The Anybus product family from HMS Industrial Networks enables data exchange between field devices, machines and systems via all common fieldbus and industrial Ethernet networks. The company recently added CC-Link IE TSN to the modular embedded family 'Anybus CompactCom'.
This makes the CC-Link Partner Association (CLPA) technology the thirteenth network supported by the multi-network connection, but the first to be based on TSN.
Anybus gateways mediate between different industrial communication standards. They accelerate and simplify network integration and network expansion for the user. As with the two earlier CLPA technologies CC-Link and CC-Link IE, HSM is initially developing the interface module for CC-Link IE TSN. As soon as the basic technology is available, it will be incorporated into gateways and edge gateways.
