Projects at Beckhoff Automation
Flagship project itsOWL-ScAut | Scientific Automation
Integration of engineering technologies into standard automation technology, e.g. learning processes or condition monitoring.
Innovation project itsOWL-efa | Extreme Fast Automation
Extremely powerful industrial PCs with more than 16 cores, so-called many-core computers, and engineering tools for the parallelization of the control software are being developed for the efficient implementation of these technologies.
Both Projects were part of the Leading Edge Cluster it‘s OWL. They were funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and supervised by the Projektträger Karlsruhe (PTKA).
