The development environment for your project

Reduce component and engineering effort by up to 50% with Control plus from Nexeed Automation and ctrlX AUTOMATION from Rexroth

Significant reduction in development time through simple device connection without programming using block engineering and adding functions such as: B. EtherCAT diagnosis with just a few clicks. Reduction of effort through automatic HMI generation with just one click and virtual commissioning via integrated process simulation and easier device replacement without affecting the PLC code.

Significantly reduce maintenance time

Significantly reduce maintenance time

The key to greatly reduced downtimes in production is the ability of maintenance, service and operators to react quickly. The fast familiarisation time of employees with the machines is crucial for this. Particularly in times of a shortage of skilled labour and frequent staff changes, the efficiency of work and the variety of possible assignments for employees in maintenance, programming and operation are also crucial. Employees should not only be able to programme or maintain all machines in a line or plant, but should also be able to be deployed anywhere in the world in all plants with the shortest possible training period. At Bosch, this is already a reality - thanks to the standardisation of PLC code, HMI and diagnostic functions.

New in the ctrlX store

It has never been so easy to locate cycle time deviations and potential error sources in 3D directly on the machine. From now on you can download our assistance systems, Virtual Assist and Cycle Time Assist in the ctrlX Store.

Virtual Assist

Quickly identify sources of error and machine components with virtual 3D diagnostics

Thanks to intuitive error diagnostics, targeted maintenance and repair measures as well as direct insight into even complex machines, Virtual Assist takes the HMI to a new level: This assistance system allows virtual 3D machines to be created from CAD models with little configuration effort. In contrast to common 2D representations, Virtual Assist makes it possible to view the machine from a wide variety of perspectives. By using the intuitive diagnostic application, faulty machine parts can be easily located and displayed. This completely eliminates the time for troubleshooting - which speeds up maintenance work and minimizes machine downtimes.

Cycle Time Assist

Detect cycle time deviations in your systems and machines at an early stage

With the Cycle Time Assist system, you can effortlessly keep an eye on the cycle times of your entire system. In this way, you can quickly detect cycle time deviations in individual machines or entire production lines and take countermeasures at an early stage to avoid productivity losses. To do this, the Cycle Time Assist records the parts cycle of Control plus-based machines and displays it on the machine's user interface in real time. In addition to the parts cycle, the Cycle Time Assist can start a detailed machine recording over a freely selectable period of time. In doing so, the assistance system logs all the activities of the machine – from every single movement up to communication times with other IT systems: Thanks to the Cycle Time Assist and the optimized interface to Cycle Time Analysis, it is easy to find out where the cycle time deviation comes from.
