Driving Logic: Built-In PLC Functionality in Danfoss Drives
Traditionally, Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) manage motor speed and torque, while Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) take care of the decision-making and sequencing. Now, that line is blurring with built-in PLC functionality in Danfoss Drives – all available...
What is Safe Torque Off? The LED Controls guide to STO
Safe Torque Off is a safety feature built into many Variable Speed Drives (VSDs) and servo drives. It prevents the motor from generating torque – which means it can’t turn – even if it’s still powered. When STO is active, the drive’s...
Cyber Security: Future-Proofing Industry 4.0 with Danfoss iC7
Connected factories are productive factories. Data from drives, relays and sensors helps you save energy, prevent downtime, and react fast. These same networks that help keep your systems running can, however, expose your equipment to cyber security risks. This...
What Are Industrial Communication Protocols? The Complete LED Controls Guide to ICPs.
“Communication Protocols” literally means “rules for talking”. So, Industrial Communication Protocols means rules for talking in industry. This isn’t about trying not to offend someone in a meeting or shouting to be heard on the factory...
