Case Example

Stop patching the past. Power the future.

Is your high-speed production line still running on legacy Siemens Masterdrives?

For a global Personal Care MNC, obsolescence is not just a technical concern. It is a multi-million dollar supply chain risk. With spare parts becoming increasingly difficult to source and DC-bus capacitors reaching the end of their service life, the reliability of legacy drive systems continues to decline.

ADT recently completed a seamless migration from Siemens Masterdrive to SINAMICS S120, transforming a maintenance liability into a competitive advantage.


 

Why This Modernization Mattered

1. Zero-Risk Migration

Expert parameter mapping ensured motor performance and machine operation were maintained throughout the migration process.

2. Integrated Safety

The upgrade to PROFIsafe provides enhanced operator protection while supporting modern functional safety requirements.

3. Space & Energy Efficiency

The SINAMICS S120 platform offers a more compact footprint with a shared DC-bus architecture, helping reduce power consumption and optimize cabinet space.

4. Future-Ready Platform

Full integration with TIA Portal enables faster diagnostics, simplified maintenance, and a scalable foundation for future automation upgrades.


 

Modernize Before Failure Happens

Waiting for a critical drive failure can result in costly downtime, production losses, and extended recovery times. By modernizing your drive systems before they become a bottleneck, you improve reliability, maintainability, and long-term operational performance.

ADT specializes in hot cut-over drive migrations that are carefully planned to fit within your production and maintenance windows, minimizing disruption while maximizing long-term value.
