Valve terminals: the automation platform
of the 21st century

Loading the player ...

Big trend: function integration on valve terminals

Function integration means increased productivity and reduced installation

Electrical components: up to 512 digital/analogue I/O, temperature and pressure sensors
Pneumatics: up to 128 valves
Proportional pneumatics: up to eight pressure regulators on the bus
Servopneumatics: positioning and soft stop for up to eight axes
Motion control: electrical drives, synchronous/asynchronous/2.5 D interpolation
Safety engineering: press valves, special valves and start-up pressurisation

Valve terminals – the benefit for automation

Valve terminal system overview

More than 20 fieldbus and Ethernet protocols:

PROFIBUS and PROFINET

DeviceNet and Ethernet/IP

CANopen, Modbus TCP and EtherCAT

AS-interface

Simple diagnostics and visualisation

e.g. via FDT/DTM (Profibus)
or OPC server (Ethernet)

The best motion control IP65 function integration

You can expect 20 times or even more here!

From the gripper and vacuum generation through to the camera-guided handling unit with vision system, get it all from one source: actuated electrically or pneumatically, regardless of the technology – joined together on the CPX automation platform.
