B&R Automation: Double the Storage Capacity

March 23, 2020

B&R adds new compact PLC to Compact-S series

B&R is offering a new Compact-S PLC with 512 MB of RAM and 2 GB of internal flash memory. That gives the X20CP0484-1 more than twice the RAM capacity of previous models from the Compact-S series. It is ideal for applications with high requirements for memory and performance.

With a width of only 37.5 mm including the power supply, the X20CP0484-1 is a part of B&R’s compact PLC portfolio. With Ethernet, POWERLINK, USB and RS232, it offers plenty of communication options. An optional CAN interface is also available. With no fans or batteries, the PLC is also maintenance free.

Sleek automation solution

X20 I/O modules can be connected directly to the controller and line up seamlessly. The entire system saves a large amount of space in the control cabinet. Even with its narrow dimensions, the controller has a built-in power supply for itself and the connected I/O modules. There is no need for a separate power supply module.

ICE1 Modules with S2 Redundancy: IO-Link Master for High-Reliability Systems

When a machine in a chemical or pharmaceutical plant fails or is in need of repair, the resulting downtimes can last several weeks: Batches must be disposed of and the plant itself must be completely cleaned until operations can resume. Especially in such critical applications, system redundancy is essential for preventing unplanned downtimes and the associated costs.

Siemens: New Sinamics S210 Servo Drive System Simplifies Motion Control for Machine Builders

With its Sinamics S210 converter designed specifically for use with the newly developed Simotics S-1FK2 motors, Siemens is offering a new and innovative servo drive system in an initial offering from 50–750 watts. The converters come with integrated safety functions and enable rapid engineering via motion technology objects in Simatic S7-1500 controllers. They are connected to higher-level controllers via Profinet and are quickly and easily programmed by automatic motor parameterization and one-button tuning. Typical uses for this new drive system include packaging machines, handling applications such as pick-and-place, wood and plastics processing, as well as life sciences and digital printing.
