Future-oriented technologies necessitate intelligent solutions based on systems which can be used flexibly. Cutting your engineering costs will be more and more important in the future. It will be equally as important to assess a future-oriented system on the basis of the aspects of handling, reliability and ease of servicing.
This is exactly why engineering tools are becoming more and more important. Standardised software packages, e.g. to IEC 61131-3, point the way to an open automation structure.
AC31 family
The emphasis is also on continuity in systems engineering, as on the Advant ® Controller 31 automation system from ABB. Thus, the time-proven programmable controllers of the AC31 family are becoming more and more powerful and even more flexible in use.
The new high-performance units are an integral part of the AC31 equipment family and existing know-how forms the basis for use of the new technology.
The time-proven system structure has been retained and additional functionality has been added. These include, for instance, additional, cross-system communication levels.
907 AC 1131
High performance processors and a multi-tasking operating system ensure that even more stringent requirements applicable to future automation tasks can be solved optimally.
The 907 AC 1131 programming software makes available a selection of five different, standardised configuration interfaces. Extensive Online Help and integrated visualisation allow time-optimised configuration and commissioning of the automation task.
