19.1 18.6
An enhanced version of the STARDOMTM
network-based control system includes
a newly developed high-speed CPU module
for the FCN autonomous controller. Based
on the concept of putting forward a product
that is Faster, Stronger, Smarter, STARDOM
will feature the new CPU module, improved
environmental resistance, and an enhanced
engineering tool.
STARDOM is a network-based production
control system that consists of the FCN
autonomous controller and the VDS or FAST/
