ABB introduces Automation Extended, a new approach to industrial automation that combines PLC, DCS, and control systems for seamless operations. This solution enhances process continuity and supports factory automation initiatives, enabling faster deployment and more reliable production control.
Most technicians easily manage standard I/O values for sensors and actuators across a factory automation network. However, high-level industrial automation requires a deeper look into the controller's internal engine. Beyond simple inputs and outputs, every PLC generates internal "system values" that provide critical data about the processor's health and environment. Accessing these hidden variables allows developers to create more resilient and self-aware control systems.
In the era of Smart Manufacturing, machines must do more than just execute tasks. They must communicate. As an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), choosing how to move data from a PLC to a cloud server or a local database is a critical design decision. While MQTT and OPC UA both facilitate data transfer, their underlying architectures serve very different purposes within industrial automation.
