Mixed profiles, no mechanical changeover: Joseph Machine Company cracks the code on flexible machining. Lot size 1 is standard in window and door production and usually forces mechanical changeovers. In the jFlex SFMC, each of four CNC zones has its own motion control and tooling, so mixed profiles run in parallel: 32 axes synchronized over EtherCAT via TwinCAT 3. Machine-mounted I/O cut cabling by ~50%. See on our window production machines page how one control platform covers cutting, welding, trimming and fitting insertion — not one machine at a time, but the full line. #pcbasedcontrol #ethercat #twincat #cnc #windowmanufacturing #doormanufacturing #machinebuilding #beckhoff
Von Studierenden gebauter Billardroboter versenkt Kugeln mit Technik von Beckhoff Was entsteht, wenn Technikbegeisterung auf ein praxisnahes Studium trifft? Zum Beispiel der autonome Roboter B.R.E.A.K., der eigenständig Billard spielen kann. Entwickelt wurde B.R.E.A.K. von unseren Studierenden Antoine, Ben, Michael und Niklas im 6. und 7. Semester ihres praxisintegrierten Studiengangs Mechatronik/Automatisierung am Campus Gütersloh der Hochschule Bielefeld. So funktioniert’s: Eine Industriekamera erfasst den Billardtisch, die in Python programmierte Software wählt eine Kugel aus und berechnet den optimalen Stoß. Per ADS wird das Ergebnis an eine PC-basierte Steuerung mit TwinCAT übergeben – und die Kugel versenkt. Die größte Herausforderung? Die Erfassung der Kugeln, denn beim Poolbillard entscheiden Bruchteile eines Millimeters über den Erfolg. Das ursprüngliche Ziel von 1 mm Genauigkeit reichte den Studierenden nicht – sie legten die Messlatte höher. Das Ergebnis kann sich sehen lassen: Mit 0,2 mm Wiederholgenauigkeit und einer Positioniergenauigkeit von 0,5 mm erzielt ihr Roboter eine Trefferquote von rund 80 %. Interesse, selbst an solchen Projekten zu arbeiten? Wir zeigen dir, wie ein praxisintegriertes Studium im Bereich Automatisierung bei Beckhoff aussieht: https://lnkd.in/eGB25-rD Für die großartige Arbeit hinter der Kamera, in der Regie und der Postproduktion zeigt sich die Videoagentur PHYF verantwortlich.

Today marks a fresh chapter for Siemens Belgium-Luxembourg! Exactly 128 years after our very first office opened its doors in Brussels, we gathered this morning at Researchpark Zellik alongside Flemish Minister-President Matthias Diependaele to cut the ribbon at the construction site of our new Belgian headquarters. We held a press conference to share our plans and partnership with the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), Ghelamco, and Green Energy Park vzw (GEP). We deliberately chose a location where businesses, researchers, students, and start-ups cross paths and collaborate. This is how we continue building a powerful innovation ecosystem that nurtures talent, empowers customers and partners, and accelerates technological progress. We'll keep you posted on the progress!

Chocolate covered, drizzled with cream or served simply in a picnic basket this summer🍓☀️ Most of us don't think twice about how strawberries make it from greenhouse to table. But harvesting the perfect strawberry isn’t as simple as it seems. At Farma Ráječek in the Czech Republic, #SiemensXcelerator is helping bridge the physical and digital worlds of farming. Together with NVIDIA Omniverse, we’re enabling a #DigitalTwin of the growing environment, where AI can be trained to monitor plant health, detect pests and diseases, and identify ripe fruit before robots ever enter the greenhouse. Equipped with our technology, the Fravebot Scout and Fravebot Harvestor can then put those insights into action in the real world, allowing farmers to accelerate innovation, optimise resources and support more sustainable crop production. Turns out #IndustrialAI has a sweet side, too🤖 | 15 commentaires sur LinkedIn
