PLC
We know various Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) from major vendors very well. In Europe are Siemens products often used, therefore we have a lot of experience on these products. But also Allen Bradley, B&R and Mitsubishi were used in past projects.
Siemens is a well-known PLC vendor, who offers great products, we used following:
- Simatic S7-400, very powerful suitable for large and medium-sized problems
- Simatic S7-300, powerful suitable for medium-sized problem
- Simatic S7-200, cost efficient and very interesting, it is bigger than you think
Our projects required in most cases a decentralised design, which is best implemented by ET-200M profibus nodes and S7-400 CPU's and Industrial Ethernet connections better automation systems and operation stations.
B&R's X20 is a product that makes one speachless, it's simply incredible.
Allen-Bradley's ControlLogix give us engineers a very modern system design with impressing performance, scalability and programming techniques.
We used Mitsubishi on some smaller cost critical problems with less control requirements.
