1 ETSI #67 - The Wireless Factory 13 June 2008 Wireless at Machine Level in Industrial Automation Bruno FORGUE EMEA Marketing Manager

2 The Wireless Factory Wireless at Machine Level Introduction Typical factory data communication model Devices and protocols Wireless for industrial i automation ti Who is? Communication solutions for industrial automation Application and support oriented company Why do customers ask for wireless? Application examples June ETSI - 2

3 Introduction: Typical Factory Data Communication Model Information Technology Dept. IT Systems ERP software Control room PCs HMI software Plant floor Machines Indust. Automation PLC Controllers Sensors Actuators Operator interfaces June ETSI - 3

4 Introduction: Devices and Protocols Equipments to be connected are: Programmable controller: the CPU which controls the machine Operator interface: for interaction between human and machine PC: configuration, programming, maintenance Sensors: convert a physical variable to current or voltage (detect / measure process information to bring to the CPU) Actuators: convert a command to power (motors, valves, heater controlled by the CPU) Equipment 1 Equipment 2 Communication Industrial Communication Protocols Profibus EtherNet/IP Modbus DF1 ControlNet June ETSI - 4

5 Introduction: Wireless for Industrial Automation ti to wirelessly connect business system to the control system to wirelessly access remote plants or stations to wirelessly connect HMI to controllers and devices to wirelessly program, configure, & monitor the system to wirelessly link PLCs for messaging to wirelesly connect remote racks of I/O to wirelessly connect I/O devices, sensors and actuators.

7 Communication Solutions for industrial i automation ti Where Automation Connects More than 20 years of experience Industrial Automation Industrial Protocols Industrial Wireless In partnership with Rockwell Automation, Schneider Electric and other automation and process control leaders June ETSI - 7

8 Who is? Application Oriented Company Bringing innovation Industrial wireless Unique family of high performance solutions Interface gateways High-speed gateways In-rack modules PLC processor has direct access to memory via backplane Benefits for Customer High performances! Ease of implementation! Unequaled Technical Support June ETSI - 8

9 Who is? Support Oriented Company June ETSI - 9

10 Why do customers ask kfor wireless? Installation Maintenance Operation cost reduction Flexibility Moving & Rotating equipments Distance Reliability June ETSI - 10

11 Warehouse June ETSI - 11

12 Logistic Material handling Moving parts Remove data cables from flexible cable runways A lot of metal frames Metal moving parts (cabinets between rows of the warehouse) Reliability, availability (moving cabinet must not loose connection when at stop points). June ETSI - 12

13 Manufacturing June ETSI - 13

14 Manufacturing OVEN OVEN 8 June ETSI - 14

15 Steel foundry June ETSI - 15

16 Coking June ETSI - 16

17 Coking June ETSI - 17

18 Heavy loads handling A1 a1 b1 660 m Wood Ladder B1 June ETSI - 18

19 Heavy load handling Anti-collisions system for heavy load handling With two cranes application fail-safe in event one crane Loses power Allow two portal cranes to work independently d and simultaneously while sharing a common rail track Monitoring and control of Ethernet drives Large number of multicast producer consumer packets per drive June ETSI - 19

20 Material handling No more collisions Protects mechanical installation against potential damages Avoid collisions and repair costs Increase availability Reduce amount of disturbances df l i i and faulty situations Replace slip-ring Improve network availability June ETSI - 20

21 Remote SCADA Tight time frame Private line needed 2 roads crossings No existing path for cables June ETSI - 21

22 Wireless in Industrial Automation Leverage maintenance (Slip ring) Extended network over Widespread area Obstacles Rail way River Highway Moving parts Distance Telecontrol Harsh environment And more Ethernet Serial FHSS IEEE802.11abg Field Devices Protocols June ETSI - 22

23 Wireless at Machine Level Industrial environment constraints for the electronics Temperature, vibration, humidity, EMC Protocols and application specificities Automation specific protocols Functionalities RF reflections / multi-paths (indoor) and obstacles (outdoor) June ETSI - 23

24 One word about standardization di ti processes Safety Class 0: Emergency action (always critical) Control Monitoring NOTE: Class 1: Closed loop regulatory control (often critical) Class 2: Closed loop supervisory control (usually non-critical) Class 3: Open loop control Batch levels* 3 & 4 could be class 2, class 1 or even class 0, depending on function *Batch levels as defined by ISA S88; where L3 = "unit" and L4 = "process cell" Class 4: Flagging Short-term operational consequence (e.g., event-based maintenance) (human in the loop) Class 5: Logging & downloading/uploading No immediate operational consequence (e.g., history collection, SOE, preventive maintenance) Imp portance of mes ssage tim meliness s increas ses June ETSI - 24
