Find out about cutting-edge developments in industrial automation and network technology by checking out the CC-Link Partner Association’s (CLPA) latest articles.
In the ever-evolving landscape of digital manufacturing, staying at the forefront of technological advancements is not just a choice but a necessity. The CLPA has been a beacon of innovation, consistently contributing groundbreaking insights and leading industrial communications solutions to industry. As we dive into the latest articles published by the CLPA across key magazines, we invite you to explore a world where connectivity, efficiency, and transformative technologies converge.
This month, we focus on how cutting-edge network technologies are reshaping motion control to enhance manufacturing processes.
What do the Latest Technology Trends Mean for Industries?
When Control Design readers asked how the acceptance of industrial networks, especially ones that are deterministic, has improved motion control, our experts at the CLPA Americas provided an in-depth overview. They explored the latest capabilities of modern network technologies and what the future holds for advanced motion applications, explaining the key role that bandwidth, Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), and openness have:

Here’s Why You Should Equip Your Robots with TSN.
Future-oriented motion control applications do not solely include drives, but can also leverage robots to automatically perform a variety of tasks with high repeatability and positioning accuracy. In this article from Robotics Tomorrow, we discuss how TSN can help develop value-adding, robotized solutions and interconnected motion control systems:

Case studies: Improving and Optimizing Manufacturing Operations
The benefits of TSN and deterministic networks extend far beyond theory into tangible business advantages. Exploring two interesting case studies, we showcase the positive impact that advanced industrial communications can have on real-world operations.
For example, our CC-Link IE TSN open network technology with TSN functions helped a leading provider of automated systems for footwear production, Orisol, futureproof its offering to drive both its customers and its own competitiveness.
The use of this solution and compatible industrial automation components in Orisol’s new machine led to internal machine communications speed increasing 220x, shortening execution time by 7x and application time by 12x, as well as offering synchronization accuracy of 1 millisecond.
