Control system

The world of ctrlX AUTOMATION

MAIROTEC integrates the modules from the ctrlX AUTOMATION Building blocks for complete automation solutions. With the ctrlX World partner network, the possibilities in the world of automation are endless.

Automation without limits

ctrlX CORE is the centrepiece of the ctrlX AUTOMATION modular automation system and the basis for digital industrial control systems of the future. ctrlX CORE runs on the Linux-based real-time operating system ctrlX OS. It stands for maximum openness and gives the user access to the entire ecosystem initiated by ctrlX AUTOMATION.

Motion, robotics or CNC: ctrlX MOTION covers all conceivable motion tasks in a highly scalable manner. From simple single-axis applications to large production systems, the user will always find the optimum solution in terms of installation space, function and cost-effectiveness. ctrlX MOTION is characterised by the control of complex large machines, high speed and maximum performance, maximum scalability and simple, intuitive engineering.

ctrlX OS is ctrlX AUTOMATION's proven industrial Linux-based operating system and is recognised as the most modern, open and secure of its kind. It is hardware-independent and seamlessly connects automation components to the entire ctrlX AUTOMATION portfolio, including partner solutions from ctrlX World. Software-based functions can be developed, installed, updated and operated even more easily and flexibly across all levels of the automation topology.

ctrlX WORKS is the ideal solution for engineering automation solutions. The user enjoys maximum flexibility thanks to a comprehensive range of software and programming tools. ctrlX WORKS already contains an extensive portfolio of powerful libraries and modules for typical automation tasks. In addition, users can develop their own applications in any programming language.

ctrlX PLC offers a scalable PLC control solution that combines the advantages of classic PLC automation with the communication and functional requirements of the Internet of Things. The various scalable levels for basic, standard and extended tasks mean that it is always the ideal solution for projects of different sizes.

Automation, control and IT are gradually merging with the IoT. Efficient and secure data exchange offers new opportunities. ctrlX IOT, a central component of ctrlX AUTOMATION, is an advanced IoT toolbox with integrated security that fulfils all Industry 4.0 requirements. The ability to fully integrate IoT solutions into the (hardware) platform opens up unlimited possibilities for users.

With customised hardware and software, it enables state-of-the-art HMI solutions. The broad hardware portfolio includes displays, panel PCs with excellent graphics capabilities, web panels, panel frames and machine control panels in various sizes. The software is provided by ctrlX World partners. ctrlX HMI ensures a perfect user experience and offers flexible, customised applications.

ctrlX I/O is a functional extension of the ctrlX CORE control system with technology and hardware options such as memory expansions, USB and Ethernet interfaces and much more. The setup is compact, has flexible and unlimited topologies, fast commissioning, is perfectly tailored to ctrlX CORE and is future-proof. Together with ctrlX AUTOMATION, ctrlX I/O is a driver for intelligent connectivity in the field of automation.

ctrlX SAFETY is the most compact safety solution of its kind and has the fastest response times. The compact yet scalable system can be used as required - from the drive-integrated SafeMotion solution in ctrlX DRIVE to the complete ctrlX SAFETY control system. In addition to flexible use, the benefits include a very high level of safety and efficient engineering thanks to the graphical programming of the safety PLC. ctrlX SAFETY expands this established platform into a future-orientated safety system.

ctrlX DRIVE is the most compact modular drive system in the world. The system enables the rapid implementation of economical customised solutions that grow with the requirements. The drive system covers both simple single-axis applications and complex multi-axis machine systems. The system is scalable and has a universal design.

 

ctrlX FLOW offers intralogistics solutions for the intelligent factory. With the ctrlX FLOW product family, Bosch Rexroth offers easy-to-integrate solutions for an optimised and highly efficient flow of materials and goods.

ctrlX IPC is a state-of-the-art industrial PC solution that offers flexibility and future viability. ctrlX IPC stands for: powerful edge computing, openness and first-class customer design.
The IPC portfolio can easily access the functions of the ctrlX WORKS software and engineering toolbox. This enables simple, app-based engineering. In addition, the industrial PC can be easily combined with ctrlX HMI, which supports intuitive machine operation.
