• Thursday, 16 November 2023, 09:30 – 09:50: Upgrade your factory to the Digital Age using IIOT without replacing legacy devices – This will be presented by Sanjay Anvekar of Horner Ireland Ltd.

In the pursuit of establishing a state-of-the-art Digital Factory, engineers encounter the challenge of replacing time-tested and reliable equipment with newer alternatives capable of seamless communication through the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). This transition demands a strategic approach that balances the preservation of existing infrastructure while embracing cutting-edge technology.

In this insightful presentation, we illuminate a groundbreaking solution: our advanced Controller boasting a fully integrated Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), Human Machine Interface (HMI), Input/Output (I/O) system, and robust networking capabilities. This innovative integration not only facilitates the integration of legacy devices but also lays a solid foundation for ushering in the era of the Digital Factory and Industry 4.0.

Our Controller’s harmonious fusion of PLC, HMI, I/O, and Networking functionalities culminates in a versatile and forward-thinking product. By seamlessly melding these critical components, we empower engineers to bridge the gap between established machinery and the demands of the modern industrial landscape. This means that your tried and tested equipment can evolve alongside the digital transformation, remaining relevant and effective in an increasingly interconnected world.

Furthermore, our integrated approach opens doors to a host of benefits. From streamlined operations to enhanced data accessibility, the Digital Factory vision becomes not only achievable but also immensely rewarding. Real-time insights, remote monitoring, and predictive maintenance capabilities become par for the course, ensuring optimal performance and resource utilization.

In essence, our Controller serves as a linchpin in the journey toward an interconnected, digitally empowered factory environment. It not only preserves the value of your existing investments but also paves the way for a seamless transition into the era of Industry 4.0. With this powerful tool at your disposal, you’re equipped to embrace the future of manufacturing with confidence and efficiency.

Join us in this presentation as we delve deeper into the transformative potential of our Controller, demonstrating how it can catalyze your organization’s evolution towards a fully realized Digital Factory. Together, let’s shape the future of industry and lead the way into a new era of manufacturing excellence.

The release of Cscape 10 will also unlock the full potential of our upcoming Canvas Series of controllers. The Canvas Series will harness all the above features on a range of powerful All-In-One controllers to suit all kinds of applications.

The Canvas Series Controllers will feature:

• All-new Models with a New Look
• Multi-core CPU with an Advanced Graphics Engine

Please note that the Canvas Series will require Cscape 10.
