AUMA OFFERS CORALINK NETWORKED SOLUTIONS FOR ACTUATORS Coralink provides closely networked support solutions for AUMA actua tors. It helps plant operators to cope with growing challenges, supporting them across all phases of the plant’s lifecycle, from commissioning and pre dictive maintenance to active lifecycle management of their AUMA actuators. Modules including the AUMA Assistant

service at AUMA. At the heart of Coralink is the ability to evaluate the extensive operating data that AUMA actuators record automatically in their role as intelli gent field devices. The data can easily be read from each AUMA actuator, including via a smartphone, and then analyzed. “A new feature is a detailed action plan with concrete recommendations for action, which is accessible through just a few clicks,” Nietupski says. “By means of these automatically generat ed recommendations, plant operators benefit from the combined expertise of AUMA service experts and decades of field experience. Plant operators can

identify maintenance requirements at an early stage and take corrective mea sures in good time.” Due to its scalability, Coralink saves time and money even when operators simply use it to check the condition of individual actuators. In advanced appli cations, Coralink can be used for com prehensive monitoring of all the actua tors on a plant, as well as to implement IIoT solutions. AUMA provides Coralink free of charge in a very comprehensive basic version. The modules run on standard PCs and smartphones, and need no extra investment in IT infrastructure. More information is available at coralink.auma.com .

App, AUMA CDT and AUMA Cloud interact seamlessly to help plant operators cut costs and enhance plant availability. “Coralink ensures efficient processes and sustained plant availability. Plant operators can tap the full digital poten tials of their AUMA actuators,” says Kevin Nietupski, product management
