Features:
- 6FC5370-5AA20-0AA0 combines CNC, PLC, operator and axis control in one PPU.
- The horizontal front panel integrates a 10.4-inch display and QWERTY keyboard.
- Dedicated PROFINET and DRIVE-CLiQ paths separate I/O traffic from drive communication.
The PPU 261.2 design places the control core directly behind the machine-facing operator panel, reducing the separation between visualization and CNC processing.
Front access is arranged for operator media and service connections, while machine, I/O and drive links remain grouped at the rear of the panel.
The control platform supports the operating requirements of medium-performance milling and turning machines without assigning the HMI, PLC and motion functions to separate panel devices.
The Siemens 6FC5370-5AA20-0AA0 SINUMERIK 828D PPU 261.2 may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
