Rockwell Automation: Enhanced Industrial Data Centers Meet the Evolving Needs of OT Environments

July 24, 2024

The newest generation of Industrial Data Centers (IDC) offers a flexible, scalable compute solution for medium-to-large sized businesses interested in streamlined data collection and storage, with a goal of plant floor virtualization.

IDC Gen 4.0 now offers on-cloud backup through Veeam Software, reduced server footprint, improved physical security, and an industrial-rated design geared toward harsh environments.

Manufacturers need a way to securely collect and store critical data but may lack the skillset to deploy and maintain the necessary technology. Rockwell Automation operational technology (OT) managed services can help ease the load of data center management, allowing in-house engineering and information technology (IT) teams to focus on other high-priority business objectives. IDC Gen 4.0, paired with Rockwell Automation OT managed services, provides access to expertise and enables manufacturers to achieve lower cost of ownership, increased productivity and ease of management.

Siemens: Sinamics G220 Added to Xcelerator Portfolio

With Sinamics G220, Siemens is launching a new high-performance frequency converter to join the Sinamics family in the run-up to Hannover Messe 2023. The innovative frequency converters are equipped with so-called clean power technology. This reduces harmonics by up to 97 percent without the need for line harmonic chokes or DC link chokes. As a result, the Sinamics G220 frequency converters are significantly more efficient in terms of space utilization and operation and make engineering much easier. The new frequency converters are also the first Sinamics drives to be part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, the Siemens-wide business platform for digital transformation.

LUTZE: AirSTREAM Compact

AirSTREAM Compact is used in smaller, compact cabinets in which there is little space in the depth. The rail profiles on the AirSTREAM Compact are not carried with brackets but with supports. These are available in various lengths so that different depths can be achieved. As usual, wiring is installed at the front. Here, the cores are installed to the rear across the combs and then at the side from top to bottom across the supports.
