Interlift 2017

=CANopen-Lift on the Interlift 2017= At the Interlift 2017 again CANopen-Lift was represented with its own booth to inform visitors about the standard CANopen-Lift. Since the last Interlift 2015 a lot has happened. The number of members has risen and plenty of new products have been equipped with a CANopen interface. Some of them were displayed on this Interlift at the CANopen booth or presented directly at the booth of the manufacturer. CANopen-Lift gets more and more important internationally. Meanwhile it is represented in over 50 nations.

This trend could also be observed on the Interlift 2017.

New demonstrators
In 2015 for the first time some of the new products were presented with the new CANopen demonstrators. These offer many advantages over the ‘old’ demonstrators. With the help of the installed flexyPage displays, sensor data can be visualised directly and the function of the products can be displayed appealingly via multimedia elements. This concept was received very well by the visitors.

At Interlift 2017, visitors have repeatedly given feedback that the old demonstrators are outdated and should be updated. The Marketing Group Lift will discuss this in the upcoming meeting.

New CANopen-Lift image video
In 2015 the marketing group CANopen-Lift has created a new image video about the open standard. It primarily aims at decision makers, engineers and developers of electrical components and is meant to provide decision aid for the development of new products. It was shown at the CANopen booth together with the ‘old’ video.

In the period from 17th to 20th October 2017 the world's largest trade fair for elevator technology Interlift 2017 took place in Augsburg/Germany.

The CiA was present there once again. They informed about CANopen-Lift and presented the CANopen-Lift demonstrator to show the functionality of CANopen in lifts.

There were many new and familiar CANopen products at the stands of many manufacturers. We provide a list in this wiki.
