We at müller+krahmer have many years of experience in testing pneumatic components. The range of devices we test includes simple directional control valves as well as high-precision proportional valves, valve terminals, intelligent pneumatic sensors with bus interfaces, components for industrial applications as well as for installation in road and rail vehicles. The test methods and […]

LabVIEW and Siemens S7 – preferably via Profinet

It is by far the most widely used PLC in Europe – the Siemens S7. It is therefore not surprising that it is also used on many test benches for both central and peripheral tasks. And the number of communication variants is almost as large as the number of applications. Many proprietary solutions are used […]

From Profinet to EtherCAT, SERCOS III or Ethernet/IP within seconds

Once created, most fieldbus applications remain unchanged – the bus topology rarely changes and the protocol never does. The situation is quite different on test benches where devices with different bus interfaces are tested. Unless separate hardware and software is to be installed for each bus protocol at great expense, the only remaining option is […]

Connecting LabVIEW to Profinet, Ethernet/IP, EtherCAT and other Real-Time Ethernet Fieldbuses

Interfaces communicating with diverse fieldbuses are crucial for the integration of LabVIEW in modern networked production. While the capabilities of LabVIEW and NI hardware in the processing of analog signals are undisputed, the situation is different when it comes to connecting Real-Time Ethernet buses. Numerous forum discussions and questions from our customers prove this. For […]
