Conformance to the protocol standard is the basis for the problem-free interaction of devices from different manufacturers in the same network, also called in short interoperability. And both are thus very important for the success of a communication technology. Version 2.3 carries on all functionalities and tests of the first…

New Single Pair Ethernet technology utilizes high quality asset health insights, and power on two wires, for condition monitoring applications. An AI-driven platform senses and interprets in real-time, any sound, vibration, pressure, current, or temperature for continuous, condition-based monitoring and on-demand diagnostics, enabling AI integration at all levels.

The Porsche plants in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen and Leipzig implemented a common data infrastructure and universal cloud connectivity based on Connectware technology. A neutral technical framework provides a wide variety of digital solutions along the production chain that can be implemented efficiently and in a compatible manner.

Intrinsics Imaging’s AI-powered vision system uses edge I/O to connect the cloud to the edge.

ABB launches industry-first smart factory solution for safer, more autonomous and efficient steel melt shop operations.

Industrial industries and the people, communities, and entities they serve are facing greater risks from cyberattacks. Administrators and engineers who service industrial networks must be diligent in providing security measures to safeguard against attacks.

John Browett, General Manager at the CC-Link Partner Association (CLPA), looks at how to reap the benefits of the Edge with advanced industrial communication solutions.

Ensuring that a data communications network is secure is a never-ending task, with new vulnerabilities being exposed every day. Methods to prevent unauthorised access and protect against a cybersecurity attack vary between industries. However, being proactive enables network administrators to prevent security breaches and be prepared if any incident does…

Making sense of the edge, most manufacturing facilities are not in a position for the widespread deployment of edge devices, or edge platforms to converge these technologies. Instead, manufacturers need scalable options in their journey to digitalisation — and independent software can be the glue that makes this possible.

Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) is an advanced technology that helps industry leaders accelerate their digital transformation in industrial automation. This article briefly introduces adaptive manufacturing and the core technology, TSN, that helps achieve it.
