PC-Control: Safety over EtherCAT as basis for plant-wide safety architectures

Production facilities are frequently plants that consist of several process steps, which are each performed by separate machine modules. The local safety functions of the machine modules are usually solved within that module. In addition, safety information must be exchanged plant-wide between the machine modules in order, for example, to implement comprehensive emergency stop functions or to inform upstream and downstream modules about the activation of the stop functions. The TwinSAFE product range from Beckhoff offers intelligent solutions on the basis of the Safety over EtherCAT protocol, both within a module and for plant-wide networking.
