ctrlX Works
The software and engineering toolbox
ctrlX WORKS is the central nervous system of the platform and reduces the engineering time for new concepts by 30 to 50%.
In addition to classic PLC languages pursuant to IEC 61131, PLCopen, and G-Code, developers can implement functions without restriction in the form of apps or open source software. Individual functions can be installed and removed without any repercussions for existing apps and also tested virtually.
The central ctrlX Data Layer guarantees continual access to all real time and non-real time data of the installed apps. It is immaterial in this sense whether the apps are installed as runtime apps on a ctrlX CORE or are executed as engineering apps and services on a PC, smart device, or in the cloud.
ctrlX WORKS already includes an extensive portfolio of high-performance apps for typical tasks in the area of factory automation. In addition, users can develop their own programs in any programming language or integrate third-party apps.
