Delta, a global provider of smart and energy-efficient industrial automation solutions, will demonstrate its enhanced spectrum of solutions for the digitalization, visualization and integration of smart manufacturing at Hannover Messe 2019. An impressive 220-inch video wall at Delta’s booth will feature the newly-launched Digital Factory Monitoring Solution, which integrates a series of software platforms developed by Delta to determine in real-time the status of manufacturing processes, equipment and energy consumption. The new DIAStudio integrated engineering software enables an all-in-one platform to select models, program and set up PLCs, HMIs, drives and more, allowing for effective and time-efficient machinery systems development. Delta’s new CODESYS-based Motion Control Solution, matched with a Delta SCARA robot, will also be a highlight of our showcase.
