Trends in Motion and
Automation
GE-Fanuc is a world leader in automation. In this presentation,
they will provide a view of the trends that will link the world via
software, communications and other information devices.
Communications in
Automation
Eaton Corporation has gone on record as a company who wants to make the
inter-connection of devices to be as simple and straight-forward as
possible. Plug-and-play-like connections will change the way we
tie electrical, hydraulic and motion control together in the
future. Eaton will share their vision of the future.
Linear Motion Component to Systems
Thomson, the original manufacturer of low-friction linear
technology, and Kollmorgen, a leader in high-performance motion control
systems, team up to present a series of motion control tutorials.
The presentations will cover linear motion, servo motors, linear
actuator breakthroughs and who to build a value add system.
The State of Linear Motion –a
Tutorial
Festo will provide you with an overview of the strengths and weaknesses
of a variety of linear motion technologies. Comparisons will be
provided based on performance, life-cycles and price points for
pneumatic, hydraulic and electrical linear motors. Come explore
the future of this rapidly emerging technology.
Mechatronics – The Past and
the Future
Yaskawa invented the term “Mechatronics” in
1969! In this presentation, Yaskawa will describe the world of
motion and electronics that brought us to where we are today and look
into some of the future technologies we may be discussing in 2020.
How to Engage Integrators in
Motion
Control systems integrators play a major role in the development of many
motion control projects. Norm O’Leary, Executive Director of
Control Systems Integrators Association (CSIA), will provide background
on creating alliances and engaging with this influential group.
