Interconnecting Matlab with TwinCAT
نویسنده
چکیده
The use of networked control systems is very modern in industrial control. The evolution of computer networks, the increase of transfer speed and noise resistance caused the installation of Ethernet technologies in industry more frequent [1]. The most frequently used standard for interconnecting Matlab with industrial devices is the OPC standard. Our goal was to design a Matlab toolbox for communication with TwinCAT without the use of OPC. Key-Words: EtherCAT, TwinCAT, Matlab, Simulink, Networked Control Systems

Merger of Motion Control, PLC and robotics on one CPU
The TwinCAT Supplement ‘TwinCAT Kinematic Transformation’ is presented in this application example. This supplement makes it possible to compute robot kinematics together with the PLC and Motion Control on one PC-based CPU. Analogous to the TwinCAT Motion Control package (integration of the drive control in the controller), a robot kinematics is configured and parameterised with the ‘Kinematic ...
متن کاملRealization of a generalized modeling method for ungrounded power systems in Matlab/Simulink
Matlab/Simulink provides a customized environment to realize a generalized modeling method previously developed by the authors for ungrounded power systems. Problems of building component models with function blocks and interconnecting them with algebraic loops in Matlab/Simulink are discussed. The system model of a reduced ring shipboard power system is built in Matlab/Simulink according to th...

متن کاملAn Integrated Method for the Geometric Inspection of Wind Turbine Hubs with
Wind turbine manufacturing requires the assembly of large mechanical components, which is crucial to inspect along the production line in order to prevent high reparation costs afterwards. A critical component in this process is the turbine hub, which supports the wind blades and ball bearings allowing the pitch motion. At present, hub inspection is a manual task, which requires expert operator...
متن کاملGraph-Based Modelling on the Robustness of Interconnected Networks under Attack
In this report a number of graph theoretical concepts are introduced and their relevance to network modelling is discussed, in particular the ability to capture the robustness of an internetwork. A novel graph model is described that successully generates networks with realistic properties, in order to simulate various internetwork scenarios. The main objective was to devise a more robust metho...
