Factory Automation

Introduction:

To implement Ethernet controlled machine automation by putting an industrial network onto a single machine or a set of machines (most commonly filling machine, labeling machine and packaging machine) factory needs industrial strength Ethernet switch to form an internal network for the whole manufacturing product lines.

Each of these machines is made up of a combination of PLC controller, HMI control panel, and numerous I/Os, relays, sensors, and counters. Anewtech offers a wide range of HMI products for machine automation needs, including: Industrial Panel PC, Industrial Workstation, Industrial Touch Monitor and Panel PC.

 

System:

Human Machine interface

System Description:

Machine builder requires a reliable industrial Ethernet switch that allows Ethernet-based devices to communicate at the system (machine) level, as well as port out to the factory floor to integrate with other process machinery. Serial-to-Ethernet server allow reliable and high speed data transfer to remote control center.

Factory uses unmanaged Ethernet switches which are designed to withstand the wide temperature shifts (-40°C to +75°C) and vibrations. All of these switches support multimode fiber and come with a solid 5-year warranty, provide alarm relay contact outputs to warn operators and system controllers when the power fails or a port link breaks.
