EtherCAT delivers performance for machine builders

As the popularity of EtherCAT rises, Carlo Gavazzi has launched an additional IIoT device to its range of NRG solid state relays.

The latest controller uses EtherCAT to interface with the main controller to provide reliable transmission of machine data, process parameters and diagnostic data, providing a powerful solution which meets the demand for faster communication of data transfer and exchange providing real-time data monitoring, prevention of machine breakdown and accurate troubleshooting.

Carlo Gavazzi continues to develop solutions for Industry 4.0 and future smart factories, making the NRG platform the system of choice for many machine builders worldwide. The NRG platform offers real-time monitoring and is focused on optimising manufacturing operations quickly and efficiently providing the user with more cost-effective processes, real-time data monitoring, prevention of machine breakdown and accurate troubleshooting. Increasing productivity and limiting supply chain disruption.

Carlo Gavazzi say the NRG Series is the perfect solution for machine builders whereby data collection and remote access have become top priority, satisfying the requirements for many manufacturing. Adoption of the NRG Series allows manufacturers to quickly switch to state-of-the-art, Industry 4.0 technologies to drive new business, boost quality, increase productivity, and sustainability and alleviate the impact of labour shortages.
