Modular controller
Automata

SCS is a modular control system based on CAN bus. Its great versatility allows SCS to be used either as standalone control or as main component in distributed control systems. A SCS based structure can also include Industrial PC's, operator panels, drives or distributed I/O's. All connected via the standard fieldbus CAN with CANopen protocol. SCS'advanced control system architecture guarantees economic efficiency by providing:

- Modular architecture with combination of distributed intelligence and distributed IO
- Unique soft- and hardware modules for different machine lines
- Flexible expandability· Reusable software modules thanks to the modular - system architecture
- Ease of applications maintenance even on complex applications
- Integration of the control into the mechanical units· Separate startup of mechanical machine modules
- Reduced installation costs and compact electric cabinets
- Ease of handling: SCS units are snapped on DIN rails and use mainly plug connectors with screw or spring contacts
- Worldwide remote diagnosis, service and firmware/application update, and
- Open international industrial standards like CANopen and IEC61131

The system includes base units (with different I/Os) and extension units to add MODULbus modules with special functionality.

The programming suite for all SCS units is CoDeSys by 3S . This powerful development tool with all IEC 61131-3 functions, soft motion, visualisation and all other necessary features does ensure efficient and comfortable programming.

The SCS modules build a stable platform to solve your unique tasks too. See how we have modified the ‘standard’ units to fulfil .
