Control platforms
Open and flexible
PLCnext Control is the first product in Phoenix Contact's open control platform based on 'PLCnext Technology'. According to the provider, the controller combines the robustness and safety of a classic PLC with the openness and flexibility of smart devices.
In addition to classic PLC programming in accordance with IEC 61131, PLCnext Technology enables controllers to be programmed in high-level languages, whereby PLC-typical real-time performance and data consistency are also ensured for high-level languages and model-based code. Several developers can work independently of each other in different programming languages, using their favorite development tools. Open source software and apps can be flexibly integrated into the system. The controller offers extended connectivity thanks to open interfaces and a direct cloud connection. It also has a high-performance CPU and a large data memory in a small housing.
