Future-proof plant automation with PC-based control
At Achema 2024 from June 10 – 14, Beckhoff will showcase innovative solutions for the process industry’s entire value chain, ranging from manufacturing to packaging. As a specialist in PC- and EtherCAT-based control technology, we’ll present an integrated control system for automating all process steps as part of our comprehensive product portfolio. Our concepts for plant digitalization, smart product transport systems for flexible packaging processes, and the Linux®-based control with TwinCAT will take center stage.
Make sure you don’t miss Laurids Beckhoff and Lennart Winkler’s presentation, “Future-proof plant automation with Ethernet-APL, NOA, and MTP”, at 11 a.m. on June 12 on the Digital Innovation Stage (Booth G46, Hall 11.0).
Get ready to experience our latest innovations. We look forward to seeing you at Booth E27 in Hall 11.0.
Digitalization for the process industry
- end-to-end control platform from zone 0 to the cloud
- edge device for complete data acquisition with NAMUR Open Architecture
- flexible integration of Ethernet-APL with the compact ELX6233
- TwinCAT MTP for the modularization of plants with the Module Type Package
Linux®-based real-time control: TwinCAT Runtime for Linux®
- TwinCAT Runtime for stable real-time control based on Linux®
- modularization of machine and other control applications
- support for container technology such as Docker®, Podman, or LXC
- individual execution of several TwinCAT Runtimes on a single industrial PC
- hardware consolidation through improved utilization of computing capacity
Pluggable system solution for control cabinet-free automation
- modular system with IPC, coupler, I/O, drive, relay, and system modules on scalable baseplates for placing directly on the machine
- for control cabinet-free machine and system concepts in robust metal housings
- simple plug-and-play principle enables module exchange even by non-specialist personnel
