Our new initiative "Technique for Breakfast" presents the first Session.

This Session provides a technical overview of the advantages and innovations that PROFINET technology offers your automation and production processes.

PROFINET is using Industrial Ethernet as communication medium, which has a lot of myths and grey areas for a lot of users like: cabling, security, determinism and speed. But there are more important aspects nobody is willing to answer: will maintenance activities change?, what happens when the cable has a disturbance?, the solution for process automation, investment costs and how many manufacturers are supplying products?

What is PROFINET?
PROFINET is an Industrial Ethernet based standard for automation that includes plant-wide IO communication, plant-to-office communication, and equipment-to-equipment integration. PROFINET can simultaneously handle standard TCP/IP and real-time transmissions at sub-millisecond speeds. Using proxy technology it easily connects to other Fieldbussystems liek PROFIBUS; thus protecting the existing investments in plant equipment and networks.
