9:00am |
10:00am |
Phoenix Contact | Closed, Class Size at Capacity "Surge Protection, Sparks or Smoke?" - Do you have a surge protection power strip on your flat screen TV at home? Then why are you not protecting your Controllers? We have a few cool demonstrations to show you what can happen when you don't incorporate surge protection. Yes, we're going to blow stuff up!! From your Power, to your Signals, to Data and Antenna's, Phoenix Contact can protect your entire facility. Topics covered will include grounding and bonding definitions, NEC code overview, a review of earth grounding methods and the critical nature of proper bonding techniques. |
04 |
10:15am |
11:30am |
Siemens | Closed, Class Size at Capacity "Seeing is Believing" - PLC communication without ladder logic" - Witness live demonstrations on how to connect PLCs from different vendors together using Component Based Automation (CBA) from Siemens. CBA is a technology that allows PLC interlocks to be defined in a flexible, graphical environment that can be modified without changing ladder logic. Add machines, make changes or expand your production process using simple graphical engineering tool- no communications code required! |
05 |
10:15am |
11:15am |
Sick | Closed, Class Size at Capacity "Functional Safety" - The continued advancements in programmable safety devices has made it harder to determine the level of safety compliance in current safety systems. Come and hear how the new safety standards are allowing for clearer and better evaluation of these systems. Get a better understanding of ISO13849 and its resulting Performance Level and how it relates to current US regulations! |
06 |
10:15am |
11:30am |
Phoenix Contact | Closed, Class Size at Capacity "Plant Networking & Security" - This must see seminar will include a brief presentation and hands-on demonstration illustrating the threat to control systems via viruses and malware. Examine the benefits of using easy to install hardware firewalls and secure remote connections for support and remote data acquisition using VPN tunneling. |
07 |
11:45am |
12:30pm |
RFID | "RFID for Factory Floor Automation" - An in depth look complete with photos, technical obstacles overcome, and ROI of applications from manufacturing to mining. This presentation will complete the missing link with many who understand the identification technology concept but haven't really seen how it is applied to applications of manufacturing, medical, consumables, and human safety in the workplace. The speaker is a 20 year veteran in the RFID industry. "I get it now" is the most common comment heard after the presentation, which has been delivered at technology shows from Milan to NYC and Sydney. |
08 |

11:45am |
12:30pm |
Advanced Illumination | Closed, Class Size at Capacity "Optimize Lighting for your Vision Inspection" - Are you frustrated with the "one light does it all" approach, or overwhelmed with the choices of lighting types, techniques and geometries available? There is an old adage that implies "a picture is only as good as its negative" - the same can be said for machine vision lighting. Sample-appropriate lighting allows for little or no image pre-processing, less complexity, and better inspection consistency and robustness. This seminar will familiarize you with the 4 lighting cornerstones - geometry, structure, color and filtering, and we will emphasize application examples. Learn how to scientifically analyze to optimize the lighting, and to develop your own "Standard Lighting Method". |
