Beckhoff | Open automation solutions

High-performance production technology is the key to success in global competition. Shorter innovation cycles and large model variety lead to high demands. Flexible automation solutions provide a signifi -cant competitive edge and reduce time to market.

Assembly or machining technology must keep up with shorter product cycles and adapt to changing production conditions. Modular systems with easily reconfi gurable components guarantee maximum fl exibility. Existing lines are designed for integration of additional modules with new functionalities, thereby increasing the reusability of the system. Modern systems achieve large capacity with top quality and low unit costs. In addition to constant demand for smaller pro-duction batches and higher production speed, traceability as well as extensive electronic process documentation and validation are becoming more and more signifi cant.

A wide range of existing applications indicate that automation technology from Beckhoff can signifi cantly enhance the productivity and fl exibility of automatic assembly and handling systems. PC-based control technology from Beckhoff enables the whole process chain for individual processing machines and complete production lines to be controlled and monitored: Feeding, joining (welding, gluing, etc.), assembly, checking, handling and palletising can be implemented consistently with Beckhoff Industrial PCs as hardware platform and TwinCAT as automation software.

Integrated control platform for all processesHighly dynamic handling devices with high repeatability require a system that guarantees minimum delays for all sub-processes including physical signal sampling, processing in the motion control-ler and response at a physical output. Beckhoff offers the required products and technologies: high-performance IPCs and Embedded

PCs with Motherboards specially developed for industrial applications, Control Panels as control and display elements, fast and compact I/O components in IP 20 or IP 67, EtherCAT as open and ultra-fast com-munication system, versatile Servo Drive Technology, cost-effective stepper motor technology and the TwinCAT PLC and motion control software.

The functional safety of the application is ensured through Beckhoff TwinSAFE technology. Safe I/O components and drive-inte-grated safety functions that are linked to the safe Logic Terminal via a safe communication enable safe system operation.

TwinCAT: continuity with PC-based technologyTwinCAT integrates PLC and Motion Control functions and controls the individual process steps of the processing machines with high performance. Software PLC programming is based on the interna-tional IEC 61131-3 standard. A wide range of software modules for different tasks such as cams, synchronised and interpolating move-ments of several axes are available.

Solutions for different areas of application can be implemented due to the high fl exibility in terms of combination options for master and slave axes and the high-performance and diverse motion func-tions. Powerful tools such as TwinCAT Cam Design Tool and TwinCAT ScopeView support system design and commissioning. PLC libraries with function blocks based on the PLCopen Motion Control standards simplify programming and enable the use of standardised compo-nents.

Open communication interfaces support integration into existing visualisation and control systems. Depending on the requirements of the automation devices, the Windows operating system enables further software components such as vision systems to be installed

An assembly line is characterised by its modular design. PC-based control enables fl exible control archi-tectures for modular assembly lines. With its scalable and open hardware and software control technology, Beckhoff offers suitable solutions for central and decentralised archi-tectures.

CentralIn a central control architecture the PC-based solution from Beckhoff with its high-performance PC plat-form and high-performance EtherCAT communication can fully demon-strate its benefi ts: An Industrial PC with TwinCAT automation software handles all I/O, PLC and Motion Control tasks. Further advantages include central diagnostics, com-missioning and maintenance and convenient PLC program manage-ment. EtherCAT eliminates fi eldbus bottlenecks. Data from a large number of I/Os can be collected, and numerous axes can be con-trolled and synchronised.

DecentralisedIn a decentralised control archi-tecture each module has its own, stand-alone control system, which simplifi es replacement and testing of individual modules. Since the control tasks are distributed, lower-performance CPUs, such as the Embedded PCs of the CX series, can be used. In addition to distributed controllers, such systems gener-ally feature a central master PLC, which deals with management tasks such as logistics, parts tracking and central statistics. Communication between modules (e.g. via Ethernet TCP/IP), with the master computer and for synchronisation of the PLCs is more complex than in a central solution.

EtherCAT is the Ethernet solution for industrial automation, characterised by outstanding performance and particularly simple handling.The use of EtherCAT for assembly, handling and robotics offers decisive advantages:– EtherCAT guarantees maximum performance based on Industrial Ethernet.– Extremely short update times are possible for the process image (50 µs).– Control loops (up to the current controller) can be closed via the bus. Control of

the axes can take place centrally in the controller – including the coupled movement function.

– No subordinate I/O subsystems; each I/O terminal is an EtherCAT device. This makes extremely short reaction times possible.

– The application determines the topology, not the communication system: line, star, tree – anything is possible.

– Redundancy and Hot Connect options are integrated in the system.– Safe transfer of data is possible with the Safety over EtherCAT protocol up to

SIL 3 of IEC 61508.– A standard Ethernet port can be used for the EtherCAT master; no special master

interface card is necessary.
