Background |
|
Intelligent robots are commonly used in the modern manufacturing
industry and they are very active in a variety of production lines.
Just as humans speak different languages, robots also have their own
languages, which are called "protocols". Industrial robots can
communicate with other machines in specific protocols, such as
Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU, DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, etc. |

Industrial robots are multi-joint manipulators or
multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical devices widely used in the
industry. They have intelligent control capabilities that achieve
various commands and actions within industrial production and
manufacturing. Common industrial robot brands include ABB, KUKA,
FANUC, Kawasaki, Yaskawa, Siasun and Lincoln (welding robot).
However, industrial robots of different brands usually use
different
communication protocols. In actual factory conditions, it is
necessary to connect multiple robots with PLCs based on different
protocols to communicate data through out the plant. But how can one
achieve these complex applications? SST Automation's GT100 and GT200 series
industrial gateways can easily solve these problems. SST Automation's gateways support many types of protocols, covering most of
the commonly used industrial communication protocols and networks
around in the world. |

Solution |
| In
the manufacturing and processing production line, SST Automation's
industrial communication gateways can easily connect many types of devices including HMIs (Modbus TCP), FANUC robots, ABB robots
(DeviceNet), Siemens PLCs, Mitsubishi PLCs, Yaskawa spraying robots,
and more. They can also receive real-time statuses,
control the robots to complete the production process, and
facilitate the operator to monitor the production data remotely.
