News and Markets Eplan

News and Markets Eplan with three new subsidiaries New Eplan subsidiaries have been founded in Japan, South Africa and Turkey. Until now, the three countries have been supported by co-operation partners. At the start of the year, Eplan Software & Services K.K. was founded with its headquarters in Tokyo. In June, the new subsidiary Eplan Software & Services (Pty) Ltd. started trading in South Africa. The office was established in Edenvale near Johannesburg. A further subsidiary was established in July in Turkey: Eplan Yazılım ve Yazılım Hizmetleri A.S. trades in Istanbul. “As a manufacturer of engineering solutions, we can market new products and our comprehensive service portfolio better and much more quickly”, explains Haluk Menderes (photo), Managing Director of Eplan Software & Service. “Our customers, who are largely active in international circles, profit from our extensive presence in the global market and a uniformly high-quality level with respect to services.” www.eplan.de EtherCAT Technology Group: 1,000 th member in Asia Two successful Ether- CAT Plug Fests , along with two Safety over EtherCAT seminars in Japan and Korea , highlight the widespread implementation of EtherCAT and support of the EtherCAT Technology Group (ETG) on the Asian continent. Almost 80 participants attended this year’s Ether- CAT Plug Fests, the developer meetings conducted by the ETG, in Japan and Korea. ETG events in Japan have seen particularly overwhelming growth, with significant increases in member attendance over the past four years.

Looking back at the success of the EtherCAT events in Japan and Korea , the latest milestone of the ETG is hardly surprising , given the recent welcome to the organization ’s 1,000 th member in Asia. www.ethercat.org AUTOMATION TECHNOLOGIES 4/2014

BARE IS BEAUTIFUL. BASLER’S NEW DART IS SIMPLY STUNNING IN ITS SIMPLICITY. Sometimes you don’t need lot of bells and whistles. Or a fancy wrapper. Just the basics will do. Like performance. Reliability. Flexibility. And a price that makes sense for your system. Sometimes the stripped down solution is the right solution. And now you can get it from Basler. Basler’s board level dart camera is the smallest USB3 Vision compliant camera in the world. It is available as bare board and also with S and CS-lens mounts, weighing under 15 grams at 29 mm x 29 mm. The dart consumes less power, produces less heat and fits easily into systems with limited space. And Basler’s new dart hits the mark on both performance and price, offering higher image quality than any other board level camera and starting at just €99. At Basler, we have a unique vision of value. Learn more at baslerweb.com.
