E-Repair Services for the Siemens SIMOREG range

💡 Introduction to the Siemens SIMOREG Range

The Siemens SIMOREG range represents one of the most established and reliable solutions for the control and drive of direct current (DC) motors in industrial environments. Designed for heavy-duty applications and continuous processes, SIMOREG has been a benchmark for decades in sectors such as steelmaking, paper mills, rolling mills, extrusion, lifting systems, and high-inertia process plants.

Even today, although many versions are no longer in production, SIMOREG systems are still widely installed and fully operational. Their production continuity depends on specialist maintenance, certified regeneration, and advanced technical support—areas in which E-Repair operates as a trusted reference partner.

⚙️ Key Features of the SIMOREG Range

The SIMOREG family is renowned for its electronic robustness and control precision, features that have made it a long-term solution in complex industrial plants:

Precise DC motor control
Accurate regulation of speed, torque, and current, even under dynamic conditions and variable loads.

High industrial reliability
Designed to operate in harsh environments, with high temperatures, dust, and continuous duty cycles.

Modular architecture
Separate power, control, and communication components, easy to maintain and replace.

Integration with Siemens automation systems
Compatibility with PLCs and SINUMERIK and SIMATIC control systems.

Long operational lifetime
Many SIMOREG drives are still in operation after decades, thanks to oversized electronic design.
