With the aid of their diagnostic and forecasting functions, they derive information regarding the condition of the unit and detect subtle changes or imminent malfunctions. This helps to prevent machine downtime and increase system availability. In the future, automation pyramids will be increasingly replaced by a fully networked automation cloud ERP MES HMI INTELLIGENT COMMUNICATION WITHIN PRODUCTION Networking in production means the gradual break-up of hierarchical information structures. An automation cloud is formed in which intelligent devices interact with one another and organize themselves via IO-Link. Intelligent products communicate with the users systems and adjust all process parameters for energy-optimized operation. 10 WWW.SCHMALZ.COM
