More Power, Wider Data Sharing (Siemens PLC)

Overall, PLCs are getting faster, smaller, cheaper and more powerful. As a result, they are gaining capabilities that used to be the exclusive domain of the Personal Computer (PC) and workstation arena. This translates into critical data quickly and cheaply being shared directly between the PLCs on the Factory Floor and the Business Level of the company. These are not your father’s PLCs.

Some of the features that a PLC can bring to your automation projects are Web Servers, FTP Servers, sending E-mail and Internal Relational Databases. The following is a brief overview of these features and some of their uses.
