Decentralized machine design requires secure and fast communication between the distributed network nodes. In addition, the connection to the network must be space-saving, cost-effective and as easy to set up as possible. Our valve terminal experts paid particular attention to both aspects when they designed the VTUX valve terminal as a participant in the AP communication network.
If the valve terminal layout is clear, valve positions can be bundled en bloc, hose and cable lengths can be optimized, and connection interfaces can be reduced to a minimum. This saves costs significantly. But even if you want to keep all options open, the VTUX valve terminal is exactly right. Because once the correct design method has been defined, VTUX provides the appropriate options.
Even those who are already thinking beyond the next and the next but one generation of machines and are looking for a technology,
which will remain stable over the next few years, and who adaptively supports upcoming developments, will find that the valve terminal
VTUX with AP communication technology offers exactly the right technology.
The future with digital twins, with data evaluations using AI, condition recording of the machine and its components, brings a volume of data that must be transported and handled. The VTUX is equipped for this communication with regard to internal loop-through as well as forwarding between decentralized communication participants.
With the new generation VTUX, the position of the terminals in the machine can be defined completely freely and independently, as can their size and placement. The more comprehensive functions are simply placed where there is more free space. Where conditions demand stronger restrictions, you place only the elements that are immediately necessary.
Our technical consultants will be pleased to present the new VTUX valve terminal to you and to inform you about the new application possibilities as well as development perspectives.
