Webinar: Efficient Series Machine Manufacturing – Plug-and-Play in the Control Cabinet

October 5, 2020

The EJxxxx EtherCAT plug-in modules are electronically based on the well-known EtherCAT I/O system and their design allows them to be directly attached to a circuit board. The circuit board is an application-specific signal distribution board that distributes signals and power supply to individual application-specific plug connectors in order to connect the controller to further machine modules. Elaborate manual wiring of single wires, common in conventional control cabinet construction, is replaced by simply plugging in prefabricated cable harnesses. Unit costs are lowered and the risk of incorrect wiring is reduced to a minimum by coded components.

In this 30-minute webinar, Torsten Budde, Product Manager I/O, talks about the elimination of conventional wiring. As a result, the probability of errors is reduced and work processes are simplified. The presentation also deals with the machine-specific connection level. The various implementation scenarios are presented with Beckhoff technology. The speaker will also show how Beckhoff can support the optimization of the machine production.

Following the webinar, the speaker will be available for questions.

Siemens: SIMOVAC Non-Arc-Resistant and SIMOVAC-AR Arc-Resistant Motor Controllers

The Siemens SIMOVAC medium-voltage non-arc-resistant and SIMOVAC-AR arc-resistant controllers have a modular design incorporating up to two 12SVC400 (400 A) controllers, housed in a freestanding sheet steel enclosure. Each controller is UL 347 class E2, equipped with three current-limiting fuses, a non-load-break isolating switch, and a fixed-mounted vacuum contactor (plug-in type optional for 12SVC400). The enclosure is designed for front access, allowing the equipment to be located with the rear of the equipment close to a non-combustible wall.
