gibt es ab sofort auch die Möglichkeit BoschRexroth "Komponenten" wie z.B. Servoantriebe oder Hydraulik direkt aus der gewohnten LabView Umgebung heraus in Echtzeit zu steuern:
"The Bosch Rexroth/NI announcement also broke new ground, not only in terms of a new partnership for Bosch Rexroth and NI, but in how NI’s LabView software can be used. Historically, LabView has been used to program machines that record and analyze measurement data for tasks such as inline quality control or machine status monitoring. Automation tasks, such as the precise positioning of a test piece, typically require use of a PLC programmed in a separate programming language, typically an IEC 61131-3 standard language. However, using Rexroth's Open Core Engineering interface technology, measurement and testing programming, as well as all PLC programming, can now be done via LabVIEW without having to write PLC code.
The joint Bosch Rexroth/NI LabView package permits the controlling of electric and hydraulic Rexroth drives in real time. In addition, the ability to program and control these drives in LabView using Open Core Engineering means that the drives no longer need a control unit. Instead, the Rexroth drives can be controlled directly from LabView—which also records functional data from the drive. Speaking about this joining of computer software and drive control functionality, Dr. Karl Tragl, president of the executive board of Bosch Rexroth, noted that this capability provides an inexpensive way for users to explore Industry 4.0 applications in which machine operations are digitally controlled, recorded and connected."
