At Beckhoff, automation is our passion. Our team of industry experts will be available to discuss your applications and offer game-changing solutions through hands-on demos and engineer-to-engineer conversations. We can't wait to help you discover the future of adaptive automation technology!
The era of the cabinet-free machine is here! With pluggable IPC, I/O, and drive technology modules, this machine-mounted system maximizes space efficiency while eliminating cabinet/panel layout wiring time and requirements. The modular, IP67-rated control cabinet replacement supports applications ranging from local control to distributed architectures on machines and production lines
Freedom of choice to run the OS best for your application on a Beckhoff automation controller, optimizing hardware utilization and supporting virtual OSs and Virtualized machine control. Run containers directly on the machine controller, access GPU resources for demanding tasks, and ensure real-time execution. Additionally, it supports modular control applications for flexible automation for all kinds of industrial systems.
TwinCAT PLC++ is the latest breakthrough in the proven TwinCAT automation ecosystem. With seamless integration of DevOps workflows, TwinCAT PLC++ is accellerating the convergence of automation and IT. The result is advanced PLC technology that boosts the performance of the TwinCAT runtime and the user-friendliness of its engineering environment.
Did you know that TwinCAT automation software works hand in hand with MATLAB® and Simulink®? Access to the MathWorks tools and community enables unique and impactful capabilities for automation applications. Model-based design, simulation, algorithm development, AI implementations and more can be seamlessly integrated with a Beckhoff real-time controls system.
Total freedom with 6D motion, automated path planning and rapid changeovers? You just have to check out how XPlanar and its magnetically flying movers can transform your application. Not to be outdone, our tried and true XTS linear transport system still has plenty of new tricks to reveal such as No Cable Technology (NCT) for powered end effectors on movers.
In machine safety, going for “good enough” is never actually enough. Ensuring the safety of your people, equipment and products is paramount. TwinSAFE from Beckhoff is the universal programmable safety solution for everything from basic monitoring to complex motion in a fully integrated automation ecosystem.
