Rotork enhances data collection with industrial ethernet

Rotork is excited to introduce its fully integrated ethernet actuator, which is compatible with EtherNet/IP Modbus TCP and PROFINET protocols.

This innovative technology marks a significant leap forward in industrial automation, offering unprecedented data connectivity, speed, and operational efficiency.

With the introduction of Rotork’s integrated Ethernet solution, a data gateway is no longer required, enabling a direct, streamlined connection to Rotork’s intelligent IQ3 Pro actuator. This reduces complexity and increases the volume and speed of data extraction, with transfer rates up to 100 Mbps.

The solution is also housed within a robust weatherproof or explosionproof enclosure and supports RJ45 and M12 connection standards. Compatibility extends to industry-standard protocols, with PI certification, GSDML files for PROFINET, and ODVA certification with supporting EDS files for EtherNet/IP.

Data is key to operational excellence in the era of Industry 4.0. The new Ethernet solution from Rotork accelerates data transfer and enhances the capability for in-depth data analysis. By leveraging the Rotork Intelligent Asset Management (iAM) cloud-based system, operators can unlock powerful insights from their operational data. This enables predictive maintenance, optimised performance, and informed decision-making, driving productivity and reducing downtime.

Darren Silverthorn, Rotork's Product Manager for electric actuators, commented, “We understand the critical role that data plays in today’s industrial landscape. Our new Ethernet solution not only simplifies connectivity but also enhances the capacity for real-time data analysis, empowering our customers to operate with greater precision and efficiency.”

This feature underscores Rotork’s commitment to delivering reliable, durable products that perform under the most demanding conditions.
