EtherCAT
in packaging machines

Machine design challenge: a greater accuracy with less raw materials to be consumed.

Requirements: precise process cycles, synchronized processes, motion control sequences with shorter cycle times. EtherCAT-based control is the right response to the challenge.

Hardware

koenig-pa GmbH offers EtherCAT boards to integrate EtherCAT network in different systems and other networks.

Powerful solutions for industrial automation

KPA Automation is a versatile SCADA platform for developing PC-based customizable factory automation solutions and industrial distributed control systems.

EtherCAT in testbeds

Features: great demands to performance, high speed data exchange, ease of reconfiguration, various types and kinds of test equipment and IT-hardware, different protocols and field buses. Control layer requires high overall performance, communication and integration possibilities.
Solution: EtherCAT due to extremely high performance and a broad range of protocol and field buses.

EtherCAT in energy

Requirements: extremely critical applications, correct balance between throughput and energy consumption, green energy
Solution: EtherCAT due to deterministic, outstanding performance and integrated safety

KPA Motion Control Library

Single- and multi-axes control with shorten cycle time optimized for low end CPUs or multi-core CPUs. Corresponds to PLCopen standard. Behavior of servo drive controllers defined by CiA 402 drive profile (profiles can be implemented). Wide range of OSs supported
