Automation in the process industry

Extreme environmental conditions and high safety requirements present the process industry with very particular challenges. At the same time, there is growing cost pressure, regulations are being tightened and requirements are ever more individualised. How can you increase the process reliability and standardisation of your systems in future and thus optimise the efficiency, flexibility and time to market? Make use of the automation know-how and industry expertise from Festo.

Reduce complexity: control modular systems independently of the command level

The relocation of automation intelligence from the control system level to the module’s own controller means machine builders are faced with new challenges. It is precisely these challenges that Festo addresses with the CODESYS library PA Toolkit, giving module developers a tool for intuitively generating the complete automation solution, operator display visualisation and MTP description file.

This makes the programming of decentralised controllers like the CPX-CEC from Festo much easier.
