| Danaher Motion to Launch System Control Software At Hannover Fair |
Enables simplified operation, optimized machine performance WOOD DALE, IL – April 3, 2006 – Danaher Motion will highlight its system control and system solution expertise in Hall 14, Stand J24 at the Hannover Fair on April 24-28, 2006 in Hannover, Germany. Danaher Motion will launch its new SERVOSHAFT software package for simplifying system programming, and will illustrate its capabilities with an animated, multi-axis system consisting entirely of Danaher Motion components. Danaher Motion will also appear as a co-exhibitor at special presentations for the Sercos Special Interest Group (Hall 9, Stand A43) and the EtherCat Technology Group (Hall 9, Stand F13). SERVOSHAFT software enables users to run all three main functions of a control system on their own computers: data monitoring and collection on the PC (SCADA function), the PLC and motion control. In addition, a graphical user interface simplifies operation and considerably reduces programming time while making it easier to optimize machine performance. SERVOSHAFT makes it easy to switch from old, mechanical control systems to ultra-modern, multi-axis systems. The Soft PLC in the SERVOSHAFT software package meets IEC standard 61131-3 and supports the SFC, FBD, LD, ST and IL programming languages. The motion control solution also included in the package uses a graphical, highly intuitive programming language. It can be used to synchronize over 200 axes with the most complex motion relationships. An OPC server enables communication with each SCADA system and the platform also supports data exchange with PROFIBUS and CANopen. The integrated development tools include a complete set of IEC 61131-3 editor programs and a particularly fast compiler program. The graphic Motion Editor program has access to a comprehensive group of movements. The package also includes online troubleshooting in conjunction with a soft oscilloscope. About Danaher Motion Danaher Motion is a leading global manufacturer of motion control products that improve the efficiency and productivity of complex manufacturing operations. Danaher Motion’s product innovations have been revolutionizing the motion control industry for over 60 years through trusted brand names including Dover, Kollmorgen, Portescap, and Thomson. Danaher Motion is a strategic business platform of the Danaher Corporation (NYSE:DHR), a manufacturer of process and environmental controls, tools and industrial components. |
