Manfred Werner, 3S-Smart Software Solutions GmbH/Managing Director
“At 3S, there was never any doubt that we would implement SERCOS III in our CoDeSys system. We have had very good experience with SERCOS II. The excellent level of drive profile standardization allows us to operate devices from a variety of manufacturers without time-consuming drive development or modification. SERCOS III already provides the basis for uncomplicated, reliable, fast, synchronous drive data transfer. We believe that it offers us and our customers very significant advantages.”

Dr. Elmar Wings, ProCom Systemhaus und Ingenieurunternehmen
GmbH/Engineering Manager CNC Products
“High productivity, reliability and good investment protection are the outstanding features of our system solutions. For us, there is no alternative to top speed, real-time communication and data transfer as well as unrestricted safety, availability and open design. SERCOS offers this unique profile combined with a proven track record in the field.”

Andreas Birkenfeld, König & Bauer AG/Division Manager Construction System Technology
“Our customers require maximum availability and fully synchronous operation from our printing machines. Simple, modular design in distributed networks, safety functions and a proven track record for precision are strong arguments which clearly speak in favor of SERCOS as our bus system. Successful
implementation of more than 20,000 axes in the field since 1995 confirms us in our conviction that we have made the right choice.”

Peter Lutz, SERCOS International e. V./Managing Director
“In developing SERCOS III, our member companies have driven the continuing evolution of the worldwide SERCOS standard, turning it into a powerful real-time Ethernet solution. SERCOS III offers
a whole range of new and innovative functions, and it sets the standard for current and future motion control applications. SERCOS has now successfully made the transition from a drive interface to a general-purpose automation network.”

Werner Oster, KHS AG Packaging Competence Center/Manager Technical Sales/Product Support
“The system design fits in very well with our philosophy, and that was the crucial factor that tipped the scales in favor of Rexroth. Even back then, Rexroth was able to offer modular system architecture, and that gave us the tools that we needed to do exactly what we had in mind, namely to deliver electronics
which every customer can comfortably handle on site.”

William Christman, Card-Monroe Corp./Director of R&D
“Our flexible tufting machines allow our customers to create innovative patterns and designs, improving their product quality and variation while increasing efficiency and productivity. This requires a fast deterministic machine control system that can easily be modified or updated, while shortening commissioning and startup time through portable programming. SERCOS brings both requirements together, offering the best value as a bus system for our machines.”

Hans-Peter Bock, ISW, University of Stuttgart/Communications Interfaces Group Leader
“SERCOS III is an open communication interface which is used in devices supplied by a range of different manufacturers. Immediate, problem-free device interoperability is only guaranteed if the manufacturers adhere strictly to the specification. On behalf of SERCOS International, we conduct
conformity testing on all SERCOS devices in our test lab. Users have the confidence that certified SERCOS devices are truly compatible.”

Harald Bollhöfener, Fischer und Krecke GmbH & Co./Manager Electronic Engineering
“A robust real-time communication system is absolutely essential for the excellent print quality and reliability of our machines.
The communication system guarantees fully synchronous operation and maximum availability combined with unrestricted productivity. We have decided to use SERCOS which is the established standard in the real-time market.”
