The future of manufacturing revolves around the concept of a smart factory where humans are largely removed from the manufacturing process, save for data engineers and machinery technicians. While this remains a pipe dream today, many factories are implementing Industry 4.0 and lights-out manufacturing techniques at a gradual pace. Increasingly motion control applications served by pneumatic power are being usurped by servos, in part due to the decreased costs of power electronics and motor components. Additionally, closed-loop servos can provide more operations feedback to an interface or user.
Automation is only possible through remote diagnostics that not only provide machine monitoring, but machine optimization or changes as well. This allows engineers to change operating practices of machines, so manufacturing can adapt to situations like power outage, machinery downtime or other interruptions. The design and testing of future machinery is most likely to occur in the digital space. In-field machinery can return diagnostic or performance information to manufacturers and analyzers will run operation tests on digital twins. It can be difficult to integrate complex motion control sequences or robots into industrial automation needs. Many suppliers are retuning programming software for more technology modules.
At this juncture, there are a wide variety of solution providers entering the industry with a set of advanced motion control systems. To help companies navigate through the best-of-breed motion control systems solution providers, Manufacturing Technology Insights has compiled a list of ‘Top 10 Motion Control Systems Solution Providers in Europe – 2021.’ The enlisted organizations offer motion control solutions for diverse industrial applications.
