Joint real-time solution

TTTECH and Codesys GmbH have enjoyed a successful partnership for many years and are now announcing an expanded collaboration. With the CODESYS Runtime fully integrated into the Nerve edge platform, implementing hardware-independent control solutions becomes even easier for users.

Codesys is a globally widespread, hardware-independent automation software compliant with IEC 61131-3 for controlling machines and systems. As a standard tool for PLC programming, it is used for both simple and complex control tasks in numerous applications. The container-based runtime, "Codesys Virtual Control," abstracts the required hardware even further than before.

TTTTECH Industrial's Nerve platform complements these capabilities with a secure, IEC 62443-4-2 certified edge platform managed in the cloud. It connects machines and IT systems, enables centralized software management throughout the entire lifecycle, and brings virtualization and container technology to the industrial world. This enables machine builders to roll out new digital functionalities, analyze data, and future-proof their machines – without compromising cybersecurity or real-time performance.

Users will benefit from the deepening of the existing collaboration between the two companies: With Nerve as an edge platform bundled with the CODESYS Runtime, they can significantly reduce the effort required for software integration. This creates an integrated ecosystem that offers machine builders a comprehensive solution for control technology and new digital business models. Furthermore, they gain added value through the use of PLC data all the way to the cloud.
