Using modular machine components both system operators and machine manufacturers save money. Increased efficiency, reusability of system components and rapid reaction to alterations in processes combined with reduced commissioning expense are no mere illusion! Consistent modularization of plants and machines makes decentralized automation child's play. Component based Automation is an approach to automation aimed at consistent modularization of systems and machines. Intelligent modules are constructed, that are able to carry out localized control tasks. This modular approach, which is based on distributed intelligence, is gathering momentum.
