ProviewR

ProviewR is a powerful, open-source process control system for industrial automation.

Description

ProviewR is an open-source process control system offering a modern and powerful solution for various industrial applications. It's designed for sequential control, adjustment, data acquisition, communication, and supervision tasks. Its graphical configuration makes adaptation simple and flexible. As a distributed system, ProviewR can use multiple computers networked together, typically with one control system and one or more operator stations. It supports both graphical PLC editing and high-level programming languages like C, C++, Java, and FORTRAN. ProviewR is based on a soft-PLC solution running on standard computers using the Linux operating system.

Features

ProviewR features a graphical user interface for configuration, supports various communication protocols (e.g., Ethernet, serial), offers flexible I/O system integration (e.g., Profibus/DP, Profinet), provides both graphical PLC editing and high-level programming language support, works as a distributed system across multiple computers, and boasts object-oriented programming capabilities for complex systems and reusable components. It's built on a soft-PLC foundation using standard hardware and Linux, ensuring cost-effectiveness and ease of maintenance.

Benefits

Reduced costs associated with proprietary systems, increased flexibility and customization due to open-source nature, high performance with minimal cycle times, scalability to handle large and complex systems, support for various communication protocols and I/O systems, and the ability to use standard PC hardware.
