👀Caught in the act! 👀 Don't let a lack of vision rob you of precious production time. With Event Video Playback enabled by TwinCAT Vision, operators can instantly review exactly what occurred to cause system downtime, whether an unexpected application fault or our mischievous product manager, Todd Jarvey. 📹 By giving maintenance and engineering teams clear visual context with what amounts to "instant replay", you can speed up troubleshooting, boost safety, and minimize unplanned downtime on your machines. 👉 Visit our website to learn more and get access to a free Event Video Playback download for your TwinCAT software: https://loom.ly/u621Sro #Beckhoff | #TwinCAT | #MachineVision

⚽ 🤖 When you get a call asking if you'd like to help build a robot that goes head-to-head with Cristiano Ronaldo… you say yes before they’re even done asking. 🙌 Huge congratulations to Jakob Sagatowski, Mark Rober, and Ian Charnas for turning this wildly ambitious concept into a real, functioning, Ronaldo-defending robotic goalkeeper. We’re proud that Beckhoff technology, and a lot of Jakob’s brilliant programming, helped bring it to life! A few behind-the-scenes details we’re especially proud of: ✅ Coordination with an OptiTrack ultra-high precision motion capture solution. ✅ A Beckhoff CX5140 Embedded PC running #TwinCAT software accepting values from a Python application via ADS communications which controls the robot’s drives to move at hyper-speed to goaltending position. ✅ PLC code and #EtherCAT network running at a 250 µs cycle time to reduce latency. ✅ An HMI to home and test high-speed motion sequences. 💫 This project is a great example of what can happen when curiosity meets collaboration in the spirit of friendly competition: #PCBasedControl can play far outside the bounds of industrial automation. 👇 Don’t miss the full video below! 👇
