Case Studies

Anybus X-gateways connect DeviceNet-based robot cells to several other industrial networks. This is cheaper than using a robot cabinet with multiple networks installed and provides clear cuts between the robot cell and the factory network.

"Very often, we have to interface different kinds of devices in our automatic systems that use different communication protocols. For example, we typically use robots with DeviceNet interface and PLCs with Profibus interface. This need for flexibility in diverse design conditions led us to try HMS products, which we appreciated immediately because they are particularly comprehensive and can be used to interface different kinds of machines, even pre-existing machinery” says Angelo Galimberti, Director of C.I.A. Automation and Robotics.

Anybus Wireless Bolt™ gives the STERISAFE™-Pro disinfection robot wireless access. This enables users to control the robot using a tablet.
