A

s the automation industry advances toward digital
transformation, some think that proven manufacturing technologies like pneumatics may become " outdated. " However, pneumatic technologies such as control
valves continue to evolve, incorporating sensors, industrial network interfaces, wireless technology, and complex digital control
features that can significantly improve automation applications
through access to smarter, actionable information.

Valve Control Technology Evolves
Control of pneumatic valves and monitoring of cylinder position sensors were originally achieved through discrete wiring:
Each programmable logic controller (PLC) output was individually wired to a solenoid valve coil and triggered separately, and
position sensors on cylinders were wired back to the PLC's
input card.
Emerson's AVENTICS
 advanced AV03/AV05 valve systems with IIoT integration
aggregate and organize pneumatic performance data and deliver it through separate, parallel pathways to plant management systems, independent of the process
control architecture, to deliver alerts and system-level and device-level performance data.
