INFORMATION
Data may differ due to continuous product development.
10.2 SEW-Workbench
The SEW‑Workbench is the central configuration software for inverters from
SEW‑EURODRIVE.
All necessary configurations can be processed, from entering the application to gear
unit, motor and inverter calculations. Other features are optimization of various axis
cycles, including accessory selection, and a check for errors regarding dimensioning
for the entire drive system.
Of course, the SEW‑Workbench can also be used to select and dimension all other
products from SEW‑EURODRIVE, such as decentralized drives and gearmotors. This
means the SEW‑Workbench allows for dimensioning drive solutions from the entire
range of products from SEW‑EURODRIVE. The straightforward operation saves a
great deal of time and minimizes complexity.
The key features of the SEW‑Workbench are:
• Selection of the application
• Calculation of gear unit and motor
• Price-optimized configuration
• Comparison of different solutions
• Inverter calculation
• Multi-axis optimization
• Parameterization of cable and accessories selection
• Dimensioning error check
• Parts list generation
• Electronic catalog with all products
The planning and configuration software SEW‑Workbench is available for download
from the official SEW‑EURODRIVE website.
To use SEW‑Workbench, all you need to do is to register via the Online Support once
you have downloaded and installed the software or received the data DVD. An Inter-
net update service ensures that the products and functions are always up to date.
