RFP-5PLC bases on the TWINCAT soft plc from Beckhoff. The machine control runs under Windows XP. TWINCAT assures realtime conditions so that a secure operation of the machine is possible.

The combination RFP-5_PLC (TWINCAT) - RFP-5 Industry PC (Beckhoff) is characterised by an outstanding price/achievement relationship, in particular in the comparison with conventional plc solutions.

The PC-based control solution is particularly low-maintenance. The development environment is available on the RFP-5 Industry PC. Development can take place thus directly on the control pc of the machine.
