The customer is one of the leading industrial manufacturers of electric actuators and industrial robots in a variety of sectors and industries, such as the automotive industry, electronics manufacturing, and the optical, medical, and pharmaceutical industries.
The latest technological trend for robot controllers to implement modbustcp to profinet.
At the time we weren't sure how far the fieldbus would penetrate our industry, but now network connectivity is the key to success. Industrial networks have become a common practice, and the networks required vary from market to market. In this case, the use of standardized modules such as modbustcp to PROFINET embedded products facilitates the customer's quick time-to-market.
The ModBuscp to Profinet solution offers the company a number of benefits, such as reduced development costs, faster time-to-market, and the ability to easily adapt to new networks.
There are three main requirements for customer site network connectivity, first, the device needs to be multi-networked with various fieldbuses and Industrial Ethernet.
The main reason for converting ModBuscp to Profinet is that it provides a standardized, network-independent hardware and software interface for our applications, so that engineering costs and total development time are reduced by converting ModBuscp to Profine gateway products.
Another major advantage of using the ModBuscp to Profinet solution is that the availability of local support is crucial, with customers having access to technical support, remote configuration and on-site commissioning of the equipment at any time. Especially in some special equipment non-standard protocols, equipment manufacturers often need to meet customer needs in a short time. During the first implementation of the ModBuscp to Profinet, we had a lot of questions about the TCP IP connection, and further technical advances were made with the on-site support of our technicians for ModBuscp to Profinet.
