Picking up from yesterday’s video journey through the PROFINET session at the ARC Forum…
Michael Rothwell, Director of Control and Industry Solutions at Phoenix Contact continues the Internet of Things (IoT) story:
Chris Muench, the CEO of C-Labs, continues the IoT theme:
David Greenfield moderated a panel discussion on PROFINET. Panelists included David Loveridge of ICR Engineering, Sam Hoff of Patti Engineering, Dave Heyman of Kuka Assembly & Test, and Peter Karcz of Fori Automation. Topics included safety, security, wireless, and diagnostics. David Greenfield has reported on the latter topic in “Industrial Ethernet: Diagnostics.” http://www.automationworld.com/industrial-ethernet-diagnostics-0#sthash.m9UBkbVf.uxfs But you get the benefit of the full discussion in two parts:
The session concluded with a presentation on process and discrete synergies by Raimund Sommer, Managing Director, Endress+Hauser Process Solutions AG. Watching his presentation will provide the answer to the age-old question: “What do ice cream and Industrial Ethernet have in common.”
You’ve now made it through the entire session. Sadly, you were not able to ask any questions of the panel, but feel free to use the Comments section below to start a conversation.
