Status of the CMOS Image Sensor Industry 2017 - Report by Yole DeveloppementYole Developpement
New applications are transforming the market and technology playing field for CMOS image sensors
It’s ten years down the line from the initial Apple iPhone that started the smartphone era. Since then, CMOS imaging has benefited from huge market demand and a technology-driven environment, resulting in an $11.6B industry in 2016. Photography and video is the main application, which is totally transformed by new use cases, new devices and new technologies.
The mobile market is key for the CMOS image sensor (CIS) industry. Despite saturation in the number of handsets, the CIS market has been able to maintain a 10.5% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the 2016-2022 period due to the introduction of dual and 3D cameras. These additional cameras are changing the industry’s drivers from form factor and image quality to interactivity.

Organic Thin Film Transistor 2016: Flexible Displays and Other Applications 2...Yole Developpement
Are OTFTs ready to disrupt the display industry and enable fully-flexible devices?
ORGANIC TFTS ARE ENTERING THE FAB BY THE BACK DOOR
When trying to build a flexible display panel, the Thin Film Transistor (TFT) matrix is one of the most challenging and fragile functional layers.
Interest in OTFT emerged in the mid-2000s when mobility reached values similar to amorphous silicon (a-Si), the dominant display backplane technology. This triggered a flurry of activity at leading display manufacturers, and prototypes rapidly emerged. Besides fast-improving electrical performance, OTFT’s intrinsic flexibility made the technology ideal for the realization of flexible displays. In 2007, the first ever flexible AMOLED panel was demonstrated by Sony and featured an organic TFT.
However, interest waned as performance and homogeneity issues persisted, and other TFT technologies like LTPS and metal oxide emerged.
Nevertheless, organic semiconductor companies kept perfecting their molecules and ink formulations, gaining a better understanding of the interaction between the materials, the transistor structure, and the manufacturing process. Consequently, performance in the lab improved by another order of magnitude. Combined with the explosive growth of flexible displays and the promise of a cost-efficient, solution-based manufacturing process, interest in OTFT has renewed.
Panel makers remain cautious, but a handful in Taiwan and China are currently attempting to retrofit older Gen 2.5 - 4.5 fabs with OTFT. These first attempts to move OTFT into mass production will be critical for the technology’s future. Failure in these initial industrialization attempts could be fatal for the OTFT industry, or, at the very least, set it back many years. However, if OTFT proves that it can be mass produced and enables panel makers to revive those obsolete fabs with high-margin flexible displays, there are no fundamental barriers prohibiting the technology from being quickly scaled up to fabs Gen 8 or above, and possibly challenge the vast market for traditional a-Si based panels like LCD TV, monitors, etc. In the long-term, because they are inherently solution-processable, OTFTs are also an ideal backplane candidate for additive manufacturing and fully printed displays.

IoT the driver of Business Innovation: better products, new services and...Eurotech
The IoT is the manifestation that the raw material of the information age is data. Data is the new source of innovation and the lever to achieve business sustainability. By extracting data from assets and products, companies can become more efficient through a strategic rethinking of their value chains and business processes. In so doing, companies will add the required readiness to shift from products to services, and eventually enter in the outcome economy. To truly embrace the digital transformation, organizations need to collect actionable data from their assets, processes, and products and then connect the OT world where data are generated to IT world where data are consumed. To make this happen, a IoT integration platform, that gives to the App an easy and versatile access to the data, is required . As a matter of fact the IoT essence resides in an impressive simplification of the OT-IT integration through a loosely coupled containerized layered (LC2L) architecture. The benefits are huge: the transformation of any business into a smart business, increasing competitiveness also in mature markets; the creation of new innovative products and services; and the enablement of service prosumerization. Abundance of data is the real essence of IoT, where the App is the tip of the data iceberg.
Industrial networks are becoming ever more complex and require more compact connectivity solutions. One of the key questions on the path to Integrated Industry is what capabilities future Ethernet infrastructures will need to provide.

Whitepaper - How to build a mutil-technology scalable IoT Connectivity Platform?Actility
In this paper, we investigate the challenges facing service providers and enterprises for deploying and monetizing LPWAN solution.
We show in this paper that the traditional M2M approach might not be cost-effective for the needs of LPWAN IoT deployments due to dramatically lower ARPU requirements of IoT compared to traditional M2M. We also examine both cellular IoT (NB-IoT or Cat-NB1, Cat-M1, Cat-1) and LoRaWAN, with the objective to demonstrate the complementary aspects of the two technologies. We show how operators extend existing M2M use cases and swap 2G using cellular IoT, and in addition tap into the new unlicensed IoT market space using LoRaWAN. Interestingly, LoRaWAN is a natural over-the-top play for cellular IoT operators, as cellular IoT is an ideal backhaul technology for unlicensed LPWAN concentrators.
Properly matching a connectivity solution to a use case is a complex multidimensional problem requiring analysis of several factors including battery lifetime, coverage, throughput, latency, total cost of ownership (TCO), amongst other factors. We discuss these factors and attempt to build a technology selection chart, and then build a business case for multi-technology IoT platform that leverages both LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT to serve the needs of all IoT use cases. We also provide insights on the service provider strategy for LPWAN deployment with examples from Tier-1 MNOs such as SK Telecom and Orange.
Finally, we conclude the paper with overview of ThingPark Wireless as a multi-technology platform that addresses the challenges for both LoRaWAN and Cellular IoT deployments.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Dear customers and business partners,
You may still remember: Steve Jobs, the
founder and then CEO of Apple present-
ed the iPhone to the general public on
January 9, 2007. The triumphant march
that followed was absolutely unprec-
edented. But let us take a closer look
at this revolution. Why did the iPhone
take the existing market for mobile tele-
phones by storm? Do you have a simple
answer to this question? Indeed, is there
a concrete answer at all?
For many, the success of the iPhone lies
in the convenient use of the Internet.
Apple’s mobile phone is always a part
of the network and thereby its users
too. Another noteworthy aspect was
the - for the time – generous and clearly
designed multi-touch screen. Network
connections were forged via Quadband,
Bluetooth and WLAN, while the device
also offered sensor based features: loca-
tion and brightness detection, as well as
a high performance camera. In the final
instance, these are all just details – in
actual fact, there is no one, single, dis-
tinctly differentiating feature.
In the year 2007 there were other mobile
phones that were already offering Inter-
net access, while some of the competi-
tors featured higher performing cameras
than what the iPhone had to offer. Does
the key to success lie in the idea of apps
that shifted local services to the cloud?
Certainly, this was an absolute novelty –
which was, however, already finding use
outside of the telephony market. More-
over, the iPhone embarked on its trium-
phal march before iTunes was launched,
which still leaves the question as to what
actually triggered the revolution of the
market?
It was not a one, single and distinct tech-
nical function – but the combination of
all the features and capabilities that are
necessary to create a device that enables
users to communicate conveniently at all
times. Or to put it in more general terms:
a device that leads its users easily and
comfortably into the cyber world. The
mobile telephone – and thereby its us-
ers – had emancipated themselves.
In the latest issue of our tec.News we
invite you to come and join us in ad-
dressing precisely such concepts and
ideas. We are committed to finding the
answers as to how conventional indus-
trial devices will become devices that
operate readily and simply in the cyber
world. Here, the issue is also the integra-
tion of functions – the right IT functions
– so that we will benefit from the fully
fledged emancipation of field devices.
I hope you will enjoy reading our latest
issue of tec.News.
Yours sincerely,
» Philip Harting,
Senior Vice President Connectivity Networks

The convenient and user friendly entrance to the cyber world - an important
step for industrial devices that will determine the manufacturing and automa-
tion of the future. Thanks to the integration of IT functions into conventional
industrial devices, the standard automation technology to date will emancipate
itself, and pave the way to digital networking and tighter integration.

Real automation data, which provides an objective view of
the manufacturing processes and which is the basis for every
optimization, is only available at field level. All the higher-lev-
el layers of the traditional automation pyramid only consoli-
date the field-level data and, in doing so, very often destroy
its chronological order. As a result, it loses any relationship to
the actual process, which is necessary, for example, to observe
critical conditions as part of a status-oriented maintenance
program or for efficiency optimization. In order to manage data
traffic at different communication levels, the data must be in a
pre-processed form. For Integrated Industry to be successful, it
is of key importance that it moves forward into the field level.
With the introduction of field bus systems, the recording of
sensor data was thereby decentralized when sensor-actor box-
es with a field bus connection were shifted into the field. A
central control system then queries these boxes periodically.
Knowledge of the significance of the sensor data is stored in
the PLC. As a rule, the sensor is not intelligent – it merely
measures. Communication allows exchange of a digital or ana-
logue value. Therefore, analysis of this data is only meaningful
for the control system. Integration in the management level
is difficult to achieve. The traditional field bus rules have not
changed at all with the introduction of Ethernet as the physical
layer for the field bus.
Inclusion of the field level in a fully Integrated Industry only
works on the basis of standards. If one considers the volume
of Internet-enabled communications devices available today
and relates it to automation devices, automation devices make
up less than one percent of all devices. Therefore, new fully
integrated automation devices must be compatible with the
existing IT standards on which the remaining 99 percent of
(non-automation-relevant) devices are based. Emancipation for
field devices will be achieved when they are completely and
equally integrated in the Internet environment.
However, this is not sufficient for automation devices because
more industry-specific requirements must also be fulfilled and
they too must be standardized.
For Integrated Industry to be successful,
it is of key importance that it moves
forward into the field level.

Emancipation
of field devices
Automation technology and industrial IT are the key technologies in the concept of Integrated Industry. However, only
when the field level is included will the benefits claimed for it materialize. HARTING is well-equipped for this develop-
ment with flexible solutions which are consistently based on IT standards.
Integrated Industry –
8. 8
Therefore, new field devices are required for integration
in the Internet environment, which act not only as slaves
of industrial control systems, but also themselves become
masters. This also changes communication with them from
the IT level. It must not be only possible via gateways. And
this is what makes the new field device capable of more
than its predecessor. The foundations for this have already
been laid with the decentralization and modularization of
field devices, with high performance computing available in
very small spaces and the integration of relevant services.
With powerful and compact electronic modules, field devices
can pre-process and interpret the information accordingly
without overloading the infrastructure with the quantities
of data that arise. It is not necessary to provide regular
information about a system which is working correctly. In-
formation about a deviation from the target specifications is
much more important. Only the fog computing approach and
the use of intelligent field devices allow constant monitoring
that will not overload the infrastructure with the quantities
of data that arise.
CONSIDERATIONS FOR HARTING'S SOLUTIONS RESULTING
FROM THE ABOVE DISCUSSION:
To break new ground, Integrated Industry must be consistent
in its use of standard IT technology. This simplifies integration
in IT business applications.
The use of field devices in automated environments requires
functionalities that extend beyond compatibility with IT stan-
dards.

The result for customers is a new Integrated Industry device
that can be integrated easily in IT applications such as ERP
and MES. Furthermore, all the state-of-the-art interfaces to the
Smart Object will be provided. The new Integrated Industry
device will thereby forge a link between the object and the

CPS 4.0 –
Field devices of
the next generation
In connection with “Industrie 4.0”, the
Internet of Things and Services is en-
tering the next generation of factories.
In this process, conventional field de-
vices are being incrementally replaced
by cyber-physical systems (CPS). These
CPS are interconnected via real-time
Ethernet or wireless IP protocols. Smart
Factories deploy CPS that integrate a
multitude of individual components: in
addition to sensors and actuators, this
includes a processor, memory, a wireless
module and positioning modules, as well
as a power supply that is as autonomous
as possible.
Such multifunctional CPS 4.0 must be
highly reliable, energy efficient and of-
fer favorable costs, as thousands of such
decentral systems form the nervous
system of Smart Factories in “Industrie
4.0”. And just on time, the Hannover
Messe 2015 marks the 50th anniver-
sary of Gordon Moore's rule of thumb
In Industrie 4.0 conventional field devices will be replaced by thousands of cyber-physical
systems. In their role as intelligent agents in the Internet of Things, they form the nervous
system of a Smart Factory.

(frequently referred to as Moore's Law)
concerning the performance doubling
of microelectronics every 18 months, in
connection with dynamically declining
costs. Viewed in this light, continued,
exponential performance gains of CPS
4.0 can be assumed up to the year 2020
at least.
This will enable expanding each individ-
ual CPS as an intelligent agent. These
agents will record and analyze their envi-
ronment by way of its sensors, plan their
activities dynamically based on pre-de-
fined task profiles, while being capable
of recognizing attacks on their safety and
taking timely defense action. By way of
the Internet of Things and Services, CPS
4.0 are able to form ad-hoc coalitions in
order to deal with complex tasks as a
team. As several CPS can also aggregate
to create larger CPS units, a fractal struc-
ture of holons arises which, as “system-of-
systems-of-systems” can be combined to
form a Smart Factory for “Industrie 4.0”
that is networked on all levels.
In this context, the networking and inte-
gration on the purely technical level for
exchanging bits and bytes does not cre-
ate any added value: it is only when the
networked CPS 4.0 also understand the
exchanged messages in terms of content
that innovative factory functions such
as PlugProduce and real-time anomaly
recognition are enabled. With the help
of relations such as “subconcept of” or
“opposite of” complex networks of terms
and concepts are incrementally built
up - so-called ontologies. Semantic ar-
tificial intelligence technologies bridge
the gap between the technical language
of IT and the languages of automation
technology and their users, as they allow
different systems of concepts and terms
to be translated into one another without
loss of meaning.
Innovative software systems, howev-
er, are the essential precondition en-
abling the intelligent behavior of CPS
4.0. Therefore, in future, app stores and
cloud access will be available that will
serve to constantly update software-de-
fined factory platforms based on
networked CPS as the foundation of
“Industrie 4.0”.
By way of the Internet of Things and Services, CPS 4.0
converge as coalitions in order to deal with complex tasks
as a team.

Realizing the vision of Integrated
Industry requires an innovative computer
platform that can easily be integrated
anywhere in a system and is also flexible,
simple and reasonably priced. The new
HARTING product platform represents
the entry ticket to Integrated Industry. It
offers pre-fabricated hardware and soft-
ware components supporting the integra-
tion of sensors, actors and machines in
the Internet of Things. The platform can
also be adapted for special functions with
a minimum of input. A community will
come together around the product plat-
form that will – similar to an app store –
offer customers and partners the opportu-
nity to communicate with each other and
offer their solutions to others.
This is enabled by consistently modular,
open and secure architecture, which
like the smartphone several years ago,
creates new and previously unimagined
opportunities.

Transparent production
with computing power and sensors
Improvements in product quality and production efficiency and early detection of sources of error and malfunctions
require large quantities of data from the production process. HARTING has developed a universal integrated
framework to obtain this data. It uses predictive analytics technology from data acquisition in the sensor through to
the analysis in the ERP system.

gether, which is aided by standards and
abstractions such as those provided by
OPC-UA and IO-Link. This allows, for
example, operation via plug and play or
simplifies the identification of sensors
with RFID. The level of automation can
also be increased if semantic description
concepts such as W3C Semantic Sensor
Network Ontology are used.
However, the major challenge on the
path toward the future Industrie 4.0
comes in the phase after the data has en-
tered the processing system where it is
not only necessary to synchronize data
from different sources, but also to inter-
pret it meaningfully. Methods drawn
from statistics, machine learning and
data mining are used here. At the same
time, there is growing understanding
that security issues such as confiden-
tiality, availability and integrity must
be taken into account with any central
or decentralized processing, storage or
communication of data. This applies par-
ticularly to processing in the Cloud.
HARTING now supports both small and
medium-sized companies with hardware
such as its RFID products and the new
modular embedded M2M platform, and
The Industrie 4.0 strategy requires the
acquisition of rising data volumes and
the increasingly intelligent analysis of
growing quantities of data. This is the
only way to make processes more effi-
cient and more flexible - and cannot be
implemented without intelligent sensors
and measuring technology. The process
data represents the key to a more thor-
ough understanding of production, to
preventative maintenance and to more
flexible production. This data helps to
reveal connections, anticipate system
behavior and ensure continuous optimi-
zation.
Sensor manufacturers are responding
to this trend with miniaturization, local
data processing and increasing integra-
tion. New developments such as ener-
gy-independent sensors and not least
falling prices allow data to be read that
could not have been read to date, or only
at unjustifiable expense. Furthermore,
many sensors must be networked to-
with software through customer-specif-
ic system integration projects on every
level of the automation pyramid, from
sensors to the SAP-HANA database. As
a result, processes such as Condition
Monitoring, Predictive Analytics, ener-
gy management, maintenance planning
and asset information do not present a
problem for this target group.
The HARTING platform also offers solutions for small and
medium-sized companies.

Customized production and customer-specific labelling for products
allows for better integration of customer/supplier processes.
New services are being established on the basis of standardized data
formats for product descriptions. HARTING is demonstrating this by way
of a consistent Integrated Industry application.
Mass Customization
delivers identifiable
HARTING products
Many customers in the B2B sector de-
mand increasingly customized products.
In order to manufacture such products
smoothly, a new quality of data consis-
tency along the entire supply chain is
called for. A process model remaining
consistent at all levels and all process
stages and enabling a full description
of the production process is a decisive
component here.

equipment, HARTING shows how ex-
isting expertise and competencies in
the Integrated Industry sector can be
used to order, assemble and apply cus-
tomer-specific labelling to individual

and handles one production step. The
production process is executed through
the interaction of these autonomous
modules. These systems are offered
by HARTING's own special-purpose
engineering equipment manufacturing.
The production unit employed here with
three production cells is connected to
the produciton environment by way of a
smart infrastructure solution.
Customers configure their own tailored
connectors from the Han-Modular®
sys-
tem in the eShop. The data is transferred
from the SAP modules ERP, ME and MII
to the machine, which manufactures
and assembles the desired components
and delivers them to customers, who can
then integrate them into their own set-
up without any further data conversion.
The advantage for customers here is
that they not only receive pre-fabricated
products that can be used immediately,
but that these products can be integrated
seamlessly into their own value-added
process using the labelling they them-
selves have specified, e.g. their own
item numbers. This functions smoothly
with standardized interchange formats
for catalogue data such as BMEcat. They
also form the basis for product classifi-
cation systems such as eCl@ss, ETIM,
proficl@ss and UNSPS. This ensures
excellent data quality that, for example,
enables the identification of HARTING
products in a customer environment
and their seamless incorporation into
customer systems (e.g. assembly manu-
al tailored specifically to the customer's
project). If there are any issues, service
systems can trigger orders themselves
for the corresponding purpose, thanks
to the customized data.
With its Integrated Industry approach,
HARTING is demonstrating the creation
of new solutions with extended, multiple
customer benefits, driven by the perfect
interaction of expertise in the mechani-
cal engineering, automation technology,
information technology and robotics sec-
tors.

At the Hanover Trade Fair 2015, HARTING will be presenting a new
infrastructure box which takes the design of from the conventional
switch cabinets to the highly integrated devices.
The functionality of the infrastructure box allows
standardized connection of machines.
Industrie 4.0 Infrastructure:
Industrie 4.0 will create an increasing number of 'Smart
Factories'. They are characterized by a modular structure
which makes production processes more flexible.
An essential condition for this is a powerful infrastructure
supplying the automation modules with data, signals and pow-
er and taking on key management functions. This results in
a high level of flexibility and maximum efficiency and avail-
ability, all accomplished with a minimum of effort expended
on rearranging the systems.
The essential infrastructure functions for the smartfactoryKL
were specified by a working group of leading automation and
network suppliers on the basis of which HARTING exhibited a
powerful infrastructure box at the Hanover Trade Fair in 2014
that was presented as a switch cabinet full of high-performance
industry devices on DIN rails. These 'switch cabinets', howev-
er, were still much too large and heavy to be considered as a
smart and universal T-device for Smart Factories. Although
the cabinet design was evidence of its functional viability,
the miniaturization in the form of an integrated device is a
crucial prerequisite for meeting users' installation and cost
requirements. Similar to the way in which smartphones only

began to dominate the market with the miniaturization and in-
tegration of mobile telephones, tablet PCs and digital cameras,
integration and miniaturization in industry is fundamental to
its market success and that of Smart Factories.
At the Hanover Trade Fair this year, HARTING will be present-
ing a new infrastructure box. It comes very close to the vision
of a smart T-device, is highly integrated and equipped with
powerful hardware and software.
The functionality of the infrastructure box permits the stan-
dardized connection of machines and automation modules and
the exchange of data via OPC-UA. The box allows energy data
to be measured, outputs to be switched and a Gigabit data back-
bone to be constructed via a managed switch. The unit can
be configured via a web interface or standard management
protocols such as SNMP.
Han-Modular®
connectors are used for the reliable and stan-
dardized connection of data, signals and energy in both the
automation modules and the backbone.
The infrastructure box is the universal interface for smartfactoryKL
machines and systems.
The smart T-device supports a modular system structure and enables the flexible integration
of industrial solutions.

Ethernet is considered the communications platform of the future, and will continue to gain significance as
data rates rise. Already the key technology in industry today, it is used in almost every automation profile.
HARTING supplies all the connection technology required.
Industrial automation
is becoming an integral part of IT
To fully exploit the potential of modern Ethernet-based
network infrastructure for Industrie 4.0, three factors are
required: A standardized communications platform, robust
network products such as switches and cables for industri-
al use, and standards that guarantee compatibility between
the automation technology and information technology, as
well as with the hardware and software solutions used in data
networks.
The norms for structured cabling in different areas of appli-
cation, such as office and industrial environments, computer
centers and building technology, are collected in the third
edition of ISO/IEC 11801 (see overview). The new section for
industry ISO/IEC 11801-3 lists norms that will allow isolated
areas of automation to become an integrated part of a corporate
network.
In order that users can create a universal cabling system,
HARTING has developed an industrial cabling and connection
system. At its core is the Ha-VIS preLink®
terminal block which
can be wired in one operation with the preLink®
tool provid-
ing completely reliable and error-free results. All components
are available in IP20 or IP65/67. Flexible and interchangeable
connectors, sockets and connection elements suitable for a
wide range of different devices and field bus interfaces in
M12 or RJ45 technology ensure universal connections between
factories and offices.
Standard-compliant solutions with
Ha-VIS preLink®
technology make
Integrated Industry applications safe
investments.

New
standards
for Auto-ID devices
Six years ago, the OPC-UA commu-
nication protocol was introduced with
IEC standard 62541 as the new de facto
standard for the automation sector. Com-
pared to the old OPC, it is more secure
and offers more comprehensive connec-
tivity. It is not dependent on a particular
platform or programming language
and is easier to configure and main-
tain. OPC-UA is scalable as a network
of automation services ranging from
the smallest sensor to embedded sys-
tems and PLCs. With the same protocol,
it is possible to network RFID systems
with just a few data points, as well as
control systems with over 100,000 data
points.
With its object-oriented approach,
OPC-UA can easily be combined with the
manufacturer-specific properties of in-
dividual devices, while fully complying
with the standard. This is important in
order to ensure that HARTING can con-
tinue to implement specific functions
such as a convenient filter and aggrega-
tion layer or support for special sensor
transponders.
As a member of the Industry Association
for Automatic Identification, Data Collec-
tion and Mobile Data Communications
(AIM) and in collaboration with the OPC
Foundation, HARTING has worked with
representatives of major companies in
the sector to draw up the new OPC-UA
Companion Specification for Auto-ID de-
vices. The basic data model will simplify
and accelerate the integration of Auto-ID
devices and thus aid system integrators
in their work.

Interfaces have been tasked with a key role in the evolution towards highly flexible production systems for
Industrie 4.0. HARTING is offering scalable and therefore cost efficient interface solutions with new,
implementable functionalities such as RFID and data storage.
for the manufacturing systems of the future
23. 23
t e c . N e w s 28: S o l u t i o n s
Modularity, scalability and flexibility – these demands made
on production systems are nothing new. But only since the
dawn of Industrie 4.0 – with its decentralized, distributed in-
telligence and the production of tangible goods by modular,
self-organizing systems controlled by work pieces these de-
mands can actually be met.
This, however, is an evolutionary process for automation and
mechanical engineering companies – current machinery
must function within the existing environment while simul-
taneously being capable of migrating to Integrated Industry.
Machinery and modules with adaptive program code and flexi-
ble interfaces are emerging from manufacturing systems with
non-changeable process sequences and rigid structures.
Interfaces have been tasked with a key role in this evolution
towards adaptive, highly flexible production systems – commu-
nication interfaces, as well as interfaces between all machine
elements and at all levels of production processes.
HARTING already offers the world's broadest product portfolio
of scalable, and therefore cost efficient, pluggable interface
solutions for power, control, signal and data connections, all
featuring the company’s renowned outstanding technical func-
tionality.
Specific examples of such scalable interfaces include:
• As a universal industrial interface for power, signal and
data: the Han-Eco®
family, which offers the option of using
more than 50 different Han-Modular®
modules or Han-Eco®
monoblock inserts.
• As a universal communication interface:
Ha-VIS preLink®
installation technology, which combines
the advantages of IT data network technology with the needs
of industry and features a pre-assembled cable. The mating
face can be precisely tailored to the respective end device or
modified at a later point in time.
HARTING has expanded the functionality of the interfaces to
meetthespecialrequirementsandthemigrationtoIndustrie4.0.
Highly available RFID systems enable the identification of all
elements involved in the production process – work pieces,
tools, machine modules etc., in addition to enabling flexible
data storage directly on the elements or with reference to the
element.
In addition, data storage directly in the industrial connector is
also optional thanks to Han®
ID modules, which are mechani-
cally constructed so that they can be assembled into modular
connectors directly alongside other power, data and signal
modules. On the control side, Han®
ID modules communicate
directly with machine controllers (PLCs, industrial PCs) via
industrial bus systems or discrete I/O. This results in the very
cost-effective and flexible of data storage option that is also
highly robust and at the “machine level” – with all of the en-
suing benefits this offers.
These features permit the harmonious migration of the inter-
faces as a prerequisite for the successful evolution towards the
highly flexible manufacturing systems of the future.
Machinery and modules with adaptive
program code and flexible interfaces are
emerging from manufacturing systems
with non-changeable process sequences
and rigid structures.

Hybrid interfaces
» Rainer Bussmann, Product Manager, HARTING Technology Group, Rainer.Bussmann@HARTING.com
Hybrid interfaces have been used in IT for a long time. Everyone is familiar with the USB or Power over Ethernet
standard through which end devices are supplied with data and energy. The Integrated Industry concept means that
these requirements are also being made of industry. HARTING considers itself a pioneer in this area and is developing
solutions to meet these requirements.
as a solution for Integrated Industry
Integrated Industry is increasing the movement of data on
every level. With a broad portfolio of RJ45 and M12 connec-
tors for data transmission rates from 100 Megabits up to 10
Gigabits, HARTING is well-prepared for these challenges. Trans-
mitting data, signals and power at the same time changes the
cabling structures used so far. HARTING's response has there-
fore been to develop PushPull hybrid connectors such as the
HPPH which transmit both data and signals and is believed
to be one of the smallest IP65/67 hybrid connectors on the
market. The mating face has four Ethernet contacts in Cat. 6A
(RJ45) and three more for a power supply up to 5 A. The ben-
efits are substantial: Easy to handle and compact with a wide
range of different housings and versions plus a data interface
for different transmission media, such as copper, POF and HCS.
As Industrial Ethernet becomes better established, more and
more applications will require special configurations in the
future. The simultaneous transmission of data and power in
one cable and one connector will therefore become increasingly
attractive. This can make the connectors themselves smarter
and able to take on diagnostic and monitoring functions by
means of apps. It is now the right time to define generally appli-
cable standards for the connection of different machines, sys-
tems and components under the Integrated Industry concept.
Companies currently have widely differing ideas, so we are
consulting with users, manufacturers and user organizations.
Applications in the area of smart power boxes which offer
connection options for Ethernet in combination with a power
supply are an indication of the way things are developing. In
the field, this allows much simpler and less costly wiring for
systems compared to the terminal boxes that are otherwise
necessary. Data can be retrieved from field devices via an app
in the box or OPC-UA, while the components can be supplied
with electricity at the same time. The app also monitors power
consumption - simplifying maintenance and diagnosis.
25. 25
t e c . N e w s 28: S o l u t i o n s
Power over Ethernet has been used in IT up to now to con-
nect Ethernet devices such as hard drives and WLAN adapt-
ers to each other. The relevant IEEE standard 802.3af-2003 for
the parallel transmission of energy and data via twisted pair
cables has been established for years. With the PoE+ standard
(IEEE802.3at) now available, HARTING has now more than
doubled the power transmitted on its Ha-VIS eCon models to
34.2 W, thereby creating opportunities for new applications.
As Industrial Ethernet becomes better
established, more and more applications
will require special configurations in the
future.

Modularity
meets high
mating cycles
In modular production, which is a key requirement of
Industrie 4.0, system modules are changed several times every
day. The aim is to be able to reset a system and change from
manufacturing one product to another at any time. In extreme
cases this might be to produce a batch size of one.
The ability to replace system modules quickly is crucial. In-
terfaces for all the lifelines of industry are required: data, sig-
nal and power. As well as requiring a strong power supply,
modular machines need to communicate frequently between
their control systems and their peripherals. Under industrial
conditions, this means connection technology that is both ro-
bust and flexible and must continue to function perfectly - also
after a module has been plugged and unplugged a thousand
times. Connectors ensuring such connections must ideally be
designed to save space and combine different functions, simul-
taneously transmitting signals, data and power.
PORTFOLIO DEVELOPMENT IN
LINE WITH GROWING DEMAND
The HARTING Technology Group has developed the Han®
HMC
(High Mating Cycles) series to precisely meet these require-
ments. It connects housings in accordance with the tried and
tested Han®
standard with inserts and HMC contacts. The stra-
tegic enhancement of the portfolio now also allows modules
from the well-established Han-Modular®
series to be integrated
in housing for high mating cycles, which puts HARTING in a
position to meet the growing demands of modular production
even more effectively.
» Christine Öhls, Product Manager, HARTING Technology Group, Christine.Oehls@HARTING.com
Machines that consist of individually controllable parts can quickly be adapted
to new requirements, thanks to universal interfaces. Ideally, connectors must
combine different functions in a compact space. With Han-Modular®

HARTING Technology Group combines the key requirements of flexible manu-
facture – modularity and high mating cycles.

IN BRIEF
• Cuts the cost of operating and maintaining modular
machines
• Space-saving with the combination of different
transmission media in one connector
• Numerous options for combining data,
signal and power
With the new Han-Modular®
Hinged Frame HMC it is now
possible to integrate modules in Han®
HMC housing which
have been designed for over 10,000 mating cycles. The main
difference between conventional hinged frames and the new
version is the PE contact. This has a special coating and has
been attached to the frame in a particular way.
MODULARITY MEANS FLEXIBILITY
The combination of Han-Modular®
with Han®
HMC opens up a
wide range of new options to users. For example, for the first
time it is possible for a Han®
HMC connector to include several
types of transmission – data, signals and power – in the same
connector which is furthermore robust enough to withstand
10,000 mating cycles. There are many options for different
combinations.
Using connectors specially designed for high mating cycles
cuts the cost of operation and maintenance in modular ma-
chines, while set-up times and downtimes are also shorter.
Modular and hybrid interfaces also increase flexibility and
save space. Han-Modular®
HMC is therefore ideally suited for
utilization as a central interface in Industrie 4.0.

The key demands made on automation are high performance
and determinism, that is, a guaranteed response time to an
event. An accurate date stamp allows the control system to
differentiate between cause and effect and to respond accord-
ingly. Ethernet does not offer this determinism by itself, be-
cause it is based on statistically distributed network access,
i.e. performance falls as the load on the network rises. This is
particularly critical for fast and synchronous drive regulators,
for measurement and test facilities or when synchronizing net-
works with wind energy in-feed.
HARTING Fast Tracking Switches are active network compo-
nents that transport automation frames or specially labeled
frames preferentially: they switch on a “flashing blue-light”,
so to speak, holding other frames back and thereby prevent-
ing congestion. The Ha-VIS FTS switches guarantee that the
preferred frames always arrive at their destination within the
time calculated, irrespective of the load on the network. In this
way, the Ethernet communication solutions achieve the same
performance as deterministic field buses.
The new Ha-VIS FTS support the Precision Time Protocol PTP
in accordance with the Standard IEEE 1588v2 even with a
hardware time stamp and achieve accuracy of less than 0.1
microseconds. They can be operated as a Boundary Clock or
a Transparent Clock and therefore assume the role of master
or slave, allowing all the participants in time-critical applica-
tions to be synchronized and fast speeds in automation to be
achieved.
Ha-VIS Fast Track Switches ensure
determinism - even when an Ethernet
network is working under a heavy load.

IN BRIEF
• Accurate synchronization of networks with the
standardized PTP time protocol.
• The advance of Ethernet on field level reduces media

support in the area of production and
logistics with Auto-ID technologies that
provide expedient and context-related
information, for example, offering exactly
the help they need where they need

UHF RFID applications that make them
more economical. Ha-VIS LOCFIELD®
cable antennas are the basis for this. They
can be positioned in almost any way under
tables, on shelves or along conveyor belts
so that no space is wasted.
HARTING has now developed an intelli-
gent workspace with a LOCFIELD®
an-
tenna for RFID applications. It is fitted
with such precision under the table that
it only reads objects on the tabletop. In-
tegrated via Ha-VIS Middleware, these
objects can be visualized on a screen,
listed and annotated with extra informa-
tion. A supplementary application allows
the simultaneous display of production
and work instructions. This reduces the
error rate during handling, production
and logistics, and staff are optimally
provided with the information they need.

Benefits of the Han-Eco®
series now also integrated in 10 A and 16 A housing
Han-Eco®
» Gero Degner, Product Manager, HARTING Technology Group, Gero.Degner@HARTING.com
Industrial connectors must be robust and reliable, which
is why most manufacturers use metal housings. However,
HARTING established the “B” variant of the Han-Eco®
series
with its high-performance plastic housing on the market some
time ago. It is highly resistant to environmental impact.
As well as being lighter in weight and resistant to corrosion,
the new series offers other benefits, such as simple and flex-
ible assembly (click and mate), higher contact density and
excellent mechanical robustness. When coupled, it meets the
requirements of protection class IP65. With highly UV and
ozone-resistant fluoroelastomer seals, the Han-Eco®
housings
are also suitable for outdoor utilization scenarios. Classified
as V 0 under UL 94, the material also meets very stringent
flammability regulations.
Combination of the connectors with the modules in the
Han-Modular®
and Han-Eco®
monoblocks E series results in
a very broad range of application options in the industrial en-
vironment and in very challenging environmental conditions.
The benefits of the connectors are particularly apparent in
challenging exterior applications. For example, Han-Eco®
Outdoor connectors are used with great success in wind power
systems and in traffic technology.
HARTING has now added the 10 A and 16 A variants to the
Han-Eco®
series. There are assembly benefits for customers:
similarly to the “B” variant Han-Eco®
housing, the “A” vari-
ant can be fitted to the rear of a switch cabinet. Pre-assem-
bled with cables and fixing brackets, the inserts are easily
snapped into place from behind in the housing already

during installation.
The Han-Eco®
type A connector range includes sleeve housings
with top or side entry cable outlets and bulkhead mounting,
surface-mounting and cable-to-cable housings. For bulkhead
mounting and surface-mounting housings there are flexible cov-
er hoods available which can be retrofitted with a simple bearing
pedestal. Integrated M20 and M25 cable glands are available.
A new type of thread connection for the cable outlet on the hous-
ing allows any combination of both cable gland sizes on the sur-
face-mounting housing. The Han-Eco®

are compatible for connection with the metal version and can be
used in industrial and also in outdoor applications.

• User-friendly installation and maintenance
• Outdoor application for extreme fluctuations
in temperature
The power of the sun
In solar thermal power plants, thousands of individual mirrors
concentrate sunlight on to a single point in a tower where water
or oil flowing through it is vaporized. The high temperatures
are used to drive conventional steam turbines which generate
electricity. In order to work most efficiently, the mirrors must
always be directed towards the focal point on the tower, so each
heliostat in the plant, which can extend up to 100 hectares, is
fitted with positioning drives to move the mirrors.
On each heliostat, there are distribution boxes for data and en-
ergy connected with reliable HARTING connectors. The plastic
or metal housing and the seals of the connectors are designed
to be ozone and UV-resistant and also dust-proof. As a typi-
cal outdoor application, they must also be able to withstand
extreme fluctuations in temperature with no problems. The
LOC boxes are therefore hermetically sealed; a diaphragm pro-
vides pressure equalization and prevents water penetration.
The operators use the Han®
series for the power connection;
data is exchanged via either RJ45-PushPull connectors or
optical PushPull LC duplex connectors. The cables are
connected up in a daisy-chain configuration. This allows the
service personnel to connect input and output connectors to
each other and cut out a defective station without any effect on
the others.
» Rainer Bussmann, Product Manager, HARTING Technology Group, Rainer.Bussmann@HARTING.com
Solar thermal companies depend on the reliable and robust connectors in the Han®

Perfect
protection on
the high seas
Connectors in harbor installations and the devices deployed
there need to be particularly robust and reliable.
In co-operation with Palfinger systems, HARTING uses the
Han-Eco®
Outdoor and Han-Modular®
products for systems
involved in the maintenance of ocean-going vessels.
Protecting ships from corrosion is
time-consuming and difficult. Palfinger
systems GmbH, based in Salzburg
and Weng/Austria, has developed new
access systems for cleaning and re-
pairing the outer surfaces of ships,
as well as the interior of tanks and
holds, that dispenses with the need for
scaffolding and ladders. The HTC SD and
HTC Junior systems for cleaning hull
exteriors and applying new paint, are
fully automated, PLC controlled, and can
be operated by just a few workers.
ITP-8, the systems for cleaning and
re-coating the interior of tankers, allow
eight people to work together and are
similarly PLC controlled.
All the systems are entirely modular in
design and are stored in sections on-
shore. This design means that all the
separate parts of the system must be
fitted with connectors.
For all these systems HARTING provides
the relevant connectors in the Han-Eco®
housing range in sizes 6B to 16B, in the
Han-Modular®
insert series as well as
the Han-Quick Lock®
connection tech-
nology.
HARTING's Han®
-GoldTec coating has
been opted for to cope with the very
damaging corrosive effect of sea
water and the heavy-duty wear from the
necessary mating cycles.
It is important for Palfinger that all the
connectors employed are totally reliable
and robust, universally combinable as
well as being available worldwide.

The perfect pairing for Ethernet
networks in railway technology
» Matthias Fritsche, Product Manager, HARTING Technology Group, Matthias.Fritsche@HARTING.com
The preLink®
system and Ha-VIS EtherRail®
cables specially configured for railway requirements allow
the construction of reliable and future-proof data networks for railway technology.
Today, passenger information systems that transmit audio and
video signals represent standard equipment on most trains
and increasing numbers of travelers are expecting to find a
high-end infotainment system with internet access. All of this
presents rail operators with the need to increase transmission
capacity and adapt existing rolling stock to the changes in
user requirements.
The preLink®
installation system and Ha-VIS EtherRail®
cables specially configured for railway requirements al-
low these future-oriented data networks to be quickly and
reliably set up and installed. The fundamental idea behind the
preLink®
technology is the separation of the cable connection
and the mating face. At its core is a cable terminal block in
which the stranded wires are inserted separately. The assem-
bly process is completed with pliers that ensure reliable re-
sults.
The small size of the contact block means that the data cables
can be prepared ready for use outside of the car and then in-
stalled. The Ha-VIS preLink®
terminal block can then be fitted
to any of the various Ha-VIS preLink®
mating faces depending
on the network device to which it is to be connected. RJ45 and
M12 D- or X-coded connectors in protection classes IP20 and
IP65/67 are all possible options. This uniquely varied range
of mating faces with the same connection technology cuts
planning and warehousing costs as well as the installation
time and the error rate. Particularly given the long periods of
use in railway technology, these products offer a high level of
flexibility and a safe investment.

Innovative HARTING solution
for urban railways and subways
As a global leader in rail transportation systems, Ansaldo
STS develops leading edge train control technologies. For one
of their urban railway projects, the company developed an
autonomous inductive train control system (Automatic Train
Control, ATC). This system must be as light weight, compact
and cost efficient as possible, and above all, reliable. Earlier
ATC systems were based on Standard DIN circuit boards and
were wired with discrete internal wiring looms. This approach
was costly, both in the lamination and also with respect to the
wiring of the individual cables. The newly developed HARTING
multi circuit board for the internal interconnection of power,
signal and data eliminates the internal wiring entirely.
The custom backplane bus is equipped with DIN D96 and E48
circuit board connectors as well as Han®
Q 5/0 PCB adapters,
Han®
108 DD PCB adapters, M12 and D-Sub. The connectors
are characterized by high reliability and safety, as well as the
utmost durability. The compact Han®
PCB adapters provide a
direct connection into the Han®
bulkhead fittings, thereby sav-
ing space and weight.
With the new system, Ansaldo STS has also streamlined the
supply chain, since HARTING delivers the circuit boards com-
pletely populated and ready for installation.

Urban railways and subways are booming in the United States and recording
double-digit growth rates. HARTING has co-developed a customer
specific circuit board for autonomous inductive train
control systems for Ansaldo STS in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania.
The HARTING solution eliminates the
wiring entirely.

HARTING is adding differential current transformers to its range of current
sensors. These transducers can detect residual currents at an early stage
and initiate troubleshooting with their output signals before interrupters are
triggered and systems come to a standstill. The first product in the series is
a core balance transformer to measure alternating currents up to 10A,
optimized for wind energy applications.

HARTING single-piece core transformer for
frequencies up to 10 A
The single-piece core transformer from
HARTING measures differential currents
in single or multi-phase power cables.
The components measure the current de-
viation in supply and return conductors
to consumers. It is designed for a max-
imum cable diameter of 110 mm and
detects primary nominal currents of up
to 10 A with a conversion ratio of 1:600.
This conversion ratio allows signals
which can be processed by the analysis
electronics. The transformer can be
used for frequencies in the range of
5 - 400 Hz.
The differential current transformer
conforms to protection class IP65 in
accordance with IEC 60 529. The proven
HARAX®
insulation displacement connec-
tion technology offers simple, quick and
tool-free assembly. The wide temperature
range of -15° C to +55° C also permits use
in thermal-critical applications.
The housing of the current convert-
er is very robust and is optimized for
high holding forces of up to 250 kg.
As a result, the product is ideal for use
in wind power plants where frequen-
cy converters are subjected to high
mechanical stresses (such as being used
as a climbing aid).
The first differential current converter
in the HARTING sensor product family
will not remain the only one: The present
version that is configured for primary
currents up to 10 A can be readily adapt-
ed in terms of the measurement range,
the conversion ratio, the accuracy and
mechanical or design changes.

Onboard Ethernet connection
securing dependable train travel
The railway industry in Japan is in-
creasingly deploying Ethernet to inte-
grate systems previously divided by ap-
plication to a unified network and to deal
with increasing data volumes. This trend
is expected to accelerate as IEC (Interna-
tional Electrotechnical Commission) re-
cently released the Ethernet standard for
railway ECN (Ethernet Consist Network).
The Japanese monorail operator, TOKYO
MONORAIL CO. LTD. uses Ethernet
connection to transmit control signals
and monitoring data as well as to offer
passenger information via a LCD in
its new 10000 series trains. HARTING’s
Ethernet connectivity products were
adopted for the onboard network equip-
ment of the new trains.
For TOKYO MONORAIL’s ATI (Auton-
omous decentralized Train Integrated
system) intended for onboard infor-
mation control networks the inter-car
connection employed the Ethernet
cable Ha-VIS EtherRail®
which was put
in bellow-shaped jumper cable and the
IP68 connector for extreme conditions

HPR.
The Ethernet transmission in the rail-
cars is built with IP65/67 M12 circu-
lar connectors and Ha-VIS EtherRail®
cables. The seamless Ethernet connec-
tion including intercar connections
enabled to provide high transmission
quality supporting dependable train
operation and passenger information
services on a LCD with up to four lan-
guages.
