PROFIBUS-Inspektor®: Continuous Bus Monitoring, Condition-based Maintenance

Products and Solutions for Industrial Automation

In industrial automation, Softing is a specialist for field bus technology and has established itself as a competent partner for networking automation systems and control solutions.

In field bus technology, we are experts for the PROFIBUS, CAN bus with CAN / CANopen / DeviceNet and FOUNDATION fieldbus. Our wide range of expertise also includes Real-Time-Ethernet Systems such as PROFINET IO, EtherNet/IP, ETHERNET Powerlink and EtherCAT.

We provide our customers with solutions to connect devices, controls and systems with the above communication systems and to implement diagnostics - from protocol software and processor solutions, to PC interface boards and gateways as a mediator between field bus systems and Ethernet, to diagnostic tools.

With the network diagnostic products we support you with tools for the determination of signal quality (cable tester PB-T3 and CAN-BT) as well as with tools for protocol analysis (BC-400-PB buscheck and X-Analyser). Thereby the PB-T3 PROFIBUS cable tester fascinates with its comprehensive graphical representation of the measurement results. The PB-T3 cable tester determines this measurement non-reactive during operation. Thereby the PB-T3 cable tester helps to localize errors in PROFIBUS wiring as well as other electrical errors, thus to prevent their consequences such us station failure or even plant shutdowns. In a handy carrying case the PB-T3 cable tester is the ideal tool for your commissioning and maintenance tasks.

Industrielle Automatisierung

Softing supports the supplementary software technologies for simple, manufacturer-independent communication between systems and with devices such as OPC (openness, productivity, collaboration) and FDT (field device tool) with its own tool kits and the necessary components.

Of course, we are also a dependable partner for your specific projects. We support you with our wide range of services from seminars, feasibility studies, certifications, hardware and software developments, and on-site optimization of your systems.
