    The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) - sometimes called  Industry 4.0  - is radically changing how businesses, especially industrial companies, operate.   Definition: Let’s begin with a short IIoT definition: The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) refers to the vast number of machines and devices - or ‘things’ - a business uses that are now connected to the Internet. Protecting this critical operational data,  secure IIoT  forms a closed, private Internet network where the devices can communicate and share data with other people, systems, and things. This data can be used to improve existing work practices and business processes as well as creating entirely new ways of doing things.   Benefits of IIoT: As IIoT devices become smaller, cheaper and smarter, they can be applied almost everywhere. The data they create can be turned into actionable insight that delivers incredible business benefits including: Improved operatio...

FULL SPEED AHEAD - WITH MESSUNG SERVO & MOTION CONTROL AUTOMATION

  Everybody's talking about the concept of the smart factory. About a factory where production and data blend seamlessly, and where automation and integration are the buzz words for long-term success. ABOUT SERVO & MOTION CONTROL AUTOMATION Motion control is a sub-field of automation, encompassing the systems or sub-systems involved in moving parts of machines in a controlled manner. Motion control is an important part of robotics and CNC machine tools, and is widely used in the packaging, printing, textile, semiconductor production, and assembly industries. (Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_control) Servo mechanisms are automated control systems used in everything from CNC machines, robotics, factory automation and more. Servo systems offer greater reliability and precision as they use position feedback to account for errors and system disturbances unlike open loop systems. Servo drives offer a wide range of advantages for automatic machining systems, inc...
