Beckhoff Automation BVBA
Over ons
Beckhoff realiseert open automatiseringssystemen op basis van PC-based besturingstechniek. Het productengamma omvat de belangrijkste gebieden van industrie-PC's, I/O- en veldbuscomponenten, aandrijftechniek, automatiseringssoftware, automatisering zonder schakelkasten en hardware voor de industriële beeldverwerking. Voor alle gebieden staan productlijnen ter beschikking die als afzonderlijke componenten of in groep als een volledig, op elkaar afgestemd besturingssysteem fungeren. Onze New Automation Technology staat voor universele en branche-onafhankelijke besturings- en automatiseringsoplossingen die wereldwijd in de meest uiteenlopende toepassingen – van de CNC-gestuurde werktuigmachine tot de intelligente gebouwbesturing – worden ingezet.
Producten en diensten
The MX-System: Pluggable system solution for control cabinet-free automation
The decentralized MX-System is the first to achieve completely control cabinet-free automation of machines and systems. To this end, Beckhoff has bundled over four decades of automation expertise into a modular system that performs all of the tasks and exhibits the properties of a classic control cabinet. Benefits simplified engineering phase and reduction of machine footprint and cable paths UL/CSA and IEC certified – the system can be used worldwide without adjustments plug-and-play principle so that assembly and installation can be performed by non-specialist personnel fast and clear system diagnostics during operation
TwinCAT MTP: modular automation with Module Type Package
With modular automation, process technology plants can be flexibly implemented and adapted with little effort. Rigid automation systems that have been operated unchanged for years are increasingly becoming a thing of the past, with individuality and flexibility asserting themselves as the future of the process industry. The Module Type Package (MTP) is a concept that allows process technology plants to leverage maximum potential across the board, from the planning phase through to operation. This makes MTP a crucial component in the development of future modular automation solutions. Advantages of Module Type Package (MTP) short time-to-market due to minimized plant engineering short time-to-repair due to uniform module interfaces individual production of small batches due to reusability of modules numbering-up replaces time-consuming scale-up uniform look and feel of the visualization system Advantages and features of TwinCAT MTP seamless integration into TwinCAT Engineering interface-driven MTP engineering option to import and export MTP files before programming integrated engineering tool chain achieved by importing P&ID / requirements MTP and API interface to Semodia's MTPlatform automatic PLC code generation based on the module definition automatic generation of the local HMI
NAMUR Open Architecture (NOA): Plant monitoring for the process industry
Beckhoff has developed an NOA edge device specifically for reading out the additional operating data for the higher-level M+O. The edge device, which consists of a compact embedded PC, EtherCAT Terminals with HART functionality, and the relevant TwinCAT project, can be placed directly in the plant. Functions of the NOA Edge Device from Beckhoff: independent second channel of a signal isolator is used the widely used HART protocol is implemented for field device communication conversion and translation of the read data parameters are mapped onto a defined data model standardized information models such as PA-DIM are implemented automatic adaptation of the OPC UA information model, depending on the connected device type
