__PLC interfaces connect your machines to ERP and logistics systems. This results in end-to-end, automated data flows that intelligently network orders, material and production. For maximum transparency, high process reliability and efficient value creation – from order to production.
Reliable system integration for today's production environments
Fehr's PLC interfaces enable stable communication between machines, warehouse technology and higher-level IT systems. Order data, material information and machine status are automatically synchronized and ensure a continuous digital process chain.
Digital networking for efficient production and material flows
With PLC interfaces from Fehr, you integrate machines, logistics systems and IT platforms into a stable, scalable system landscape – for transparent processes and future-proof Industry 4.0 production.
Typical applications
-
Automated machine tools
Machines such as saws, lasers, punching machines or milling are integrated into the digital material and production flow via SPS interfaces. Job data, material status and machine messages are automatically exchanged, so that processes are synchronized and downtimes reduced.
-
Conveying and handling systems
Conveyor technology, cranes or shuttle systems are integrated into higher-level logistics and production systems via PLC interfaces. Material movements are automated, optimally timed and coordinated with storage, transport and production processes.
-
End-to-end process chains between warehouse and production
From incoming goods to warehouses and conveyor technology to processing machines: all systems are digitally networked. Material flows can thus be transparently planned, monitored and controlled in real time.
-
Hybrid manufacturing environments
Manual workstations and automated systems are integrated into a common system landscape. PLC interfaces ensure that even mixed process chains from man and machine work together in a stable, transparent and efficient manner.
-
Machine Feedback and Production Data
Machine status, quantities or fault messages are automatically reported back to higher-level systems. This results in transparent production data that enable precise planning, monitoring and continuous process optimization.
How your intralogistics benefit
-
Continuous data flow
Eliminate manual interfaces. PLC interfaces automatically transfer order, material and status data between machines, logistics systems and ERP.
-
Vendor-independent integration
The solution combines machines and controls from a wide variety of manufacturers. New systems can be easily integrated without changing existing systems.
-
Stable and safe operation
Robust control logic, standardized interfaces and redundant mechanisms ensure stable system communication and high availability.
-
Transparent production processes
Machine status, orders and material movements are continuously monitored. Deviations or bottlenecks are immediately visible.
-
Fewer errors, more efficiency
Digital data transfers replace manual input and reduce transmission errors in production and logistics.
-
Scalable for any production structure
Whether individual machines, production cells or complete production lines – PLC interfaces grow flexibly with your production.
