JVL has introduced the Profinet
Industrial Ethernet protocol for the
complete JVL range of integrated
servo motors. The Profinet protocol
was originally developed by Siemens
for use with its PLCs, but can also be
used by other suppliers that use the
Profinet interface.

Last year JVL introduced
EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP modules,
and earlier this year Ethernet
POWERLINK became available. And
since SERCOS III and MODBUS
TCP/IP are under development, all
important Industrial Ethernet
protocols will soon be available.

The Industrial Ethernet module
from JVL fits into the complete range
of integrated servo motors from 50 to
3000W, and is a versatile module with
the ability to be upgraded with other
protocols or newer versions of the
same protocol at any time.
