PLCnext Technology is the ecosystem for industrial automation consisting of open hardware, modular engineering software, a global community, and a digital software marketplace.
Data Centric: Use the PLCnext to collect data from a variety of sources. Once it is gathered, a local dashboard can be displayed on the embedded HTML5 web page. This can also be utilized for overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
Safe and Secure: The PLCnext is built to comply with IEC 62443-4-2, ensuring robust security from the ground up. It also supports PROFIsafe, enabling functional safety for industrial applications. The controller can bring safety and security together.
Communicative: Notify stakeholders though a variety of channels. With support for many different applications you can send email SMS telegram messages and more.
Connect Yesterday to Tomorrow: With a wide range of supported protocols, it is simple to convert from what you have into what is required—whether it’s HART to IEC 61850 or Serial to Ethernet.
Network Manager: The PLCnext is able to read the status of switches (SNMP) and then feed this data into a higher level system such as a SCADA for more visibility.
Edge Device: The PLCnext can aggregate data from many systems. Once the collection is done, it can be securely sent to other systems. Maintaining security while allowing communications.
