                                                    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? |

                                                    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.
