Overview
Siemens SIMATIC ET 200MP Series —The Decentralized I/O System for the SIMATIC S7-1500:
The simple use of SIMATIC ET 200MP is exemplified by a modular and scalable station with the SIMATIC S7-1500 I/O modules in a distributed configuration. The modules have high channel density and low parts variance. As a result, ordering, logistics and spare-parts inventory are considerably simplified. The support of all IEC 61131-3 programming languages (LAD/FBD, STL, SCL and Graph) and of high-level languages such as C enable efficient programming of the Advanced Controllers in the shared engineering framework TIA Portal.
Simatic S7-1500 / ET 200MP TM NPU is equipped with a USB 3.1. and a gigabit Ethernet port and has no other function “out of the box.” It only becomes functional when a trained neural network is loaded via an SD card. The TM NPU (Neural Processing Unit) has an integrated AI chip, which allows it to process neural networks efficiently. The interfaces can then be used to process the data from the connected sensors (e.g., images, audio, vibrations) and from the CPU program, on the basis of the loaded neural network. This results in much more efficient, “human-like” behavior. In the past, camera-based recognition of workpieces was only possible if the system was “taught” each workpiece precisely and in advance. Now, users can design this process with much greater flexibility based on e.g. existing image data. The resulting advantage is evident in pick-and-place applications, for example, where a mobile robot has to be able to recognize, remove, and position components that are lying loose in a box. Added value is also realized in quality inspections, where expert human knowledge about a product or process can be transferred to the module by continuously training a neural network with this (image) data by means of a connected camera.
