Industrial Automation - It Doesn't Have To... #33

It's Season 4 Episode 1 of Industrial Automation - It Doesn't Have To. 🎉🎉🎉

If you're new to Industrial Protocols, you need to check out this episode.

During the offseason, elliTek signed with a new automation partner, CKD.  CKD provides both Electric and Pneumatic Solutions.

Not only does CKD produce high-quality, long lasting products, but elliTek's engineers have been impressed with CKD's attention to details. 

Tune in to hear why those details are so impressive and why we're talking about Industrial Protocols.  Hint: CKD supports new fieldbus technologies with their manifolds.

• What is a Fieldbus? 
• What is EtherNet/IP and the difference between Ethernet and EtherNet/IP?
• What is TCP and the difference between TCP and TCP/IP.
• What is Modbus and the difference between Modbus, Modbus TCP, and Modbus TCP/IP?
• What protocols do most manufacturers use?

Of course, there are more acronyms. Here's what they mean.

CIP:  Common Industrial Protocol
OVDA:  Open DeviceNet Vendors Association
TCP:  Transmission Control Protocol
