Train brake test rig - just one instead of three PCs

Discovery Technologies Ltd (Switzerland) operates a high throughput test system which is unique worldwide. Amidst countless chemical connections, it finds the one which interacts with a biological target molecule - a piece of detective work tantamount to the proverbial "needle in the haystack". An equally innovative automation is just as much an essential part of this innovative test method: PC-based Automation from Siemens. The Software PLC also proves its performance in time-critical processes. The mechanical and software integration of the new technology including its integration in the master process control system was accomplished in no time at all.

High throughput test system: effective detective work

Discovery Technologies Ltd (Schweiz) betreibt eine weltweit einzigartige Hochdurchsatzprüfanlage. Sie findet unter zahllosen chemischen Verbindungen die heraus, die mit einem biologischen Zielmolekül Interaktionen eingeht - eine Detektivarbeit wie die sprichwörtliche Suche nach der "Nadel im Heuhaufen". Zu diesem innovativen Prüfverfahren gehört selbstverständlich eine ebenso innovative Automatisierung: PC-based Automation von Siemens. Die Software PLC bewährt sich auch bei zeitkritischen Prozessen. Die mechanische und softwaremäÃige Integration der neuen Technologie inklusive deren Integration ins übergeordnete Prozessleitsystem ging in wenigen Tagen über die Bühne.

Crashtest - everything stays in one piece

Crashtests in the automotive industry in which nothing is damaged save enormously on costs. Sudden braking is replaced by equally fast acceleration, a clever idea which is very difficult to put into practice. Because different technologies need to be exactly coordinated: the software for the high-speed range which incoroprates the know-how of Instron Schenk in Darmstadt, the control and regulation of upstream and downstream processes, data processing, visualization and archiving. The common platform for these technologies is PC-based Automation von Siemens.
