B&R has introduced the X2X+ backplane bus as an enhancement to the X20 system, enabling a significant performance boost by fourfold. What makes this development particularly practical is the compatibility with all existing X20 I/O modules, requiring only the addition of bus modules to amplify machine capabilities.
Cost-effective Standard Integration
The new bus system offers distinct advantages in applications that demand numerous I/O modules or manage high data volumes, especially where short cycle times are essential. Users can establish dual cycle times, allowing less time-sensitive data to be conveyed at a slower pace, thereby reducing network and processor stress. This capability ensures that intricate high-speed operations can be managed efficiently with standard, cost-effective hardware.
Enhanced Sampling Rates and Data Handling
The X2X+ technology facilitates faster data transmission, achieving response times that are up to four times quicker. This improved bandwidth allows for more effective handling of large data sets, achieving higher sampling rates. Such advancements prove beneficial in applications like vibration measurement, resulting in more precise condition monitoring and enhancing the overall reliability of systems.
