Point-to-point I/O can significantly increase pulp mill productivity


project description

A pulp mill uses PLCs and I/Os to collect sensed data, and I/O cabling can be as long as 100 feet or even across the factory floor. This system has been running for many years, but the replacement cost of its I/O and the entire wiring system is too high. For this reason, the pulp mill decided to use Moxa's intelligent I/O products. Its more economical cable replacement solution can help factories use existing Ethernet networks, combine WiFi networks, and send sensor data back using TCP/IP packets. PLC.


Moxa solution

The Pulp Mill decided to use the existing Ethernet network architecture and use Moxa ioLogik E1200 Ethernet remote I/O with point-to-point input-output signal mapping capabilities to reduce overall system costs. The ioLogik E1200 Smart Remote I/O supports channel mapping, and a pair of transmit and receive I/Os can simultaneously transmit multiple targets over Ethernet and create a separate destination port for each channel image. This technology provides greater flexibility for installing ioLogik under a router or firewall.


In addition, remote intelligent I/O devices can copy digital input signals and analog input signals to remote output modules based on any TCP/IP communication medium without the need for additional controllers or servers. One of the advantages of using TCP/IP is that you can use existing Ethernet networks to build sensor networks without additional wiring.
