ADLINK's USB data acquisition module series has built-in signal conditioning function, supports USB interface power supply, and can be plug and play. Its detachable connector design simplifies system wiring and is widely used in various portable measurement applications, such as factory automation industry. Research institutes, university teaching experiments, etc., and at the same time have high-accuracy data collection. Its easy-to-use architecture reduces system build complexity while increasing accuracy and reducing system development costs.
Edit Comment: This USB module data acquisition module has high voltage isolation protection design, suitable for economical industrial automation control and high voltage digital input and output monitoring applications, and is very competitive in the same type of industry.
New product three: Rockwell Automation StraTIx5950 industrial information security device
Most IT firewalls today cannot effectively cope with the threats of industrial network communication, so they are unable to control the information risks in the production environment. Rockwell Automation's Allen-Bradley StraTIx5950 information security device uses a new information security technology to escort the factory floor system.
The device uses an Adaptive Information Security Appliance (ASA) firewall and Fire POWER technology to create a security boundary between units/zones and to protect individual machines, production lines or plants. This is in line with the IEC62443 specification. The device also uses Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology. The DPI technology developed in collaboration with Cisco can be used to test Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) and other industrial protocols.
"The combination of ASA firewall, FirePOWER and DPI technology gives IT professionals the granularity visibility and control needed to protect industrial networks," said Divya Venkataraman, global product manager for Rockwell Automation. “With the StraTIx5950 appliance, users can now configure and implement policies to prevent potentially malicious firmware updates and program downloads. This helps improve the integrity of the plant floor operations.â€
The StraTIx 5950 Information Security Appliance is available with an optional pay-as-you-go license. As with personal computer-based anti-virus services, subscribers will continue to receive updates on threat characteristics and application characteristics to help protect against the latest known security threats.
This new device includes four Gigabit Ethernet ports, offering optical and electrical ports, electrical-only ports, and small form-factor pluggable (SFP) slots. The unit is industrially reinforced and has an IP30 rating and is resistant to electric shock, electric shock and electrical noise. It can operate in temperatures ranging from minus 40 to minus 60 degrees Celsius (minus 40 to zero and 140 degrees Fahrenheit).
Edit Comment: The Stratix 5950 is newly configured with four Gigabit Ethernet ports, which makes it extremely adaptable to harsh working environments.
New product four: Yaskawa Electric GA77 driver
At the recent International Machinery Automation Exhibition held in Germany, Yaskawa Electric of Japan presented the first model of a new generation of inverters. The company claims that the size of the frequency converter is the smallest in the market, and it is easy to start and easy to operate. This GA77 driver can be used to control asynchronous, permanent magnet, or synchronous reluctance motors without the need for automatic adjustment.
The new control panel features a streamlined user interface and an interactive dialog-guided boot that enables quick start-up of the drive even without the expertise. Yaskawa Electric also provides PC tools, smartphone apps and cloud-based services for parameter management and backup.
The IP20 protection-grade drive occupies 40% less space than the previous starter and can be operated side by side without gaps. The drive has a built-in EMC filter and SIL3 compliant STO input.
Edit Comment: The space occupied by the GA77 drive has been reduced by half compared with before, which undoubtedly brings great convenience to the work.
New product five: Siemens TIA Botu V14 engineering platform
The new TIA Portal V14 version from Siemens helps equipment manufacturers reduce time-to-market and increase end-user productivity. Siemens has enriched the TIA Portal V14 engineering platform, bringing users a series of new digital enterprise functions that fully meet the requirements of Industry 4.0.
TIA Portal interacts with other systems and exchanges data through an open interface. The Teamcenter Gateway provides a new interface for product data management in Teamcenter, the data collaboration platform used by Siemens for design, planning and engineering. Users can easily create model-based programs with a new interface to Matlab/Simulink. Engineering design based on cloud platform is also a new feature. With a private cloud, users can access plant controllers via the new CloudConnector plug-in in the TIA Portal or take advantage of Siemens' industry-oriented cloud solution MindSphere for other digital services from Siemens. Another new feature is PLC Sim Advanced, which provides interfaces for simulation software such as Plant Simulation and Process Simulate. With the PLC Sim Advanced users can simulate a digital twin for the SimaticS7-1500 controller for efficient virtual commissioning.
Based on the guiding principle of “single engineering platformâ€, TIA Portal not only integrates the parameter configuration and programming configuration of automation components (from controller and HMI device to drive) into a unified engineering platform, but also information security and function. Security and so on are integrated. A suite of Simatic advanced motion controllers and Sinamics servo drive systems is now integrated into the TIA Portal V14 for motion control applications. The new SimaticS7-1500T-CPU controller handles motion control tasks, while Profinet's new SinamicsV90 servo drive system delivers the speed and precision required for machine tools.
Editor's comment: TIA Botu V14 engineering platform integrates multiple operating systems. The new features help reduce engineering requirements and increase data visibility during operation. It is a good driving tool for factory integration.
