EJ8xxx | Signal distribution board development

Beckhoff offers development of signal distribution boards as an engineering service. Alternatively, customers can use a design guide to develop the signal distribution board themselves, thereby utilizing their own development capabilities and protecting their expertise.

Following a functional analysis of the machine, a basic machine with auxiliary modules can be derived. The basic machine as the platform covers the standardized machine functions. In order to extend the machine complexity, the platform is supplemented by further EJ modules in the various functional areas. The EJ9001 placeholder modules temporarily close gaps in the module segment and allow further modules to be added later. This enables an extension of the machine complexity from ‘basic’ to ‘extended’ to ‘high-end’.
