Omron entwickelt neuen Maschinen-Controller mit Künstlicher Intelligenz (KI)

Omron entwickelt neuen Maschinen-Controller mit Künstlicher Intelligenz (KI).Omron Corporation (Sitz: Shimogyo-Ku, Kyoto. Leitung: Yoshihito Yamada) kündigte heute die Entwicklung eines Maschinen-Controllers an, der mit künstlicher Intelligenz (KI) ausgestattet ist. Dieser KI-Controller erzielt als Erster seiner Art eine Echtzeitintegration der KI-Verarbeitungsfunktionen und der SPS-Funktionalität, die in der Fertigungsumgebung Produktionslinien und Geräte im Mikrosekundentakt steuert. Zur Überwachung des Status der Anlagen und Prozesse kommen Sensoren von Omron zum Einsatz. Somit wird eine sichere Steuerung durch den Controller gewährleistet, die Störungen unterbindet. Der Controller kann untypische Bewegungen von Maschinen vorhersagen.
