The Siemens SIMATIC S7-1200 controllers are a good choice when it comes to flexibly and efficiently performing automation tasks in the lower to medium performance range. They feature a comprehensive range of technological functions and integrated communication as well as a compact and space-saving design.
The controller is designed as a compact CPU, which means that IOs are already integrated. Yet the S7-1200 station can be equipped with additional IO modules to enlarge the capabilities of the PLC and make it suitable for a range of Australian industry applications.
Fail-safe CPUs can be selected when safety is required in the product offering.
Because of these features, the S7-1200 offers some of the most flexible possibilities with enhanced cross-platform data transfer with other controllers and higher-level or cloud-based systems. The applications are numerous, ranging from industrial use to agriculture and infrastructure projects.
The seamless integration of the SIMATIC controllers into the common engineering framework TIA Portal provides consistent data management, the smart library concept and a uniform operating philosophy. This makes it easy to use for system-spanning functions.
Efficient error analysis and fast error localisation with the new uniform display concept shortens commissioning times and minimises production downtimes. The controller provides users with diagnostic functionality already integrated in the system without additional programming work.
Secure communication, know-how protection, copy protection and access protection prevent manipulation, opening and duplication of blocks by unauthorised persons, thus protects the user’s algorithm or process.
The controllers are suitable for compact automation solutions with integrated IOs, communication and technology functions for automation tasks in the low to medium performance range.
