Control cabinet-free winding machine increases cycle from 60 to 250 windings per minute
Winding coils is a task that has to be carried out billions of times in industry. Fast, precise, and reliable processes are therefore very important. However, increasing requirements in terms of cost efficiency and new manufacturing structures are placing significant demands on machine builders. In this regard, the MX-System from Beckhoff opens up completely new possibilities for Aumann,…
PC-based control heeft machineontwerp blijvend veranderd
PC-based control heeft machineontwerp blijvend veranderd, niet alleen door hogere performance, maar vooral door automatisering software gedreven te maken. In Industrial Plant & Equipment Magazine (IP&E) blikken we terug op de vroege Beckhoff controller die brak met de traditionele, gesloten PLC architecturen. Die stap richting open, schaalbare en geïntegreerde systemen vormt nog steeds de basis van moderne machinebouw.
Waar moet die extra IPC nog passen?
Iedereen die ooit een overvolle schakelkast heeft geopend, kent het gevoel: waar moet die extra IPC nog passen? Onze collega Felix Wildemann (productmanager) laat in de video zien hoe de C60xx series precies daar het verschil maakt. Vier compacte IPC lijnen, elk met hun eigen kracht.
