The requirements for automation are increasing exponentially, but the tools have hardly changed in 30 years. A new cloud approach now promises to use contextual AI to generate not only control logic but also HMI visualizations almost fully automatically.
At SPS 2025, logiccloud will present the new version of its software-defined automation platform. In addition to numerous new features and improvements, one highlight takes center stage: an AI assistant revolutionizes the development of automation apps and shows how we will create automation solutions in the future.

Traditionally, the hardware PLC has been the heart of every machine. Individual cells and machine modules are then connected via additional PLCs to form modular production lines—so in large plants, dozens or even hundreds of controllers are often in use.

Many companies in the mechanical and plant engineering sector deliberately avoid public cloud solutions - whether for security reasons, due to compliance requirements or because of the US CLOUD Act, which allows authorities to access data from US hosts outside the USA.
Digitalization in industrial automation requires flexible, reliable and hardware-independent software solutions. However, when it comes to edge controllers in particular, many users face a problem: different hardware manufacturers rely on different deployment technologies such as Docker, Podman or Snap. This complicates the selection, installation and management of software - and slows down innovation processes.
The energy transition is changing corporate energy systems: PV systems, e-charging stations, storage systems and heat pumps need to be controlled efficiently. Fluctuations and peak loads make management difficult. Virtual control via the cloud demonstrates a flexible solution at a planning office.
logiccloud AG is strengthening its international market presence with a forward-looking partnership in the Chinese province of Henan. Together with ASC Ausbildung & Service GmbH and the Edunet World Association e.V., logiccloud signed a cooperation agreement on May 8, 2025, which aims to train up to 10,000 digital specialists per year - directly on logiccloud's cloud-based automation platform.
Under the motto "Revolutionize your automation", logiccloud will be presenting the latest version of its innovative automation platform at SPS 2024 from 12-14.11.2024 in Nuremberg.
