Industrial Automation Applications
Weeding without Chemicals with MPL
- Solution is able to weed at a distance of only a few centimeters close to the crop row
- i7 Quad Core embedded computer (PIP39)
- 4 x PoE to connect 4 LAN cameras with integrated lights
- Integrated UPS system
- Galvanic isolated, fanless
Flow Components Process Equipment
- Production of dairy food and beverage
- Embedded Computer using SoftPLC with fieldbus & complete integration from ERP to plant sensor
- Fanless PIP32, Multiple PROFIBUS, different types of serial interfaces
- Customized OEM look and feel
PIP10 controls bottle fueling system
- For system manufacturer, specialized in process automation, food & beverage
- PIP10 used in combination with multiple "customer specific" profibus master cards
- Uses Windows XP and softPLC to control the plant
- Flexibility and Reliability were the key in this product
Router for field data to supervise System for power plants
- PIPs acquire data from the field (PLC) and send them to the Supervisory Computer
- System works with redundancy (data reliability and integrity)
- Key point: flexibility of the PIP (internal expansion), reliability, long-term availability, same product after years
Control of automatic wire cutter
- Embedded CPU board with CAN interface for communication
- Control of a STN monochrome LCD
- Ethernet and USB for future use
- Use of Windows CE.NET
- Short interrupt latency needed for Realtime purposes
Process control of welding machine
- Control of electric-resistance-welding
- Microprocessor board with MC6809
- Long-term Relation
Industrial Control for printing press
- AO/OA-IO to control power supplies for very sensitive voltage outputs
- Runs under Windows CE.NET
- Special SPI drivers required
- Requires long-term availability
Control of blind seal loader
- Rugged industrial environment
- Minimum 50 digital IO's
- CAN interface for motor control
- Ethernet for communication with PC
- Use of Linux OS
Fermentation Process Controller
- MIP520 PC/104 module
- The MIP520 was chosen mainly because of small size, low power consumption, high MTBF, and professional Linux support from MPL
