Get to know "Codesys"

Codesys is a software from Germany. Designed to solve the problem of programmers in automation systems who have to write PLC software from many brands.
Codesys software IDE is widespread in Europe, with information from the codesys website indicating that it has at least 1,000 member devices (Several million CODESYS-compatible devices and approximately 1,000 different device types from over 500 manufacturers make CODESYS the leading manufacturer-independent IEC 61131 -3 automation suite.'https://www.codesys.com/the-system/codesys-inside.html') For example: ABB AG,ADVANTECH,Beijer,Bosch Rexroth,Eaton,Festo SE,Hitachi Europe,IFM, JUMO,KEP,Opto22,WAGO,Weidmuller,Delta

Benefits
As for manufacturers, because hardware manufacturers do not need software developer engineers to develop their own software, this reduces costs in this area.
which reduces costs Every company will turn to develop their own hardware PLC or PAC to be more efficient and cheaper.
As for general users, you can download the software for free at the website www.codesys.com, software codesys has an internal library to use with many commands and can add libraries from outside or additional library developers, some of which will. It is open source and can be edited and customized further. Make program development faster, more concise, and more stable. And the important thing is that you can study the codesys software. Just one software can be used with every brand of PLC or PAC that is a member of codesys.
Highlights of codesys
- Supports a variety of programming formats LD,FBD,CFC,ST,SFC (IEC61131-3) according to the user's aptitude Added with OOIP (object-oriented industrial programming)
-Has Visaulization and Webvisaulization Built-in for easy development of HMI, SCADA in one software and able to simulate
- Supports various types of standard Felid bus, consistent with modern production processes and machines. Currently, various types of feild bus are commonly used to reduce the complexity of old-style wiring (hard wire), such as ModbusTCP, EthernetIP, Profinet, CanOpen, IO-link, and others. Any other
- Supports standard CiA402 motion control commands via high-speed EtherCAT bus (CSP, PP, PV, Homing mode), which is commonly used in multi-axis motion control applications that use servo drives or stepping drives as EhterCAT to reduce complexity. in the wiring and limitations in the pulse train command, all old and the same standard, making it possible to replace damaged equipment without depending on any one brand (Interchange)

Communication is connected according to the same standard. As for Thailand, at this time it may not be widespread in the industry because most factories still use PLCs from Japanese and European and American companies that are not yet members of CodeSys, except for newer machines imported from Europe. The codesys controller is installed with the machine, including newer machines from some Chinese manufacturers. Automation developer, programmer and those involved in technology, including educational institutions It may be time to study and learn software codesys as another option in the near future. To make working in automation systems have more international standards and to keep up with new technology. that the old system may no longer support, including upgrading one's own skills to reach international standards Epower service company has OEM products PLC(Programable Logic Controller) and PAC(Programable Automation Controller) with various standard Feildbus licenses including License Motion control, OPC UA, MQTT and Webvisaulization. With the idea that there should be all functions included in a single PLC, PAC without having to purchase additional expansions or licenses at an affordable price as an alternative for automation developers and programmers. And those involved in technology have started studying with a budget that is not very high when compared to prices in the European and Japanese zones. The company team is rushing to prepare programming examples (source). code) clips teaching programming in each language and clips for connecting feild bus with various devices Including controlling multi-axis movement with EtherCAT Motion control to controlling Delta robot, 6 Axis Robot, Scara robot, ECAM, CNC machine, OPC UA, MQTT, you can contact us via Line@epower or facebook: codesys PLC&PAC where interested parties can come and exchange knowledge.
