PC-based Automation – an overview.

Embedded Automation

SIMATIC Embedded Automation is a control technology based on ready-to-use embedded SIMATIC PCs with a high degree of ruggedness for the most diverse requirements. At the same time, you profit from the openness and flexibility of an embedded SIMATIC PC: Windows XP Embedded and typical PC interfaces.

Industrial PCs for every requirement

Economy, performance, reliability. Whether you choose a SIMATIC Box PC, Rack PC, Panel PC or the modular SICOMP system – our industrial PCs from the ideal basis of your PC-based Automation solution.

Logic Control with SIMATIC WinAC

For open and cloes-loop control tasks, process optimization and measured value analysis: The Windows Automation Center WinAC offers scalable solutions from the Slot PLC to the Software PLC, including real time and deterministic features as well as for the embedded field. Open interfaces are available for linking technological functions.

Keep movement under control with Motion Control

For coupled axes, winder controls and electronic cams – with Easy Motion Control or SIMOTION. complex technology functions through to digital drives can be implemented quickly and easily.

Visualization: See it all at a glance

For operation, plant display, alarm management, measured-value archiving and recipe management: With ProTool/Pro and WinCC your most important data are soon on view. And the visualization function executes in parallel with the control functions on the same PC.

Networks: Communication over all levels

With the machine level and IT world on a single platform: SIMATIC NET supports communication between PC-based Automation and higher-level management systems as well as with the I/0 at the field level by means of Industrial Ethernet and PROFIBUS.

Powerful drive solutions: Drives

With a MICROMASTER standard drive or SIMODRIVE High Dynamic Drive: In PC-based Automation, it can all be seamlessly integrated using the engineering tool Drive ES – from configuring through to diagnostics.

Distributed I/0: Intelligence on-site

With PROFIBUS, PC-based Automation connects to the open world of the fieldbus level – for fast configuration and easy start-up. And the SIMATIC ET 200 product range provides a complete spectrum of block I/0, modular I/0 and IP65 I/0.
