Component based Automation

PROFINET

Modern plants are often highly networked, either because the processes require it or the machinery has grown with operations over the years. That’s why you need a flexible basis if you’re seeking to implement an automation solution in this setting.

Component based Automation (CbA) provides excellent possibilities for creating this basis. With its consistent modularization and a decentralized system architecture, it delivers a high degree of compatibility. All parts of your plant are integrated via PROFINET, and all communications relationships can be projected graphically. It’s all very convenient.

OEMs, EPCs and end customers benefit equally from CbA. It simplifies the use of existing equipment and plant structures and shortens commissioning times, while end customers get more flexibility for expansions or production changeovers. And those are exactly the right conditions for greater long-term productivity.
