New AS-Interface organization planned at India

The local AS-Interface user organization at China, Japan and Korea shows also in the Asia area the increasing importance of automation in the local market.

Also India develops rapidly as a production location. The high demand from manufacturer and automation users, which wanted to develop AS-Interface products, shows that it is at the time for a local AS-Interface organization at India, so that we can locally offer our support and assistance within all ranges of automation with AS-Interface.

Geplant ist der Start up für eine lokale Organisation in Indien Ende Oktober 2010.

Sollten Sie Interesse an der lokalen Organisation in Indien haben so setzen Sie sich bitte mit uns unter info@as-interface.net in Verbindung.

"Kostenanalyse der Sicherheitstechnik" at 28.10.2010 Competence Day Safety at Work

"Kostenanalyse der Sicherheitstechnik" is one theme at the Competence Day Safety at Work, at 28.10 2010 at Robotation Academy Hannover.

Install simple and complex safety requirements at optimal costs or

"How to save costs with AS-Interface?"

Exactly that you will find out in the lecture:„Kostenanalyse der Sicherheitstechnik“.

A cost comparison of the safety technology shows you the advantages of AS-Interface Safety at Work and answered the question from when AS-i Safety count themselves.

The simplicity of the system and future security of AS-Interface Safety at Work will convince also you, because only in connection with AS-Interface the installation complexity of the machine reduces.

The Competence Day contains also an accompanying exhibition of the companies:

Bihl+Wiedemann, Euchner, ifm electronic, Jokab Safety, Leuze, Pepperl+Fuchs, Phoenix Contact, Schmersal, Schneider Electric, SICK, Siemens.

AS-Interface Safety at Work Special at SPS magazine

Safety at Work is a safety concept based on the AS-Interface standard for the implementation of applications for the safety of machines and plants.

AS-interface Safety at Work is a successful story. World-wide are more than 80,000 Safety at Work systems installed, more than 600,000 devices are in the use and the growth of safety-related devices lies over 60%.

Even in the automation safety became more and more important. When at the end of 2011 the transition period of the EN 954-1 runs out there are new rules for the safety technology.

Also the SPS magazine shows this theme in his actual August edition with a special to "AS-Interface Safety at Work".

On site 32-37 at the SPS magazine you will find actual articles about AS-Interface Safety at Work, as:

  • Plug and Safe" - Diagnose sichere Ausgänge
  • "Einfach sicher" - Was ändert sich nach EN 954-1
  • "AS-i Sicherheitsmonitore mit Muting-Funktion"

AS-INTERFACE POWER24V offers the cost-effective start to the entrance into the world of automation.

In applications with few E/As dominates still the parallel wiring. Even if AS-Interface would fit for these applications well, some companies don’t want to use a special AS-Interface power supply.

With the possibility to use an already existing 24V power supply also for AS-interface, the communication system captures a further group of users, which could not profit until now from the advantages of such systems.

Accreditation AS-Interface laboratory Leipzig

The AS-Interface accreditation provides every two years an investigation of the test laboratories. The AS-Interface laboratory Leipzig (Steinbeis-Transferzentrum) was examined and the accreditation of the laboratory is confirmed. The continuation of the certification test in Leipzig is ensured.

Since the beginning the laboratory Leipzig tested AS-Interface products. Therewith it contribute essential to the fact that the number of certified AS-Interface products meanwhile lays over 1500. A success that consists in demanding tests closed to the application. All components of an AS-Interface network could be tested and award a certification. Certified products may be signed with the shadow-logo and a verification number.

Having certified AS-Interface products the user can rely on the compliance to the specification. Only technical correct products pass the test.

Japan: AS-Interface keeping road of success

On June 24 2010, the annual board meeting and the member’s assembly of AS-Interface Japan took place in Tokyo. AS-i Japan, behind Germany, the second largest User organization worldwide, defined the targets for automation market Japan...

AS-Interface is the Standard for the Sensor/Actuator level in Japan. This shows up in the approval lists of Japanese Car Manufacturers, many machine and plant equipment manufacturers and since two years now in the country specific AS-Interface standard. The Japanese automation market is general different to the European automation market, because on the Fieldbus level CC-Link is the market leader. This shows more than other things that the openness to all Fieldbus systems and Ethernet solutions is making AS-Interface the solution for the Sensor Actuator level.

Besides the action plan for activities in education and training, the preparation for the 10 years anniversary of the organization in 2011 have been on the agenda.

Events like trade fairs, training and contact persons you find actual any time on www.as-interface.net.

1500 Certificates for AS-Interface Products

The wide product range of compatible AS-Interface devices has a good share to many system solutions. The certification is a sign for compatibility. Devices of more than 300 Members worldwide demonstrate their consequent implementation of the AS-Interface specification.

More than 50 Certificates have been issued by the certification office of the AS-Interface Organization this year. With this, the number of signed certificates increased to more than 1500 certificates. Every certificate is good for another brick that enlarges the number of products available. Certified products may be marked with the AS-Interface certification sign (sometimes named shadow logo) and the certification number.
