Working with shakers under the rules of e.g. ISO-9001 or GLP/GMP requires continuous monitoring of all influencing parameters such as temperature, humidity, shaker speed and CO2 concentration. For this reason all Kuhner machines are equipped with a CAN-bus (Controller Area Network). The CAN-bus is characterized by its reliability and flexibility.
The NET-60 is a very flexible interface. It allows almost all conventional Bus-systems to be connected to the CAN-bus of a Kuhner shaker. Using the NET-60 technology it is possible to connect a large number of Kuhner W, X or Z shakers with an OPC server system.
Choose from many standardized systems such as:
Bus | Physical Layer |
|---|---|
Modbus/TCP | Ethernet |
Ethernet/IP | Ethernet |
PROFINET IO | Ethernet |
Modbus RTU | R232 / RS485 |
PROFIBUS DP-V1 | RS485 |
DeviceNet | CAN |
CANopen | CAN |
The CAN-USB module connects the CAN-bus of the shaker with the USB interface (universal serial bus) of a PC. The power supply for the CAN-USB module is via the USB port of the PC.

Using a CAN-Ethernet gateway the shaking machine can be linked via the internet/Ethernet to your PC. A UDP/IP based block transfer protocol (BTP) is used for the communication. In this way the CAN-messages are sent to the Ethernet with minimal delay. The PC only requires a network connection to the Ethernet. Kuhner Insight software simultaneously manages up to 5 gateways (machines).
The EMI module is plugged into a CAN connection and firmly attached. The EMI has several interfaces:
