FLSmidth, a world leader in Electrostatic Precipitator technology, develops advanced pollution control systems in order to comply with the stringent industrial standards. Particle removal efficiency is controlled in real time by sophisticated micro processor based voltage controls. FLSmidth decided to integrate HMS’s communication system to inform their users of the status of the air pollution control equipment. Because they were able to implement this interface with a standard and an easily integrated solution, they selected HMS Industrial Networks.
The Anybus Communicator gateways now enable integration of industrial devices which support the Rockwell Automation DF1 protocol to fieldbus and Industrial Ethernet networks!
Baldor Electric Company has upgraded its range of smart drives with HMS. This range is now able to communicate with a PLC, it is much more open to communication standards and its communication interfaces are consistent throughout the entire range.
HMS extends its gateway family with 3 new versions enabling easy integration of existing fieldbus networks into new bus type wired Profinet installations
HMS Industrial Networks in co-operation with Siemens AG, introduces the new plug-in 1SI CANopen extension module for the Siemens SIMATIC ET200S I/O system. This new module brings CANopen connectivity to the SIMATIC ET200S distributed I/O system, allowing seamless integration of CANopen devices into the Siemens automation architecture.
