Seminar addresses networking practicalities
PI Group is hosting a free-to-attend seminar in Inchinnan, Scotland on 24 March which will address the key practical issues arising from the use of digital communications technologies in automated manufacturing and process industry applications. The seminar will pay particular attention to Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT).
Covering key application areas such as robotics, the seminar focuses on the practical aspects of using PROFINET, PROFIBUS, and IO-Link, from system design and safety and security considerations through to fault-finding and maintenance.
Key presentations include:
- Introduction to PI Group, including highlights of new supported technologies
- PROFINET network design
- Industrial network commissioning and testing
- Industrial networks safety and security
- Ethernet APL – PROFINET PA or Ethernet
- EMC for industrial networks
- IO-Link case study – benefits and practical application
The seminar is supported by an exhibition with demonstrations of actual tools used in configuration and maintenance.
PI Groups says the seminar will be of great value to designers, production/system engineers, instrument technicians/engineers and C&I engineers involved in the design, operation and maintenance of modern automated factories and process plant.
