    摘要: A mechanisms for analyzing event based behavior of end-points of a network in an industrial system and a method performed by a control node, the method includes collecting, from the end-points, timestamped event log entries as created by the end-points within a time window. Each respective timestamped event log entry pertains to a respective event performed by one of the end-points. The method includes identifying tuples of correlated events by comparing the timestamped event log entries to each other, thereby providing a mapping between the events and those end-points where the events of each tuple of correlated events are performed.

    摘要: A method of calibrating positions of wheels in an AGV, the method including positioning a second wheel tangentially on an imaginary second circle centered with respect to a center position in which a first wheel is fixed; driving the second wheel a second distance along the second circle such that the AGV rotates about the center position; determining the second distance based on data from a second wheel sensor device of the second wheel; determining an angle of rotation about the center position based on data from a first steering sensor device of the first wheel during the rotation of the AGV; and determining relative positions between the first wheel and the second wheel based on the second distance and the angle of rotation. An AGV is also provided.

    摘要: A measuring circuit for determining the magnitude of a current flowing through a conductor, the measuring circuit having an input terminal pair that can be connected to the current transformer with a first switch, which connects a measuring resistor between the input terminals in a current measuring position, and which, in a voltage measuring position, separates the measuring resistor from at least one of the input terminals, and having an output terminal pair, at which, alternatively, a voltage-dependent measuring voltage present at the input terminal pair or a current-dependent measuring voltage present at a first measuring point of the measuring resistor can be tapped. The measuring circuit includes a changeover switch which can be switched synchronously with the switch. The changeover switch is used to connect an output terminal to the first measuring point in the current measuring position, and to the second measuring point in the voltage measuring position.

    摘要: A data acquisition system for dielectric analysis measurements, including a sensor interface configured to connect to one or more sensors located within an active machining zone of an industrial manufacturing machine, a module processor coupled to the sensor interface and configured to receive measurement values from one or more sensors connected to the sensor interface, a cloud interface coupled to the module processor, and a machine interface coupled to the module processor. The measurement values indicate physical properties of workpieces processed in the active machining zone of an industrial manufacturing machine. The cloud interface is configured to connect to cloud-based resources, and the machine interface is configured to connect to a controller of the industrial manufacturing machine. The module processor is configured to transmit the received measurement values from the one or more dielectric sensors to cloud-based resources via the cloud interface and to transmit manufacturing control signals to the controller of the industrial manufacturing machine via the machine interface, the manufacturing control signals being based on parameters received from cloud-based resources via the cloud interface.
