Baldor is an industry leader in providing a complete solution for multi-axis automation applications.Our full range
of multi-axis motion controllers, high performance servo drives, rotary and linear servo motors are designed to seamlessly
interface with each other.

When starting work on our next generation real-time Ethernet based products we were looking for a partner who could provide
communications and real-time operating system expertise, fast turn solutions and a close working relationship through all
phases of the product development.

We chose SND because of their expert knowledge of the Hyperstone processor family. We took part in one of the Early Bird
schemes which enabled us to make significant steps early on in the project life. The HynetOS operating system combined
with the Hyperstone DSP provided the step change in performance that we required to enable Ethernet Powerlink to be
realized whilst offering the capability of moving to different Ethernet protocol stacks in the future.

We have over 3 years experience of working with SND and we can confidently recommend SND as a partner to work with on
integrated solutions to help you get the best out of your product.

Integration of Ethernet into sensor devices for industrial automation

FRABA POSITAL is a manufacturer of absolute rotary encoders for industrial automation. When we decided to integrate Industrial Ethernet to our sensor systems we had to find a partner for an Embedded Operating System. Smart Network Devices provided us with a unique scalable solution and outstanding technical support.

Due to an excellent reference design with an integrated fast Ethernet interface it was possible to integrate Smart Network Devices HyNetOS and all standard protocols into our products without a major initial investment, and with a short time to market. At a later stage the reference design could be replaced with our own product specific hardware design without major changes in the software. Undertaking the project in this way allows us to retain previous investments and knowledge. We undertook our first sensor system with integrated Webserver and fast Ethernet interface in 2001. With 4 years experience of cooperation with SND we can clearly recommend SND as a very competent, flexible, reliable and fast acting partner.

Ingenieurbüro Gieselmann / Gipro GmbH

The Ingenieurbüro Christian Gieselmann develops and manufactures image processing systems for various applications in quality assurance, farming, safety engineering, etc.. Some specific customer applications have included, e.g. barcode scanners, data matrix readers, bottle shape analysers, and security readers for returns to vending machines.

The basis of the intelligent image recognition systems are excellent camera systems designed and produced by SND based on high end system on chip solutions. The Ingenieurbüro Christian Gieselmann appreciates SND´s competence, reliability and turn round times, and gives thanks for the amicable and fruitful cooperation.


KATEK:using SND’s Micro WebTarget MWT2 in combination with their Operating System HyNetOS since 2001.

RF Measuring instruments are needed to meet various customer requirments; from high end multifunctional instruments for monitoring cars and in Laboratories , down to handheld analysers for mobile users. Ideally these type of measurement products are developed as a modular construction kit, but this usually requires a multi level processor platform with a lean and deterministic Operating System, high performance with low costs, as well as low power consumption.

The MWT2 with the Smart Network Devices Operating System HyNetOS makes it possible to realize these partly contentious requirements. Additionally, due to the network functionality, it allows even morehigh end functionality to be added to the system (e.g. connecting a fast notebook/laptop to it). Using these features of the Operating System platform it is possible to provide the requirement for remote control with point to point connections used by GSM, WLAN or simple modems. This could be done without significantly impeding system performance in usage and handling routines. The Flash File System in combination with FTP-Server guarantees a significantly simplified maintenance process, and also allows remote updating of the complete system for a complex end product.
