One day seminar teaches how fieldbus, ethernet, and OPC-DX can be combined to offer hierarchical automation for manufacturing operations
How should ethernet be integrated into manufacturing processes? Is Profibus enough for modern manufacturing? Why is Profibus much more than just a network? Readers can find out the answers to these and many more questions at our one day seminar that teaches how Profibus, Profinet, ethernet, and OPC-DX can be combined to offer a complete, seamless hierarchy of automation for modern manufacturing operations.
Speakers are Jurgen Lange of Softing, member of OPC European Steering Committee; Paul Taylor, ethernet specialist at Hirschmann Electronics, and Brian Holliday, Siemens A&D, a member of Profibus UK steering committee.
The agenda, which can be flexible on the day - covers: a short introduction to ethernet, automating your enterprise, OPC data exchange, the future of automation, Q&A and panel discussion.
The presenters are happy to dwell on areas of specific interest and questions are encouraged throughout the day.
Hosted by Hirschmann Electronics at its Bedford head office on Wednesday 12 June, the delegate price is £95 + VAT (Profibus UK members) or £125 + VAT (non members).
