The CODESYS Group ranks among the world’s leading software manufacturers in the automation industry. The company´s main focus is the development and distribution of CODESYS, the well-known integrated IEC 61131-3 development environment (IDE) for controller applications and CODESYS Control, the platform independent runtime system. Via container or hypervisor, the runtime system can be installed on any device and used as a virtual controller with scalable function, the number of systems can be adjusted. The CODESYS Platform also offers integrated product extensions for the use and configuration of fieldbuses like CAN/CANopen and realtime Ethernet such as EtherCAT or PROFINET, for the generation and display of professional user interfaces (visualizations) and for complex motion control tasks, e.g. for CAMs or CNC/robotics applications. All kinds of DIN 61508 Safety applications for SIL2 and SIL3 can also be developed with the integrated and certified Safety solutions, customized for the requirements.
More than 400 manufacturers of programmable embedded or PC-based devices use CODESYS as their programming interface. The IDE is used for the most different industrial applications, for example for the automation of production and mobile machines or for the automation of power generation systems and buildings. This allows device users to develop specific application software for their purposes – without affecting the system.
CODESYS natively includes all essential technologies and features for applications in Industry 4.0 and IIoT environments. This makes CODESYS the platform for implementing automated processes and cycles while utilizing IT and internet technologies. CODESYS turns a compatible controller into a powerful IIoT solution or into an Edge controller. The cloud-based administration platform CODESYS Automation Server additionally supports the most important service tasks of compatible devices and allows for a central and simple administration via web interface.
Numerous interfaces and toolkits help customers adapt the powerful functionality of CODESYS to their specific requirements. On request, the CODESYS Group offers professional adaptation support. Practice-oriented trainings and qualified consulting for efficient application development help users solve their automation tasks.
