Overhead cranes & cranes

The automation of lifting equipment has become essential for manufacturers: it allows them to increase their efficiencies and to provide more safety
to their staff.
ACKSYS WiFi solutions guarantee secure, seamless and high-speed communication between the various fixed and mobile elements.
Based on the latest WiFi technologies, ACKSYS routers provide excellent wave propagation in industrial environments (indoor & outdoor), as well as increased reliability of the radio link.
They allow real-time transmission of all the data over a single WiFi link (supervision, IIoT, video, remote I/O…).

 

APPLICATION HIGHLIGHTS

 

> INTEGRATION FLEXIBILITY
– Point-to-point, mesh or infrastructure modes
– Transmission power adjustable according to distances

> A SINGLE WIFI LINK FOR ALL DATA
Streams mutualization & isolation (control/command, video, supervision, IIoT)
– Supports PROFIsafe, SafeEthernet…

> SEAMLESS WIFI COMMUNICATION
– PER < 0.1% thanks to dual radio roaming
– Redundancy (VRRP, RSTP)
– Increased reliability of the radio link (MIMO technology)

 

 

> HIGH AVAILABILITY
Dual power supply input
– Configuration stored on a removable key
– MTBF : 780 000 hours

> RESILIENCE TO HARSH ENVIRONMENTS
– IP66, shocks and vibrations proof (EN 61373)
– Operation between -40°C & +70°C (EN 60068-2)
– M12 rugged connectors

> CYBERSECURITY
