This years's news:

With XPlanar, Beckhoff shows a transport system that sets new benchmarks: free-floating planar movers move jerk-free and without contact at up to 4 m/s over planar tiles arranged in an arbitrary layout. Travelling magnetic fields provide for exact and highlydynamic positioning. The result: maximum freedom in product transport, maximum flexibility in positioning and optimized machine and plant design.

Beckhoff presents a fieldbus solution designed for high-performance machines and highly complex applications: EtherCAT G. Building on the principle of the successful EtherCAT technology, it makes speeds of 1 Gbit/s or 10 Gbit/s available. Both performance levels can be used as system-compliant supplements to the EtherCAT technology. For this purpose, the branch concept enables the integration of 100 Mbit/s EtherCAT segments and reduces the propagation delay times in large networks through parallel processing of the segments.

With the EtherCAT measurement modules from the ELM series, Beckhoff is presenting high-performance measurement technology that integrates itself directly into the control system. The ELM modules are extremely accurate, fast, robust and support a wide range of applications in industrial measurement technology that could previously only be implemented with expensive special devices.

TwinCAT/BSD: Operating system for Industrial PCs
Supports both 32- and 64-bit platforms
An alternative operating system – TwinCAT/BSD – will be available for all Beckhoff Industrial PC platforms. TwinCAT/BSD combines the TwinCAT runtime with FreeBSD, an industrially tested and reliable open source operating system.

For many years, Windows CE was the basic operating system for all Beckhoff Industrial PCs. With the foreseeable end of Windows CE, Beckhoff is presenting at an early stage a successor that combines the advantages of Windows CE – inexpensive use on all platforms – with the advantages of the large Windows systems. In addition to a successor to Windows CE, Beckhoff thus also offers an alternative to Windows 7 and Windows 10.

The series of ultra-compact Industrial PCs that was launched with the C6015 has been highly successfully positioned in the market because of its flexible application possibilities. The C6017 multi-core device offers further optional interfaces (up to 2 x RJ45, 2 x USB 2.0), an optional 1-second UPS, or a combination of additional interfaces and 1-second UPS, all in a housing that still measures only 82mm x 82mm x 66mm.

With universal multi-core support, the C6017 can be used simultaneously for high-performance automation, visualisation and communication applications. Flexible installation options of the PC with virtually free orientation of the connection level allow for various installation scenarios, even in the smallest of spaces.

The C6025 ultra-compact Industrial PC is designed as a fanless device and offers the high Intel® Core™ i computing power despite its small dimensions of 82 x 127 x 40 mm. The Intel® Core™ i U processors with up to four processor cores form the basis for this, because despite their Core™ i properties their power consumption is much lower compared with the other processors from the series. Combined with the modern cooling concept, the power losses associated with the high computing performance can be dissipated entirely passively – via a one-sided cooling surface, making the C6025 suitable for a temperature range of up to 50 °C. Within the C60xx series, it combines the C6015’s compactness and lack of a fan with the high performance of the C6030 and thus ideally closes the previous gap in the Beckhoff PC portfolio in an ideal way.

C6032: Ultra-compact Industrial PC
For high computing performance requirements
The C6032 Industrial PC extends the range of ultra-compact Industrial PCs by a high-performance modular device. The C6032 adds a further circuit board level to the C6030 single-board Industrial PC for accommodation of modular interface and function extensions. With the use of compact PCIe modules the C6032 can be adapted perfectly to the requirement profile of the application. Through the use of Intel® Core™ i processors of the 6th and 7th Generation, the C6032 is prepared for extensive axis controls, complex HMI applications, extremely short cycle times or the handling of large data volumes. The high computing performance, extending up to Core™ i7 with four 3.6 GHz cores, is suitable for virtually every automation and visualisation task.
