Siemens - TIA Portal V19

Siemens has introduced the latest version of its Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) portal, TIA Portal V19. This version offers intuitive motion control and full integration of engineering, control and drives.

Motion control has become even easier with TIA Portal V19. It is intuitive for non-experts and new users. Machines and systems are becoming increasingly complex due to the need for automation and the growing demand for motion control and automation technology.

TIA Portal V19 has new features that improve engineering, such as software units for modularisation and the engineering feature Named Values that enables readable and maintainable code. These enhancements also support the use of SIMATIC CPUs in key segments of mechanical engineering.

With the integrated SIMATIC Motion Interpreter, no extensive programming knowledge is required. It works as a navigation system where the user enters simple sequential motion instructions. The SIMATIC Motion Interpreter then takes over the programming of the motion commands.

The innovative redundant PLCs allow seamless data exchange with different systems via OPC UA communication. The PLC can now act as an OPC UAserver, increasing interoperability with other systems.

TIA Portal V19 allows modules to be integrated into the central rack of the S7-1500R and S7-1500H redundant controllers. This includes, among others, a System Power Supply module. In addition, additional Communication Processors (CP1543-1) can be added to the redundant PLCs, significantly improving system security, and these CP cards can also be used for OPC UA communication to higher-level systems. Integration of existing Profibus hardware with the redundant PLCs is now also possible via the IE/PB Link HA, which acts as an interface between the Profinet and Profibus networks.

With these new capabilities, TIA Portal V19 offers seamless integration, extended functionality and enhanced security for redundant PLC systems, taking industrial automation to the next level.

Siemens SIPLUS

The availability of machines and plants is a basic requirement for productivity. In order to minimize unplanned downtimes, it is necessary to detect the sources of error at an early stage. This is exactly where SIPLUS CMS Condition Monitoring Systems come in: they continuously monitor the condition of mechanical components of your machines – even throughout the entire plant. SIPLUS CMS therefore represents an important step toward the digital factory, where all the players including machines, products and people along the value chain will be networked. SIPLUS CMS working together with MindSphere – the cloud-based, open IoT operating system from Siemens – opens up completely new possibilities. The powerful cloud platform is designed for analyzing large quantities of data and enables machine parks all over the world to be monitored for service purposes in order to reduce their downtimes.

The modular station communicates with a PROFINET controller, e.g., a distributed control system, via a bus coupler. As an option, up to eight PROFIBUS PA segments can be connected to the individual proxy outlets in a compact way. To ensure the individual segments are immune to interference, appropriate shield connection technology is available.
