Certified
PROFINET Engineer |
|
 |

This
training course will provide detailed technical knowledge
of the PROFINET technology and the advantages it offers your
automation and production processes. Constantly a comparison
with PROFIBUS is made. PROFIBUS is the current standard and
PROFINET an interesting enhancement.
PROFINET is using Industrial Ethernet as communication medium,
which has lots of myths that are gray areas for users like:
cabling, security, determinism and speed. But there
are more important aspects nobody is willing to answer: will
maintenance activities change?, what happens when the cable
has a disturbance?,
the solution for process automation, investment costs and how
many manufacturers are supplying products?
This training will take a close peek on these issues so that
the participant has confidence to evaluate himself if PROFINET
is an appropriate solution for his automation requirements
and that he can design a proper application. All subjects will
be finalized with a demonstration and practical exercise to
get a direct link with the real world.
At the end of the training there will be a theory exam. Participants
who pass get the title Certified PROFINET Engineer and are
awarded an official certificate.
This
event is hosted by the experts of PROCENTEC who are constantly
deployed worldwide to carry out projects and training sessions.
They can realistically inform you about the advantages and
consequences of PROFINET technology.
