Testers and components for PROFINET, PROFIBUS, CAN, EtherCAT and EthernetIP networks

PROFIBUS, PROFINET, CAN, EtherCAT, and EthernetIP communications are part of virtually every production line. Since 2008, we have been involved in the proper construction and flawless operation of these networks. We can analyze, measure, and repair all of the industrial buses mentioned above. We provide regular inspections and express repairs in the event of communication failures. At our training center in Liberec, we teach our customers the basics of these communications, their diagnostics, and repairs also in English.

We look forward to seeing you at our e-shop, directly at your facility, or at the FOXON Academy.

Case Study: PROFINET at Magna Powertrain Under Control

Case Study: PROFINET at Magna Powertrain Under Control

Magna Powertrain lacked sufficient visibility and detail about PROFINET communication on production lines running 24/7. With ongoing digitalization and data collection from production, they no longer wanted to troubleshoot outages by “trial and error.” They wanted to quickly identify the root cause of issues or prevent them altogether, see the live topology, keep event logs, and monitor whether errors were accumulating anywhere.


PROFIBUS: 3 Sins and 10 Tips

PROFIBUS: 3 Sins and 10 Tips

The PROFIBUS industrial bus is highly tolerant and will forgive many faults. But if a critical fault occurs—or several small ones accumulate—you will definitely notice. That’s why this aging industrial network deserves attention. Even if faults on your network are still rare, they will gradually accumulate. What do our technicians recommend? What are their 10 tips for maintaining PROFIBUS?
