From 28 to 30 May 2024, ESA returns to Parma for the twelfth edition of SPS Italia. The fair for intelligent, digital and sustainable industry, a reference point for the Italian manufacturing sector, is the perfect stage to present our most recent and innovative hardware and software solutions. In fact, these products are perfectly consistent with the hot-topics of the event organized by Messe Frankfurt Italia.
SPS Italia 2024: themes and highlights
Like every year, the fair will be structured into different thematic areas, each focused on specific areas of interest, for a total of six exhibition pavilions. In pavilions 3, 5 and 6, smart technologies and solutions for automation and digital transition are exhibited. While in pavilions 4, 7 and 8, it is possible to discover District 4.0, an exhibition itinerary full of demos and application cases of Industrial IT & AI, Robotics and Mechatronics, Additive Manufacturing, Sustainable Innovation and the new areas dedicated to Start Up and Education.
The issue of sustainability is very important, central to Industry 4.0 (and 5.0). To address it, the Sustainable Innovation area has been set up, which will enhance the role of smart production solutions with the three main meanings: Automation at the center of sustainability; Digital as a technology to support sustainability; Emerging technologies for sustainability.
But not only. SPS Italia offers many opportunities for interaction and collaboration between participants, networking, and knowledge exchange.
ESA solutions at SPS Italia 2024
The industry is a universe in constant movement and in the same way ESA is always committed to finding suitable solutions to respond to the latest market requirements. That’s why we’re excited to showcase the latest additions to our catalog. And what better occasion than SPS Italia 2024 to do so? Here are specifically the ESA products that will be in the spotlight.
Hardware:
Lumia VESA and Panel – ESA’s modular solution that offers a new concept of HMI, visualization, and control. A flexible, scalable, and dynamic device for a safe and innovative work experience. Now available in the Industrial PC version with 10.1″ high resolution widescreen display and IP66 protection rating.
Lumia mini book/rock – New high-performance and cost-effective IPC box. Extremely compact products are available with Apollo Lake N4200 quad core processor up to 11th generation Intel i7. In addition, thanks to the expansion module, it is possible to reach up to 6 LAN ports and manage, via the 8 integrated digital I/Os, essential functions such as controlled shutdown and hardware enabling of remote assistance services.
Lumia ARM – New line of flexible, lightweight, and easy-to-assemble solutions, with an integrated arm fixing system through which all the cables pass for greater safety and order. Includes IPC, industrial monitors and embedded egeHMI and webHMI platform based on Linux Debian 11.
Software:
Kreo HMI – The responsive and platform independent tool for the development of powerful, intuitive and web-based edge-node and web-HMI applications. The integrated edgeHMI – webHMI structure facilitates the development of applications in distributed automation with multiple independent workstations.
Kreo Connect – The new platform for remote maintenance of Lumia products mounted on machines. It uses a simple outgoing internet connection with a secure https protocol encrypted TLS 2.1 and does not require changes to the firewall settings of the customer’s IT network.
Drives & motors
MiniECO – The new version of the historic ESA servo drive. Designed to offer an excellent relationship between performance and price to control small-medium sized brushless servomotors powered by 230 Vac and with nominal power up to 1 kWkW, now complete with STO SIL2 and EtherCAT and CANopen fieldbus.
EWDB – The synchronous servomotor complete with integrated control unit. It combines compact dimensions with the decentralized drive concept, to save space and optimize the cabling on the machine. Ready to be connected with multiple fieldbuses.
