  • Patent number: 11263359
    Abstract: Systems and method for selecting option packs using guided selection via base designs. A processor may display visualizations that represent types of option packs associated with the industrial device assembly. Each visualization may include a slide visualization that moves selectable levels. The selectable levels may include a first selectable level and a second selectable level. For instance, the first selectable level may correspond to a first rating related to a respective operation of a respective type of option pack. After receiving a first selection of a type of option pack and a second selection representative of a selectable level, the processor may identify an option pack that corresponds to the first and second selections. In turn, the processor may generate an updated base design and layout based on the identified option pack.

  • Publication number: 20220044901
    Abstract: A system may include a power supply that generates a first voltage. The power supply may couple upstream from an electrical load. The electrical load may operate based at least in part on the first voltage. In some cases, a solid-state circuit breaker may be coupled between the power supply and the electrical load. Furthermore, a control system may be communicatively coupled to the power supply, the electrical load, and the solid-state circuit breaker. The control system may receive an operational status from the solid-state circuit breaker and may update a visualization rendered on a graphical user interface based at least in part on the operational status. The operational status may indicate an operation of the solid-state circuit breaker coupling the power supply to the electrical load.

  • Publication number: 20220019199
    Abstract: A system for performing industrial automation control may include a first device that generates a first set of data formatted according to a first protocol and a second device that generates an automation command. The automation command may control the first device based on the first set of data. The second device may interpret data formatted according to a second protocol. The system may include a broker system coupled between the first device and the second device to transform data communicated between the devices, such as the first set of data, the automation command, or both. For example, the broker system may transmit a set of data generated to communicate the first set of data to the second device formatted according to the second protocol as opposed to being formatting according to the first protocol.

  • Publication number: 20210150081
    Abstract: Systems and method for generating a base design and corresponding layout based on client data and an electrical load list. The electrical load list may include any number of electrical components for an industrial device assembly. A processor may determine parameters that define levels of operations for each of the electrical components based on the client data and subsequently identify a set of base designs based on the parameters. Additionally, supporting modules that assist operations of at lead one of the electrical components may be added to the base design. In turn, the set of base designs and corresponding supporting modules may be displayed to a user as a set of visualizations. In response to receiving a selection of a particular visualization that represents a particular base design, the processor may generate and display a layout corresponding to the particular base design.

  • Publication number: 20210149377
    Abstract: Systems and method for generating Ethernet modules based on base designs. After a processor receives a base design for an industrial device assembly, the processor may calculate electrical load limits for sections of the base design based on dimensions of the sections, a number of sections, a location of the industrial device assembly, and the like. Based on the electrical load limits, the processor may determine a number of Ethernet modules for the sections and respective placements of the Ethernet modules within the base design. The processor may update a layout of the industrial device assembly based on the number of Ethernet modules for the sections and respective placements of the Ethernet modules within the base design.

  • Publication number: 20200101612
    Abstract: An autonomous machine is wirelessly controlled by a system controller in an industrial control environment, such as a factory with industrial processes and machines, to move to a coordinate location corresponding to a unit of a Motor Control Center (MCC) or Switchgear equipment supporting the industrial control system to maintain, repair, monitor and/or troubleshoot the equipment without the need to place a human operator in harm's way of energized circuits. The system controller, which could be a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) controlling the industrial control system, can monitor operational statuses with respect to each unit, and can dispatch the autonomous machine as required. The autonomous machine can include a mechanical arrangement operable to connect and disconnect power with respect to a unit and/or to withdraw and replace a unit with respect to the equipment.

  • Patent number: 10158203
    Abstract: A fusible conductive material can be used to electrically connect or join power distribution bus bars that are placed on opposing sides of an electrically insulating bus support. The fusible conductive material can be placed in an opening or hole in the bus support with the bus bars abutting the fusible conductive material on opposing sides. The fusible conductive material can then be ignited, such as by applying a voltage drop, to produce a localized heat source suitable to electrically join the bus bars together. By electrically connecting the bus bars in this manner, the bus bars can better conduct, be less susceptible to separation and require less maintenance with respect to connectivity.
