Beckhoff: CP6xxx, CP7xxx | Single-Touch Control Panel

March 28, 2023

The CP6xxx and CP7xxx control panels offer a balance between the latest PC technology and long-term availability of control components.

Together with the software employed, Control Panels in the most diverse form factors act as the centerpiece of a variety of automation tasks, such as the control of machines, processes and logistic systems, the networking of plant parts, the data acquisition or image processing. For classic control tasks, PC-based control technology offers excellent scalability and flexibility and is therefore increasingly being used in place of hardware PLCs.

Single-touch technology with guaranteed long-term availability

Even though advanced multi-touch operating scenarios have become indispensable in industrial applications as a result of general digitization, there is still a large market for single-touch applications. These applications are frequently realized with the help of resistive touch technology. Beckhoff has been using this technology successfully in a large number of single-touch Control Panels for over 20 years.

New I/O Module with Protection Type IP67 and PROFINET/PROFIsafe from PILZ

 

Flexible and modular automation solutions require I/O systems that enable personnel protection directly at the danger zone. The new PDP67 PN with PROFINET/ PROFIsafe interface is the ideal solution for safety outside the control cabinet. Thanks to its robust design with protection class IP67, it can be installed directly at the machine. This saves space in the control cabinet and enables modular plant designs.
