Siemens has introduced the next-generation Sinamics G drive family, built on a common technology platform for continuous motion applications. According to the company’s announcement of 28 October 2026, the portfolio is built on three core principles: cybersecurity by design, integrated safety functions and digitalisation.
Announced by Erlangen-based Siemens Digital Industries, the new generation brings together different needs, from general-purpose industrial applications to compact machines and infrastructure applications such as pumps, fans and compressors, under a single drive family.
A family of five models
According to the announcement, the new members of the family and their main areas of use are as follows:
- Sinamics G200: A new drive for general-purpose industrial applications.
- Sinamics G210C: For compact machines requiring high power density and overload capacity.
- Sinamics G210: A versatile, general-purpose drive that can be used in conveying, positioning and processing applications.
- Sinamics G210X: Adds dedicated functions for pumps, fans, compressors and other infrastructure applications.
At the top of the family is the flexible, high-performance Sinamics G220, first introduced in 2023. Siemens positions the G220 as the cornerstone of the new generation.
Cybersecurity and integrated safety
According to Siemens, all drives in the new generation will be ready for the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). Cybersecurity capabilities extend up to Security Level Capability 2 (SL-C 2) under the IEC 62443-4-2 standard. The safety functions integrated into the drives offer support up to Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3).
Engineering and data
The company says the new family offers seamless integration with TIA Portal, an integrated web server and a common engineering and operating concept across all models. Drive and operating data can be shared via the Ethernet-based OPC UA standard; this data can be used in asset and energy management, condition monitoring and predictive maintenance applications.
The announcement does not include details on the power ranges or market launch dates of the new models.
