Putting your money where your wireless mouth is
Next Wednesday morning (September 5) you can join us for a Control Engineering Webcast: Wireless in Process Manufacturing. As part of that, I received a call earlier this week from the Honeywell Process Solutions folks (they're one of the sponsors) with a radical offer: They want to give away one of their OneWireless Starter Kits to a lucky participant. It's a little short notice but you can still take advantage of it.
If you register and actually show up on the list of listeners, your company will be eligible provided you are an honest-to-goodness process manufacturer. The intent is to give this away to a company, not an individual. Moreover, you have to be willing to tell us how you use it. (The full rules are being posted on the Control Engineering Website.)
This is a pretty interesting approach to my thinking, not to mention generous. Honeywell is trying to make the point that these kits (and their larger OneWireless platform) is available today. You can begin your wireless exploration now. I'm interested to see who gets this and what comes from it. I hope it turns into a positive experience for all involved.
One other thing: If you registered expecting to hear from Anthony DeSalvo, his presentation has been moved to our second Webcast on Machine Control Without Wires. His presentation is aimed more at the discrete side of manufacturing, so you can register for that Webcast to hear him.
