| Summary: | Recent enhancement of the industrial
communications and networking are possible to apply in
Ethernet networks system at all levels of industrial automation,
especially in the controller level whereby the data exchanges in
real-time communication is mandatory. This paper is about a
study on the development of industrial communications
network based on the Ethernet protocol and thus implement it
into Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) system. The
purpose of this paper is to overcome real-time communication
in which the accessibility of data exchange is very difficult in
terms of retrieving data from other stations and time
consuming. The Ethernet module is installed onto supervisory
OMRON PLC to integrate several of stations in the CIM-70A
system which is located at Robotic Laboratory in Universiti
Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM). The workability of this
communication technique is analyzed and compared with the
conventional serial communication which widely used in
automation networking systems. It is found that, the Ethernet
protocol approach through the communication and integration
of CIM system can be accessed easily and available to be
upgraded at the management and enterprise levels of
industrial automation system. |
