Complete spectrum of automation with PC-based control

At SPS 2024, Beckhoff will present the new TwinCAT PLC++ PLC generation, efficient drive technology, the MX-System for control cabinet-free automation and the use of industrial AI, e.g. with TwinCAT Chat in Hall 7, 406 and in Beckhoff Live + Interactive at beckhoff.com.

From November 12 to 14, 2024, Nuremberg’s exhibition will open its doors once again. With its New Automation Technology, Beckhoff will present the complete range of PC- and EtherCAT-based control technology for smart automation solutions and digitalized machine and plant processes. Among the numerous new products, the new TwinCAT PLC++ PLC generation will be the focus of the exhibition.

TwinCAT PLC++ is a completely new development from Beckhoff that integrates seamlessly into the existing TwinCAT ecosystem. Beckhoff is consistently pursuing the path of merging automation and IT that it has taken from the outset. Although the company has retained familiar and proven features, it has redeveloped key components of the development environment. At the same time, the runtime and engineering performance is improved, creating significant added value, and the switch is easy to make while preserving current TwinCAT functionality

A further TwinCAT highlight is TwinCAT MC3. This software solution bundles all automation processes on a single platform and can be operated in parallel with the existing TwinCAT NC2 motion control solution. Additionally there is no longer a fixed limit on the number of programmable axes in the new generation.

When it comes to drive technology, Beckhoff covers all automation areas with rotary, translatory and linear systems as well as the XTS and XPlanar transport systems. With numerous further developments, such as a larger XPlanar tile, it can be adapted even better to individual requirements.

Beckhoff will be presenting these and other innovations from its entire product range at SPS in Nuremberg. Visitors will find Beckhoff Automation in Hall 7, Stand 406. The event will also be covered by the popular Beckhoff Live + Interactive livestream, which
