3 good ways to learn more about PROFIBUS, PROFINET, PROFIenergy and PROFISAFE at the User Conference 2010
PROFIBUS, PROFINET, PROFIenergy and ProfiSafe technology
The application of PROFIBUS, PROFINET, PROFIenergy and ProfiSafe technology will be discussed in the annual PROFIBUS User Conference, scheduled for 29-30 June 2010 at Stratford-on-Avon. This major convention for existing and potential users of modern automation technologies offers the choice of three presentation streams, for each delegate to create the most effective and relevant learning experience.
A series of technical presentations offers shared user experience from actual industrial applications, including how to approach implementation of the technology on existing plant, plus other outlines of technical developments and new capabilities. Included in the presentations will be a session specifically devoted to the uses and limitations of wireless communication in automation systems, and other papers will discuss how PROFIBUS systems can be integrated into energy management programmes, particularly in relation to energy efficient drives. Most of the lecturers will be available during the conference for separate discussions on topics that are of particular interest.Â
In a parallel stream, the hands-on workshop sessions give practical demonstrations of the cabling and equipment used on PROFIBUS and PROFINET installations, and show fault finding and remote diagnostics in action. The third learning option is to attend the Exhibition, which offers all types of relevant equipment from the major suppliers, with their experts on hand to answer questions and explain how to apply their solutions on your plant application.
The User Conference is an ideal venue for plant managers, engineers, instrument technicians and automation professionals to meet PROFIBUS and PROFINET users from different companies or industries, to discuss the benefits and techniques that have been applied in different situations: it is also an ideal way to introduce colleagues to the technology, and for them to learn about the practical aspects of applying and using PROFIBUS on a typical plant, in advance of their own projects.
To find out more about the PROFIBUS User Conference, please visit the website, www.profi-bus.co.uk , where a full programme of presentations will shortly be published, and a registration form is available. Alternatively, why not attend the free seminar ‘Practical Aspects of PROFIBUS in Process’ on 17th March, in Camberley, where several of the major suppliers will present an introduction to the products and techniques used to create a PROFIBUS application in the process industries. This one-day seminar includes a few examples of some of the practical demonstrations that will be used at the later User Conference.
