Wieland Electric: samos PRO MOTION – Set for Safety, Start Smart with Wieland
November 18, 2025
Wieland Electric is literally bringing movement to its safety portfolio: With samos PRO MOTION, the technology company is presenting a new all-in-one safety controller with integrated motion functionality.
A total of six TÜV-certified motion function blocks ensure that up to 60 percent fewer modules are required, thus providing more space in the control cabinet than comparable providers. Among other things, the compact, programmable controller enables safe standstill monitoring even with slow-moving axes and also features an anti-vibration toolbox for macro and micro vibrations.
Whether in mechanical engineering or intralogistics – wherever reliable standstill, speed, direction and position monitoring is required, the compact safety controller from Wieland Electric with fast motion inputs (up to 70KHz) on the base module is the ideal solution.
The integrated motion function blocks include safe standstill monitoring (SSM), which can be implemented with both a speed window and a position window. Here, intuitive configuration options make it very easy to define the limits and thus reliably and continuously monitor even slowly moving axes, for example in construction cranes, lifting platforms, high-bay warehouses or presses.
The samos PRO MOTION also features an anti-vibration toolbox that can be used to professionally solve any vibration problems that arise. This is because vibrations can occur here in particular, which can be resolved using appropriate functions: while the ‘standstill’ function block comes into play for macro vibrations, Wieland Electric has incorporated a professional ‘vibration filter’ into the motion functions for micro vibrations. This allows users to find the optimal compromise between availability and safety within the scope of three options. The documentation for the safety control system is also helpful here, as it provides a clear overview of which safety level can be achieved with which filter option.
As with the samos PRO safety control system, Wieland Electric also offers powerful programming software for the new samos PRO MOTION. The intuitive samos PLAN6 features an extensive library of TÜV-certified function blocks that include typical application-specific safety functions. Simple drag & drop handling significantly reduces engineering effort, project planning time and the potential for errors. Users also benefit from simple documentation and save time when it comes to the CE declaration for the machine. With integrated one-click documentation, the documents for the CE declaration of conformity are available at the touch of a button, saving time in the approval process.
