Flexibility. Mobility. Reliability. These are things that the ultra low-latency 5G networks brings to the factories of the future. HMS offers industrial routers and connectivity solutions for connecting your industrial devices to a 5G network at your site.
HMS TechTalk - Industrial 5G - Are we there?
5G technology is transforming the manufacturing industry by enabling wireless, real-time communication between machines. This allows for increased flexibility and mobility in factories due to 5G’s ultra-low-latency and reliability. It further promotes automation and eliminates the need for cables, enhancing overall flexibility.
HMS TechTalk - 5G and product offering!
Henrik Arleving, Product manager at Anybus wireless introduces the HMS 5G starter kit.
HMS offers a 5G starterkit which is developed together with Ericsson and their Industry Connect 5G solution. The starterkit includes a wireless 5G router, Ethernet gateway, IO-Link Master, Light tower for IO-Link and distance sensor.
Perfect for trying out 5G at your site or building a first solution.
5G is the first cellular generation which specifically targets machine to machine communications. Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) allows latency below 1 ms on the radio interface as well as availability exceeding 5-nines (99.999%). From an industrial production perspective this type of service will enable functions like motion control, mobile robots control and safety over wireless.
Any type of application requiring fast and reliable data communication. These include:
The main driver for 5G within industrial production is to automate processes which cannot be automated today since they are using wired technology. There is, however, also a need to migrate some of today’s PLC communications from industrial Ethernet to 5G. The driver for this is increased flexibility, increased reliability and reduced cost.
5G PLC communications might only be a small fraction of the total traffic on the 5G factory network. It is, however, the most demanding due to requirements on real time performance and reliability. For PLC communications, it is necessary to have low latency and high availability. This is supported by the 5G new radio (NR) interface.
Dr. Jens Jacobsen presents the evolution of industrial 5G and what implications it will have on industrial automation and manufacturing.
