Phoenix - Functional expansion of PLCnext controllers with a left-side safety module
An efficient solution for distributed safety applications
The AXC F XT SPLC 1000 - SPLC 1000 for short - has been developed as a dedicated safety controller that is primarily used in a distributed safety system. The new module uses the black channel principle to communicate with other Profisafe devices. This safety controller can be seamlessly integrated into the PLCnext-Technology open ecosystem.
Use to the highest safety level
The SPLC 1000 is a full-fledged safety controller that meets the highest safety level (SIL 3 and PL e respectively). The SPLC contains two separate and distinct processors based on the ARM Cortex M4 architecture. The SPLC 1000 is ideally suited for the implementation of smaller distributed applications. The SPLC 1000 can operate up to 32 Profisafe devices.
Simultaneous execution of different communication paths
Although the computational intensity is decreasing in a distributed application, it is becoming increasingly important to manage additional communication paths. This is the main reason why the SPLC 1000 supports Profisafe. The SPLC can simultaneously assume both the role of Profisafe controller (F-Host) and F-Device
Simpler programming with one unified engineering tool
Due to the small width of 45 mm for the SPLC 1000, in combination with the AXC F 2152 you have a full-fledged safety control system only 90 mm wide. Moreover, the whole is fully programmable with one programming package PLCnext Engineer. Code for the AXC F 2152 can be programmed both in IEC 61131-3 and in a higher programming language. In addition, we use the same tool to also build the safety software from standard safety blocks or in Safe-C. The safety and control software are in one project.

Siemens - SINAMICS G220 variable speed drive now also in IP55Read moreIn addition to the previously released IP20 variant of the SINAMICS G220 variable speed drive, the IP55 version of this innovative drive is now also available. This version comes standard with coated circuit boards that make the inverter resistant even outside the control cabinet to aggressive influences in a harsh industrial environment. As an option, a housing-mounted isolating switch can also be supplied to ensure safe disconnection of voltage without any other external components.

Dymotec - Open Lines in a ‘Perfect Storm’Read moreCOVID-19 and global component scarcity threw the industry into a ‘perfect storm’. Industrial automator Dymotec and Breemes kept the phone lines constantly open to tackle the scarcity problem together with creativity and proactivity. Dymotec in Olen (B) focuses on industrial automation spanning a broad spectrum of industries, from food and pharma to logistics and metal. The company has been around for 30 years and joined the Jeco Energies Group in 2022. Dymotec now has some 50 employees and also has a flexible shell with technicians, programmers and project engineers. Ever since its establishment, the company from Kempen has had a relationship with (the predecessors of) Breemes.

Stimac - Good technical support for ever-changing specificationsRead moreIf the description for an automation project is clear from the start, it is easy for the industrial automation specialist to give it substance. In practice, however, specifications often change during the course of a project. This happened to Stimac/SNK when designing the control technology for a horticultural machine. For the problems that arose during the process, itsme quickly provided Stimac/SNK with a solution. “When a customer calls us, we respond immediately. So it’s nice to have a supplier like itsme who can also help immediately.”
