Rockwell Automation Offers Connectivity in Harsh Applications Webinar

December 27, 2019
Today’s trend is all about machines working smart with better connectivity and improved productivity, even so in harsh applications. The ArmorBlock EtherNet/IP I/O and IO-Link blocks built-in nickel-plated zinc die-cast housing works well in harsh operating temperatures to achieve that goal. Users can mount these modules on a machine close to the sensors and actuators to provide shorter cable runs for automotive, material handling, packaging and welding applications. The modular design provides optimization and allows more field devices to be connected to machine applications. With enhanced diagnostics, users can improve uptime and reduce time spent on commissioning and troubleshooting. 

This Rockwell Automation webinar will be presented by Mingjing Ye, product manager for ArmorBlock I/O. He has worked in industrial automation for more than 12 years in various roles such as product manager and programmable logic controller (PLC) programmer. Mingjing received his bachelor’s degree in electrical and electronics from Nanyang Technological University and master of science degree in electrical and computer engineering from National University of Singapore. Additionally, he is a TÜV Certified functional safety engineer in machinery.

The webinar takes place January 20, 20020 from 10:00 - 11:00 am. For registration information, visit the website below.
