EcoStruxure™ Automation Expert
100% efficiency, 100% operational effectiveness and 100% future proof.
Are you ready to Embrace Industry 5.0?
Embracing Industry 5.0 requires secure, free flow of data all the way from smart products to the cloud
Industrial automation hasn’t changed much in the last 50 years.
It may sound surprising that any automation system cannot be used with any programming package or control applications written for one company’s platform typically won’t run on another company’s platform without at least a few ‘tweaks’.
This is partly due to our over-reliance on proprietary systems, that makes it harder for businesses to adapt quickly to changing demands.
The Solution
Universal automation enabled by the IEC61499 standard.
It’s time for industry to move away from proprietary systems, towards standardized systems – what we call universal automation.
- Build
Build applications using software components that are ‘portable’ and easy to install on any automation hardware
- Deploy
Deploy applications across different types of system hardware, architectures or components with minimal programming effort, whether highly distributed, centralized, or both
- Support
Take advantage of IEC61499 support for mainstream software best practices, so interoperability with IT systems is easy to achieve
An open, next-generation control automation platform designed for more agile, resilient, and efficient operations.
EcoStruxure™ Automation Expert is changing the game for industrial organizations. It is freeing your equipment from closed, proprietary technology, and reinventing automation by uniting assets from different brands and systems with a common language and grand design.
