End-to-end communication for IEC61850
Bachmann CPU operates as MMS Client
Distribution system operators require compliance with the infeed management from the infeeding network subscribers. If the Bachmann M1 controller is used for automation, this can access external devices as an MMS client. In many cases this makes it unnecessary to hard-wire discrete signal wires.

Standardized MotionControl: Drive incorporation made easy
When incorporating peripheral components into a controller system the limiting factors of the used fieldbuses must be taken into consideration. Similarly, when dealing with drives, the drive profile and the performance of the motors in certain operation states must also be taken into account.
If this occurs in the actual controller, a change of the application then always involves an exchange of external components. Using a consistent layered architecture, Bachmann electronic goes a decisive step further with the division of control logic from fieldbus connection.

Optimistic despite noticeable crisis
- 2008: Increase in personnel and
results; slow down in turnover
- 2009: Strength in innovation will bring
further growth
2008 saw further growth and positive results at Bachmann, the internationally active hi-tech company, despite a slow down in turnover in the last quarter. “With our innovative products we were able to strengthen our market position. However, towards the end of the year we were hit by a decrease in purchase orders from machine builders and projects being put on hold in the wind energy industry”, explains Gerhard Bachmann, founder and owner of Bachmann electronic. On the whole though the automation solution specialist is happy with the 2008 business year results and is calculating further growth in turnover for 2009.
