In one sentence

How it applies

  • Engineering: Communication modules and safety modules are selected per application; the combination affects the configuration effort.
  • Maintenance: For installed-base equipment, spare-part availability and successor products matter; check the product's lifecycle status with the vendor.
  • Documentation: Record the exact type code, firmware and module options for each axis, because replacement devices must match or be reconfigured. When a series is discontinued, update the spare-parts list and describe the migration path. For translation and localization, keep the product name unchanged in every language and record it in the terminology database as a do-not-translate term.

Keep in mind: Product names, series, lifecycle status and features change. Check them against Lenze's current documentation before naming specific models.
