Beckhoff supplies the right Industrial PC for every application. The high-quality components, based on open standards, and the individual construction of the housings mean that the Industrial PCs are ideally equipped for all control requirements. Embedded PCs make modular IPC technology available in miniature format for DIN rail mounting. The fact that Beckhoff develops motherboards in-house enables the company to respond quickly to new technologies on the PC market and to customer-specific requirements.

The Windows Control and Automation Technology
The Beckhoff TwinCAT software system turns almost any compatible PC into a real-time controller with a multi-PLC system, NC axis control, programming environment and operating station. TwinCAT replaces conventional PLC and NC/CNC controllers as well as operating devices with:
open, compatible PC hardware
embedded IEC 61131-3 software PLC, software NC and software CNC in Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista, Windows 7, NT/ XP Embedded, CE
programming and run-time systems optionally together on one PC or separated
connection to all common fieldbuses
PC interfaces support
data communication with user interfaces and other programs by means of open Microsoft standards (OPC, OCX, DLL, etc.)
