Applications

Automation is colorful. This is literally true looking at the colorful display of manufacturers in the field of automation. Furthermore, the variety of tasks is more diverse than in any other field of engineering. Transportation, building automation, process automation, factory automation: Which single technology can cover this diversity of different tasks? It’s easy – with AS-Interface.

The potential of AS-Interface can be best demonstrated by looking at some applications. Read about the applications - real success stories written by AS-interface

By the way: We invite all users, manufacturers und institutions to tell us about their successful AS-Interface applications: in real life or tested in laboratories. In transportation, building automation, process automation and factory automation. In green, in yellow or in red. This is the way to show all the universal and colorful possibilities when using AS-Interface. By writing to info@as-interface.net you can share your experiences with us and the AS-Interface community.

 


„Factory 56“ of the Mercedes-Benz Group
ASi-5 makes picking system unique

The development of modern and intuitive picking systems has been a segment of SAFELOG GmbH since the company was founded. A particular focus is on pick-by-light and put-to-light technology. This technology ensures the highest picking performance while actively avoiding picking errors. This is partly possible through ASi-5 communication technology, connecting the control unit with a touchscreen to up to 96 compartments via a unique two-conductor cable. This solution is used in Mercedes-Benz Group AG’s so-called Factory 56 in Sindelfingen.

AS-Interface in chemical Industrie
Production monitoring in EX Zone 0, acetone vapor

Cellulose is a versatile material, the best known and most common application being as the basis for paper production. However, cellulose fibers are also suitable for other products, for example as a raw material for filters. In order to be used as a filter, however, the cellulose requires a pretreatment that also involves the use of the highly explosive acetone. Continuous production control in this environment is difficult, but possible with so-called Namur sensors. In the described plant in the Brazilian state of Sao Paulo, about 1000 of these sensors (EXi) are used.

Robust wiring for special requirements
Camembert manufacturers have been relying on ASi for more than 15 years

It is not for nothing that the food industry has the largest range of AS-i integrated actuators. Among other things, many process valve manufacturers have recognized the advantages of AS-i and integrated them into their products. But what would these excellent solutions be without a reliable infrastructure? In an environment where cleaning is carried out several times a day, even simple flat cable taps and distribution boxes bear a great responsibility.

Production logistics
From Zero to a Hundred

Why did warehouse logistics leader KNAPP change the communication technology for its entire range of production logistics to AS-Interface practically overnight? To increase efficiency and productivity? To decrease assembly time during on-site installation? Or because it allows simple and discrete integration of wiring into system components?
