Redefining Industrial Automation

Transforming Manufacturing in Asia Pacific: Insights from ATS Global and Red Hat

Intel's Christopher and Sue Lynn showcased their software-defined factory technologies via an XY Table demo. This demo features Intel's TSN technology and RealSense for real-time factory automation. Partnering with port.de, they demonstrated a system using industrial protocols like PROFINET, EtherCAT, and CC-Link IE TSN. The demo involved catching a falling ball by calculating X and Y positions with Intel RealSense, mapped to servo motors. The system uses CC-Link IE TSN protocol and Intel TSN driver in Linux to ensure time-deterministic operations, achieving low latency and precise control. This highlights Intel's capabilities in meeting stringent real-time requirements for factory automation.
