Benefiting from industrial ethernet
Wednesday, 22 April, 2009
There can be too much of a good thing, or so goes the old saying. Fortunately, new technology can come to the rescue, at least in certain cases. For example, an industrial enterprise can grow too big for efficient automation control using traditional technology.
Industrial ethernet can provide a solution, if such techniques as smart remote I/O and peer-to-peer technology are implemented. The result could be better and more flexible control, along with a change in the way ethernet is used.
This tech paper discusses the ways in which advances in industrial ethernet technology provide solutions for control engineers and other involved in industrial processing.
