EtherCAT P: Interview with Florian Hammel

What is EtherCAT P actually? Which role does ETG play in this game? Florian Hammel: “EtherCAT P is an addition to the EtherCAT “Since our Technical Committee accepted EtherCAT P as technology on the physical layer. P stands for power and addition to EtherCAT last April a lot has happened. All

ETHERCAT P ETHERCAT enables the user to transmit the current via two electrically necessary documents and information to start with the isolated 24V supplies on the Ethernet cable. EtherCAT P is implementation of EtherCAT P are available for our members 100% EtherCAT – and adds the power transmission on the very and are expanded, developed, and enhanced by us same cable. Licensing is free of charge.” continuously. When it comes to EtherCAT P our members can In brief: What are the advantages of EtherCAT P and who count on the support of our team – can benefit from it? the same way they are used to with EtherCAT.” “Using EtherCAT P leads to reduced cabling and lower system costs. Potential error sources while connecting devices are www.ethercat.org/EtherCATP reduced, too: M8 connectors specially designed for EtherCAT P make false connections practically impossible. Substantially it Florian Hammel is EtherCAT and depends on the individual use case and the according EtherCAT P specialist, working at the requirements to implement this technology. EtherCAT P is ETG Headquarters and also chairs the especially interesting for machine parts which now can be ETG Technical Working Group Device & supplied with data and power via one single cable.” Network Description.

ETG publishes official Toyota Motor Corporation specification documents selects EtherCAT

As announced at the Hannover Messe 2016, we've recently Toyota Motor Corporation has selected EtherCAT as its published the draft version of the official EtherCAT P Industrial Ethernet technology of choice and will base Technology specification, together with the extension of its new factories around the world on EtherCAT. all corresponding documents.

ETG Joint Booth at SPS IPC Drives 2016: Increasing Interest

REVIEW Together with 58 co-exhibitors and a total of more than 400 different EtherCAT products we once again sent out a clear message at our ETG Joint Booth at SPS IPC Drives in Hall 2/338: We are the Industrial Ethernet organization exhibiting the widest variety of devices at the same time anywhere. Looking back at a successful tradeshow with an impressive variety of EtherCAT products (incl. Drives, I/O & Gateways, Sensors & Actuators, Master Systems, Development Products & Services) directly on booth. One of our highlights this year was definitely the publication of the EtherCAT P draft specification and corresponding application note (published by Beckhoff) to help ETG members starting their EtherCAT P implementation right now as well as honoring ETG member #4000, KOCH Pac-Systeme GmbH! We’ve made more contacts than last year, which indicates that visitors are looking specifically for EtherCAT and that the interest in EtherCAT products has increased as well. Thus we want to thank all co-exhibitors cordially for their participation and personal work at our ETG Joint Booth! With this in mind we would like to encourage all ETG members to continue their support for our marketing activities in 2017. Fall all those who are interested in showing their products at HANNOVER MESSE 2017: Watch out for the next offer, which will be available soon and send out to all ETG members worldwide.
