Weintek Love in the Wild

Playing around with some of the other features in Weintek USA Easy Builder Pro software. They have an MQTT broker, this is pretty neat. What you're seeing below is data from several IO Link sensors, all ifm sensors connected to a 4 port master. All of this is programmed in CODESYS North America Codesys 3.5 running on the HMI. I set up an MQTT topic within Easy Builder Pro to publish the temperature sensor value to and the status of it being connected. This is set to publish every second. Using MQTT.FX (you can get a free 90 day trial) on my laptop, I'm able to subscribe to that topic and see the data published.

Hi, I'm Jacob and #IamHAHN since 2020. I first joined HAHN Automation Group as a co-op student, completing three rotations between 2020 and 2021 while studying at the University of Cincinnati. After graduating, I started full time in May 2023 as a Controls Engineer in Software. In this role, I program and debug machines from power on through final shipment. I work with Allen Bradley PLCs, ROS2 systems in Ubuntu, HMIs (Allen Bradley and Weintek), Machine Vision Systems (Cognex and Keyence), and more. Even early on, my time at HAHN was filled with learning and hands-on experience. Now, full time, it continues to be a rewarding journey with plenty of variety. What I appreciate most is that every day brings something new. I am constantly expanding my technical knowledge, improving my communication skills, and stepping into leadership opportunities through customer interaction and group coordination. A standout moment was programming a show machine with Mecademic robots in my first year and traveling to the ATX Trade Show in California. It opened my eyes to the scale of the automation industry and gave me the chance to meet other integrators and vendors. Another proud achievement has been seeing a project through from start to finish and watching a machine ship out successfully. My best experience at HAHN has been taking on a customer's new end of line functional tester. It is a significant departure from our typical project at HAHN, which made it especially fulfilling. Through this project, I gained valuable technical skills like Ubuntu, ROS2, EtherCAT, Python, MQTT, and Weintek HMI. I also formed connections with the customer's software team and have become HAHN’s go-to person for this technology which is great for my career growth and something I’m proud of.

Its CRAZY, if they want to grow they will have to change, and Weintek is on the right track with this software. As a matter of fact eventually they will have to change or face huge financial loss because of it. Keep it up Weintek.

Been learning motion control with Codesys. using Ethercat servo's, Something I've always wanted to do but never had the time or space at work. So bought a 3 axis router frame kit. modified it to take servo motors. and jumped on in. It's been a very cool project and a great project to learn on. Still lots of small functionality to program in. but its operational. Just done the auto tool zero, so at the push of a button on the HMI it will measure the height of the tooling and offset correctly to the set cut depth. Check out. lnkd.in/gXPcQ2zV
