AWS Schäfer Technologie contributes to building of offshore wind farm in
USA by producing of XL monopiles which are around 125 meters long, has a
diameter of up to 12 meters and weighs around 2 500 tons.
The conventional production lines are not done for such dimensions,
therefore the gigantic welding system with absolute synchronicity of the
welding process (while the pipe segments are rotated) had to be developed.
Need of high-performance industrial WLAN components that communicate in
real time and ensure roaming times in the millisecond range.
SCALANCE W-700 series with Industrial Coordination Function (iPCF)
ensure synchronous wireless control of the production line.
SIMATIC ET200 SP controllers with integrated safety functionality, so
there is no need to connect other systems.
