ABCO Integrates NI PACs with Allen Bradley PLCs for Automotive Sensor
NI LabVIEW DataSocket technology and Allen Bradley RSLinx OPC server make automotive integration with NI PAC hardware and traditional PLCs more efficient.
Author(s):
Kellie Hutchinson - ABCO Automation, Inc.
Industry:
Machines/Mechanics, Automotive
Products:
PXI/CompactPCI, LabVIEW,
The Challenge:
Developing a high-speed, accurate, and open assembly line tester for automotive sensor assemblies that will acquire and analyze waveform data and communicate with an existing PLC-based control system.
The Solution:
Using National Instruments programmable automation controller (PAC) platforms based on PC- technology to deliver a full-line sensor assembly and test system solution to meet rigorous customer requirements.
"PC-based technology and the powerful LabVIEW development environment offer speed, performance, more simple development, and most importantly, interoperability with existing systems."
