Embedded Control for Panel Builders
Multi-touch panels open up new dimensions for innovative HMI design. There are numerous gestures that might be used in an application: zooming in and out and rotating objects with two fingers, scrolling through lists and switching to the next screen with a quick swipe. The main advantage of multi-touch technology is how it makes operation more intuitive.
Power management company Eaton has launched its MTL SUM5 smart universal marshalling solution for process applications capable of reducing distributed control system (DCS) marshalling cabinet requirements by up to 50%. With six patents pending, MTL SUM5 combines five functions in one modular design enabling one standard cabinet to deliver the lowest lifetime costs and lowest installed cost while saving valuable space in a control room.
B&R is among the first manufacturers to introduce controllers with OPC UA over TSN communication technology and Intel Apollo Lake I processors. The new X20 controllers are distinguished by significantly higher performance, additional RAM and integrated onboard flash memory.

B&R Automation: Operator terminal for high-end applications
B&R has added the powerful T80 operator terminal to its Power Panel T-Series. A high-performance Intel Atom processor enables versatile, dynamic web-based HMI solutions. The elegant glass screen makes the Power Panels the perfect accent for a high-end machine design.
The glass screen has integrated edge protection to endure harsh everyday operation. The shallow installation depth makes the devices easy to mount in either a control cabinet or swing arm system. The shallow installation depth makes the devices easy to mount in either a control cabinet or swing arm system. The projected capacitive multi-touch screen responds precisely and reliably, even when operated while wearing thick leather gloves.

Rethinking innovation for the Fourth Industrial Revolution
With the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the increasing speed at which products and entire markets are changing, operational excellence has become more business critical for all organizations than ever before. In a world in which development and deployment are a continuous process, development models and practices based on update-and-maintenance cycles of months or even years have become inadequate. Hence, the Fourth Industrial Revolution demands a paradigm shift in terms of bringing new products, technologies and solutions to market in such a way as to enable them to keep pace with expectations.
In this context, an important buzzword is solution development.
