Can the increasing number of PLCs and PCs be solved with consolidation?

The definitive version of PC-based hard real-time control, "INtime."

INtime is an event-driven real-time operating system that operates in parallel on the same PC as Windows. It transforms a PC into a control controller for industrial systems, integrating the traditional "PLC + data processing PC + external I/O" into a single unit. ■ It enables high-performance real-time systems on a single industrial PC. ■ It operates on PCs for both commercial and industrial applications. ■ INtime handles control and external I/O, while Windows is responsible for information processing such as HMI, databases, and AI. This division of roles allows for the integration of 'IT and OT' within the same enclosure. ■ Applications running on INtime are developed using Visual Studio, allowing for C/C++ implementation and debugging with the same feel as Windows applications. ■ PLC ladder language and Python can be utilized (optional). ■ Major industrial external I/O interfaces are available, including PCI/PCIe, serial, LAN, and fieldbus (CC-LINK, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, MECHATOROLINK), among others. ■ Comprehensive technical support is provided. Dedicated staff will assist with handling and inquiries related to the product.

Hotron Inc. has launched its new product, the "Vehicle Count Sensor CCS3"! This product is a ceiling-mounted sensor that combines infrared and radar technology. It reliably detects vehicles in both directions with a single unit, accommodating traffic during congestion and vehicle passing, thus achieving efficient occupancy management in large parking lots. Additionally, it can be utilized for exit warning purposes in addition to vehicle counting, contributing to the safe and smooth operation of parking facilities. 'Features' - Improved detection performance against changes in road surface during rainy weather by using both infrared and radar. - Equipped with IP67 waterproof and dustproof performance, making it effective even in salt damage areas. - Various settings can be configured from a dedicated app (for Android devices), with current settings easily visible at a glance. - The base dimensions are the same as the previous model "CCS2," allowing for smooth replacement of existing equipment. *For more details, please refer to the product information, catalog download, or contact us.*

On September 30, 2026 (Wednesday) from 14:00 to 15:00, we will hold an online seminar titled "MajiSemi." With the advancement of equipment functionality, there has been an increase in PLCs, motion controllers, and dedicated controllers, leading to challenges such as larger control panels, more complex wiring, and increased development and maintenance man-hours. This seminar will explain "PC-based control" as an option to address these challenges. We will introduce how real-time control is possible on a PC with the real-time OS "INtime," and what control functions can be consolidated onto a PC. Additionally, we will explain Contec's new industrial PC optimized for INtime. ■ Recommended for: - Those who feel challenged by the increasing complexity of equipment configurations due to the rise of PLCs and dedicated controllers. - Those interested in PC-based control but unsure about the mechanisms and implementation methods. - Those who want to learn how to utilize PCs for equipment control and about industrial PCs suitable for equipment control. - Those considering consolidating control functions and reviewing control architecture for next-generation equipment. ★ This content can only be heard here! ★ https://majisemi.com/e/c/contec-20260930/M2B

The AI visual inspection platform "DeepAge Sensor" has added a multi-stage fine-tuning feature. Models created through fine-tuning can be designated as the base model for subsequent additional training. By simply uploading additional images collected on-site, the model can be updated without retraining from scratch, and it can be stacked up to five times within the same lineage. The request list allows you to check the generation and lineage (source of derivation). Additionally, the verification tool "Sensor AD" has been enhanced with a score graph to select the decision threshold.
