Advanced PC-based control maximises your time-critical processes

Supplied by Beckhoff Automation Pty Ltd on Tuesday, 19 February, 2019

Traditionally, PLC-based systems were for short cycle times as a replacement for complex relay technology in machine controls. DCSs (distributed control systems) for classic PID (proportional integral derivative) closed-loop control focused mostly on scalability and system integration.

Discover how these systems can now be combined to optimise processes and meet safety-related requirements.
