Why enroll

Participants join this seminar to learn how to overcome the limitations of traditional 4-20mA and Fieldbus systems, which are often too slow or complex for modern Industry 4.0 requirements. The session provides a technical roadmap for implementing Ethernet-APL, which allows for a single-pair cable to carry both power and data over long distances (up to 1km) while maintaining intrinsic safety for explosive areas. By attending, engineers and decision-makers gain insights into how "Open Process Automation" (OPA) and standardized communication protocols can reduce installation risks, accelerate deployment, and improve Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE).

Is this seminar for you?

You should take this if

  • You work in Automotive or Industrial Automation
  • You're a Industrial Engineering professional
  • You have some foundational knowledge in the subject
  • You want to build skills in Digital Transformation

You should skip if

  • You're looking for an introductory overview seminar
  • You need a different specialisation outside Industrial Engineering
  • You need live interaction with an instructor

Seminar details

The seminar explores the "real future" of industrial automation, specifically focusing on the transition from legacy analog systems to high-speed, integrated digital infrastructures. The primary focus is on Ethernet Advanced Physical Layer (Ethernet-APL), a game-changing technology that brings standard Ethernet power and speed directly to field devices in hazardous environments. The conference addresses the industry's need for higher measurement precision, faster data transmission, and simplified device handling across sectors like Oil & Gas, Pharmaceuticals, and Power Plants.
