From 22.-24.May 2012 for the second time the fair SPS/IPC/DRIVES Italia took place in Parma. The most successful trade fair of automation, the SPS/IPC/DRIVES in Nuremberg ties with the Italian SPS/IPC/DRIVES Italia to their recipe for success.
The fair covers the entire spectrum at products within the automation range. This reaches from electronic components over complete systems up to integrative automation solutions.. Here all leading manufacturers of the automation industry present themselves. The event place Parma is one of the leading economic centers of north Italy and becomes with the SPS/IPC/DRIVES Italia a branch meeting place for highly-qualified trade and business professionals, which can exchange itself over new technologies and innovative applications. The numbers of the first SPS in 2011 speak a clear language and suggest still large. 302 exhibitors presented here 2011 on approx. 28,000 qm to the 10,844 professional attendees their products and innovations in the context of first Italian SPS/IPC/DRIVES/ITALIA. AS-Interface Italy will also 2012 participate with a common booth at the SPS Italia.
At hall 2/booth K071 AS-Interface Italy and the co-exhibitors Bernecker & Rainer Bihl+Wiedemann LAPP Pepperl+Fuchs Siemens Special: Safety at Work present their innovative products and system solutions. The AS-Interface team invites you for talks with specialists. Inform yourself about new possibilities and solutions round about the AS-Interface system at hall 2 booth K071.

The well known benefits of the AS-Interface profile cable allow a significant time gain in the installation, using the quick contacting piercing technology. The standard of AS-Interface has been extended and besides the cable with a conductor cross section of 1,5 mm², a cable with higher ampacity speaking of 2,5mm² conductor cross section is defined.
In applications with many actuators on long distances the benefits of the new cable pay. Planning AS-Interface networks the Ohm's law has to be considered as well as for all electrical wiring. For this reason the usable power has been limited in certain applications. With the new cable of 2,5 mm² conductor cross section more power can be distributed in the AS-i network..
The black 24V auxiliary power cable commonly used for high power needs is offered with the bigger conductor cross section as well. .
The segment distance of AS-Interface is 100m and does not change by the conductor cross section. In cases bigger networking distances are needed solutions are offered by many suppliers. Solutions like repeater or so called bus termination impedance..

At the SPS IPC Drives 2011 there was a guessing game at the booth of the AS-Interface organization. It was searched for the length of an displayed AS-Interface cable. This action was addressed to the future users of the installation and automation system AS-Interface. An AS-Interface starter kit was waiting for the person who valued the length of the cable most accurate.
Mr. Raphael Klein from the GfE (GfE Gesellschaft für Elektrometallurgie mbH) at Nuremberg has participated. With estimated 73,82m he was next to the actual length of the 74m AS-Interface cable.
Therewith Mr. Klein won the AS-Interface Starter Kit "Student one". As it turns out during the transfer, this was his first encounter with the system. First views of the AS-Interface technology during the handover showed clear savings for the company's typical installations. Especially for the wiring of switch cabinets a lot of time was always needed, which can be reduced with AS-Interface significantly.
The GfE based in Nuremberg is one of the world's leading manufacturer and supplier of high performance metals and materials. With experience and material-scientific know-how the company is creating customized solutions for various industries. GfE currently has a portfolio of over 250 highly intelligent materials for applications such as metal in the areas of engine manufacturing, solar thermal and photovoltaic.

In the last three years the part of AS-Interface solutions for the process technology increased stronger than average. The benefit of the system convinced in combination with application optimized products more and more users.
The many visitors of the booth on the branch trade show "BRAU" last autumn, showed here as well the need for branch special customized solutions and products. Actually the working group process technology took the job to enhance and optimize the solutions for the process technology. Especially in the process automation, some solutions have requirements that could be met with AS-Interface very easy. In the sample of a fermenting cellar this has been already described, see: Vorteile in der Prozesstechnik am Beispiel Gärkeller.PDF

The SPS IPC Drives 2011 ends successfully for the AS-Interface exhibitors Three days long the AS-Interface booth was full of professional visitors, which shows their interest on new automation solutions with AS-Interface. Positive to announce is here a clear raise of visitors as also the quality of the discussions on the AS-interface booth.
The AS-Interface exhibitors are very satisfied with this year's SPS, because the AS-Interface booth was again the central point for contact of technically interested users of automation.
The result of our co-exhibitors, that the users look with great interest for new solutions in the automation area, confirms that the AS-Interface system is the ideal automation solution.
Our co-exhibitors:
shows at the AS-Interface booth their innovations and technology trends for the AS-Interface system.
Since years the AS-International Association is active engaged in the promotion of the trainees, which has started with a "Know-How-challenge" that attempts to encourage technical trainees and academics.
For this year's SPS the AS-Interface organization therefore decided for a competition to introduce the technical academics with AS-Interface.
This competition was only for pupils and students, which finds a large resonance at the AS-Interface booth.
The mission of the competition was to estimate how many meters of the AS-interface cable are inside of a container.
Release and winner of the competition:
Exact 74m of AS-Interface cable were in the container.
With an estimate of 73,82m, Mr. Raphael Klein from Nuremberg was next to and is therewith the winner of the competition.
The AS-International Association congratulates Mr. Klein at its prize, an
which offers all for a quick access in the easy communication with AS-Interface.
