Making Optimizations: Profinet Technologies Now Supported by Volktek

In the world of industrial automation and control systems, Profinet has long been recognized as a game-changer. This renowned industrial Ethernet-based communication protocol, known for its high-speed, robust, and reliable capabilities, is now seamlessly integrated with Volktek's cutting-edge solutions.

 

 

Profinet: Powering Industrial Innovation

Profinet, short for Process Field Network, is an open Industrial Ethernet solution based on international standards. It serves as a powerful communication protocol designed to exchange critical data between controllers and devices in automation settings. Profinet is the most widely adopted Industrial Ethernet solution, supporting hundreds of manufacturers and a wide array of products, from PLCs and PACs to drives, robots, and more.

 

Realizing Speed and Determinism with Profinet

In industrial automation, speed and deterministic communication are paramount. Profinet, residing at layer seven of the ISO/OSI model, ensures messages are delivered precisely when expected. While non-time-critical tasks can leverage TCP/IP or UDP/IP-based communication, Profinet employs a real-time channel for time-critical applications, achieving speeds and determinism that significantly enhance performance.

 

Building Industrial Networks with Profinet

Volktek's Profinet-compatible products provide three essential hardware components: controllers, devices, and general infrastructure. These components can be selected from a variety of suppliers, offering flexibility in design. While standard Ethernet cables can be employed, Volktek recommends industrially graded cables to ensure robustness in challenging factory environments. Volktek's solutions are compatible with copper and fiber optic wired media and also support wireless connectivity through Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

 

Configuring Profinet Networks with Ease

Configuring a Profinet network is straightforward, with each controller having an associated engineering tool for setup. While engineering tools may vary across manufacturers, a common process exists for Profinet configuration, ensuring a seamless integration experience.
