Attention was at this show on the IO system from VIPA, SLIO, which can communicate with a variety of fieldbus systems and therefore also with a variety of different controllers. SLIO fits perfectly to the US market. SLIO can beside the own VIPA and YASKAWA controller also communicate with controllers from Rockwell and Allen Bradley, Schneider Electric, Mitsubishi, Omron, Siemens and many others in a simplest way. Many visitors have perceived that and consider SLIO as a good complement to their existing systems.
