C.I.A. Automation and Robotics has extensive experience in the field of advanced automation, proposed as a strategic tool to increase the competitiveness of Italian companies in the world. It offers advanced technologies such as laser scanners, stereoscopic vision equipment and systems that can reproduce a die and copy it directly, automatically recomposing the scanning scattergrams, a very differentiating solution. As most of C.I.A Automation and Robotics applications are specific, they have to interface different kinds of devices in their automatic systems that use different communication protocols. They have chosen HMS. Anybus range flexibility enables them to adapt to any communication protocol easily.

How Guangzhou Metro Line in China connected various monitoring equipment to ControlNet using solutions from Rockwell Automation and the Anybus Communicator from HMS Industrial Networks.

HMS offers customers free access to the Netbiter Argos remote management service, now available in nine languages.

Businesses such as data centers, banks, hospitals and supermarkets need constant access to power. By implementing an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), these businesses make sure that they always have an immediate back-up if the main power should fail. But how do you make sure that the back-up always is operational without physically visiting it every day? Eaton has found a way by using the Netbiter remote management solution from HMS Industrial Networks. It enables Eaton to access to real-time data about each UPS, to offer a faster service and to reduce travelling.

HMS Industrial Networks has recently joined Mitsubishi Electric Europe’s e-F@ctory Alliance as a new partner. HMS is able to provide a fast low-cost solution for interconnecting Mitsubishi automation devices via a wide range of standardised industrial networks, while ensuring the secure exchange of data between those devices, in the form of its “Anybus” gateways, protocol converters and wireless solutions.

Industrial communication technology facilitates plant-wide energy management within automation systems.

CC-Link fieldbus compliancy is key to accessing Asian markets. Thanks to HMS’ CompactCom, it is both easily implemented and all features are fully supported.

HMS Industrial Networks announces the launch of a new partner program. The program targets system integrators, machine builders and other companies wishing to include Anybus gateways and Netbiter remote management solutions in their offering.

The Netbiter^® remote management solution enables users to monitor and control machinery such as power generators, tanks, wind turbines, building applications and base stations from a standard web browser.

Extended release of the Anybus^® Communicator CAN™ enables CAN-devices to be connected to CC-Link, ControlNet, Modus RTU, EtherCAT, Modbus TCP and Profinet IRT.
