Following that, three new partners in the ctrlX platform network showcased their solutions. Oliver Prang, Digital Business Development at SMC, represented the first pneumatics provider in the partner world. The seamless integration of pneumatic and electrical automation solutions into ctrlX OS devices such as the ctrlX CORE controller enables simple control of air flows in machines. SMC solutions like the valve island with EX260 and the JXC controllers can be directly connected to ctrlX OS devices via EtherCAT. Additionally, compact-format electric drive functions can be mapped and integrated.

Pepperl+Fuchs sensors and systems enable comprehensive automation of manufacturing processes and provide valuable data for IoT solutions. Serving as a bridge, the IO-Link Masters from Pepperl+Fuchs connect sensors and actuators with higher-level software systems such as ERP or MES. RFID systems from Pepperl+Fuchs facilitate contactless identification and traceability, thereby making production and logistics processes more transparent. They support all common frequencies from the industrial environment. Protocols such as EtherCAT, IO-Link, OPC UA, and REST API allow for easy integration into ctrlX OS-based devices.
