SIEMENS WF 715 • CAM CONTROLLER
6FM1715-3AA20 WF 715 Cam Controller
Official Siemens identification, electrical data and application guidance for accurate WF 715 replacement and commissioning checks.
At a Glance
| Brand | Siemens |
|---|---|
| Model | 6FM1715-3AA20 |
| Product Type | WF 715 cam controller |
| Core Function | Shaft-angle-dependent cam switching and machine-position processing |
| Application or Compatible Series | Mechanical presses and other machines with rotating axes |
Product Overview
Siemens identifies 6FM1715-3AA20 as the WF 715 cam controller for shaft-position-dependent switching. The official description was developed for mechanical press control and also permits use with other machines whose operating cycle is derived from a rotating axis.
The controller handles up to 32 angle-referenced cams. Its documented operating modes cover continuous cam processing, forced cam outputs, single-stroke operation and setup movement in forward or reverse direction with programmed angle-angle cams.
Key Functions
Angle-Referenced Cam Control
Processes up to 32 cams in relation to the measured shaft position.
Machine Operating Modes
Supports continuous cam processing, forced outputs, single stroke and setup movement.
Encoder and Signal Processing
Accepts documented encoder, fast cam-output and analog-input signals for press or rotating-axis applications.
