FIRST-CLASS TRAINING COURSES IN INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION

Are you looking for training in PROFIBUS, PROFINET, OPC communications, remote access, condition monitoring and other areas from the field of industrial automation? We will be happy to share our extensive experience with you. FOXON has been involved with industrial automation since 2006.

Our trainers, who are field technicians and application engineers, are faced with everyday problems on our customers' premises. This allows them to gain detailed insight into the issues related to the deployment of all the systems and products that they give training in. That is why our courses offer much more than theoretical training. You receive a lot of information about particular cases, which will help you put this information to good use on your factory floor.

Basic information about our training courses:

Topics

The Basics of PROFIBUS & PROFIBUS Diagnostics, 2 Days

In this course, you will learn the basics of PROFIBUS DP/PA network management and diagnostics using the cutting-edge ProfiTrace 2 analyser from the company PROCENTEC. The course takes roughly 6 hours and includes both the theory and, above all, the practice of PROFIBUS management and diagnostics. It is open to a maximum of 10 participants.

The Basics of PROFINET & PROFINET Diagnostics, 2 Days

All PROFINET components are susceptible to wear and are, by nature, growing obsolete. That is why they require regular predictive maintenance. This course aims to introduce you to the basics of PROFINET communications and diagnostics and the tools for assessing and improving the quality of these communications.

OPC Communications | KEPServerEX | OPC Router

Effective monitoring of technologies and production in every plant relies on an all-in-one method of data collection and processing. One of the most popular communication protocols for this purpose, which enables data exchange between diverse systems, is the OPC protocol. In the past few years, not only the protocol but key components of these communications – OPC servers – have been refined. Some people work with OPC communications in most of their projects. This course is for those who have met OPC on their plant floor, but have not had a chance to learn more about it.

    For many companies, monitoring electric power consumption and the consumption of other commodities is a burning need. Using Power BI (included in Microsoft Office 365), we have prepared demo dashboards for you that will give you an idea of how to analyse consumption retrospectively as well as almost in real time. The demo can also help you understand how to analyse your own data.

    CASE STUDIES - 09/02/2022

    The staff at Kiekert have implemented pre-prepared reports fast and have learnt to create new ones by themselves. Read on to find out how we collect data from Kiekert's S7-1500 PLCs and, using Power BI, provide it for the company's maintenance and management so that they can make better decisions.
