive dimensioning in the TIA Selection Tool, you can quickly and transparently find the right drive solution for you.
Drive dimensioning
Product selection and drive design combined in a single tool.
We will show you how you can use the TIA Selection Tool not only to configure your system, but also to design your drives simply and safely. For this purpose, the drive dimensioning integrated in the TIA Selection Tool is used.
Drive dimensioning (via SIZER V3.x import)
You can use the interface for "SIZER for Siemens Drives" to switch from the TIA Selection Tool to SIZER in order to configure your drive solution, including controller and motion control. You can then apply the configuration to the TIA Selection Tool and complete it there.

SIMATIC ET 200AL
Make use of the compact IO system SIMATIC ET 200AL that allows the connection of sensors and actuators in extremely restricted places. We show you how to configure our distributed I/O with protection rating IP65/67 and integrate it into your automation solution with the TIA Selection Tool.
IO-Link
Using IO-Link in switchboards and on the field level simplifies the integration of sensors and actuators. It ensures maximal consistency and efficiency on the last steps to the process. With The TIA Selection Tool, we show you a clever and easy way to connect components using the IO-Link communication system.
AS-Interface
AS-Interface represents an open and manufacturer-independent bus system. Actuators and sensors are connected to controllers via an unshielded 2-wire line – with simultaneous transmission of data and energy. We show you how to clearly structure your field level with the manufacturer-neutral fieldbus standard in the TIA Selection Tool and connect it to the automation level.
