Turck ARGEE technology for I/O devices
Engineers, OEMs and integrators can now add logic to compatible I/O devices through Turck’s ARGEE technology. The solution brings logic to the device level so manufacturers can create more flexible control without investing in or upgrading a PLC.
The ARGEE environment is accessible via a HTML5-compatible web browser, which eliminates the need for complex third-party software or licensing that is common with PLCs. Inside the environment, users can set condition and action statements to be carried out by the I/O device. The application’s intuitive design includes a flow chart, similar to ladder logic, which allows for easy programming by users of all experience levels.
By taking advantage of ARGEE on Turck’s multiprotocol Ethernet I/O devices, manufacturers are able to realise field logic controllers.
FLCs benefit small to mid-size OEMs and manufacturers who are looking to add logic without investing in a PLC because the devices can be used as stand-alone logic controllers. FLCs can also enhance PLC operations when used to back up a PLC or as a data processing partner for a PLC.
ARGEE technology is standard in all Turck multiprotocol Ethernet I/O devices. These devices can be used on any Profinet, Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IP platform. They include the TBEN-L/TBEN-S on-machine block I/O, BL compact on-machine flexible block I/O and FEN20 in-cabinet block I/O.
