Fieldbuses

Wapice provides fieldbus development for industrial needs. Fieldbuses interconnect devices with real-time, decentralized and standardized connection, for example in a manufacturing plant, warehouse or power plant. Typical fieldbus devices are sensors, different types of actuators and repeaters between busses. Numerous Fieldbus standards exist for different types of use cases. See below examples of technologies we use.

Fieldbuses

  • Modbus, BACnet, PROFIBUS
  • CAN based: J1939, CANopen, DeviceNet
  • TCP/IP: Modbus TCP, PROFINET, Ethernet/IP, EtherCAT

Wireless networks

  • SMS, BLE, WLAN, Zigbee, GPRS, GSM, 3G

Gateways we provide

  • PROFINET-to-CANOpen gateway
