At the end of February, PICMG (PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group)—the consortium for open hardware specifications—introduced InterEdge, a modular architecture for process control systems ...

In recent times, process industries such as chemical manufacturing are facing many of the same challenges as those in the discrete manufacturing space. Increasingly stringent competitive pressures ...

The idea of modularity in automation hardware and software has been a long sought-after goal across the manufacturing and processing industries. Taking a tour through any production facility will ...

PARAMUS, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Koch Modular Process Systems, LLC (Koch Modular), a market leading provider of engineered and fabricated modular reaction and mass transfer systems, today announced ...

Motion and motor controllers are such an integral part of machines and automation systems, they often get taken for granted. But new manufacturing and machine-building demands for more modular system ...

Modular and open test architectures enable engineers to build the right solution for each challenge, whether integrating ...

The CS Series of process-control modules provides PID loop control of any process without using a PLC. Modules offer control of temperature, flow, and pressure. Single and dualloop temperature modules ...

A new family of composite cutting and stacking cells are designed to operate as an integral part of automated composite part production lines rather than as solitary units. As such, they bring ...

This publication emphasizes the key cross cutting technological issues associated with instrumentation and control systems and human system interfaces that arise from the specific behaviour and ...

The allure of modular systems is multifaceted, but perhaps the most important aspect is the efficiency. Standardized components, built off-site in specialized facilities reduce material use, minimize ...
