Case Studies

How London Electronics enabled their large message displays to communicate on PROFIBUS.

FLSmidth, a world leader in Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) technology decided to integrate HMS’s communication gateways to inform their users of the status of the air pollution control equipment. 

Anybus technology improves flexibility and accelerates time to market for Modbus Micro Motion transmitters with Ethernet/IP connectivity.

Berg Propulsion could connect a CAN-based propeller display to their control 
system for boats which uses Modbus-RTU. By using the Anybus Communicator CAN, the systems now communicate seamlessly. 

The Anybus Communicator CAN is used to enable communication between the CAN-bus in straddle carriers and a Modbus TCP-based monitoring system. Also, a programmable Communicator is used to connect GPS trackers (NMEA-based) to the CAN-bus of the straddle carriers. 

At their plant in Lyon, Genzyme has to connect laboratory equipment, which is not initially designed to communicate with fieldbuses. Genzyme has used about thirty HMS Anybus Communicator gateways, to enable consistent SCADA management across all the devices in use. 

Anybus Communicators enable communication between different devices in Guangzhou Metro’s surveillance system. The gateways enable all devices to connect to the BAS-system which is based on ControlNet.
