Connecting to KUKA Robots in Processing Workstations

Keywords
KUKA Robot, S7-300, DeviceNet, PROFINET
Background
Many factories often have workshops with robots such as ABB, KUKA, and more performing various processes. A client came to SST Automation with a problem connecting their robots to the PLC in their factory. Their factory has many workstations and within each workshop they use KUKA robots. The problem they had was that their existing Siemens PLC was incompatible. The question arose, how can we connect their DeviceNet KUKA robots to their PROFINET Siemens PLC?


Solution
Connecting different protocols to one another is a continued problem within the greater industrial automation industries. However, SST Automation helps bridge that gap with seamless and ideal solutions for industrial communication. With our SSTCOMM brand gateways, we helped provide this client with a robot-oriented communication gateway solution. After thoughtful consideration, our client ultimately chose the SSTCOMM DeviceNet/PROFINET gateway (GT100-PN-DM) to achieve their communication gap.
