PLCnext Technology - the ecosystem for limitless automation
PLCnext Technology offers many advantages for the development, project planning, and operation of automation solutions thanks to its openness. The platform is adaptable and makes it possible to quickly react to new market requirements. PLCnext Technology consists of PLCnext Control, PLCnext Engineer, the PLCnext Store, and the PLCnext Community.
PLCnext Control Hardware for PLCnext Technology
PLCnext Control are the hardware of PLCnext Technology and offer an open Linux environment with access to more data via IoT systems and more flexibility. In addition to standards such as IEC 61131, parallel programming and the combination of programming languages such as C/C++, C# or MATLAB® Simulink® are also possible in real time with PLCnext Control.
There are three different categories of PLCnext Control: Flexible modular controller, high-performance remote field controller, and iPC-based controller.
PLCnext Store The digital marketplace
The PLCnext Store is the digital software marketplace for automation solutions. It provides you with software applications that enable you to expand the functions of the PLCnext Control device directly and easily.
Using suitable apps from the PLCnext Store, you can speed up your application development, saving you laborious programming steps.
PLCnext Engineer Software
PLCnext Engineer is the engineering software for PLCnext Control devices.
By combining all the essential functions for the engineering process in one software package, the flexible engineering tool is more than an all-in-one tool for conventional programming.
