PC-based control concepts – The combination of flexibility and high performance

Developments show that the classical PLC is increasingly being replaced or supplemented by PC-based systems. These systems offer advantages whenever the overall application is used for operation and visualization in addition to the actual control, or when it has to perform other specialized tasks (e.g. image acquisition and evaluation, complex control processes).


The devices feature standardized interfaces, which are used for connecting external peripheral devices. Their performance can be adapted flexibly to suit the given application. For this purpose, Phoenix Contact offers a complete range of PC-based control components based on industrial PCs, all of which interact reliably.
