Virtual PLC for all platforms.

logiccloud Control is a scalable, virtual controller that allows you to easily implement the control tasks of a classic, hardware-bound PLC together with the challenges of the Internet of Things.

On the Edge

logiccloud Control is a virtual controller with all the functions of a hardware-bound PLC.

The control of machines and systems must function reliably. logiccloud Control is a virtual control that runs on any hardware locally on the machine and does not require an internet connection for operation. However, if an internet connection is available, updates can be installed and logiccloud Control can be monitored.

logiccloud Control has a very small footprint and is optimised for use directly on edge controllers, gateways and routers. A very efficient use of the existing hardware is guaranteed and cycle times of less than 5ms can be achieved.

With logiccloud HMI for operation and influxdb with Grafana for storage and evaluation of historical data, logiccloud Control becomes a complete automation solution.

Sensors and actuators are connected via interfaces such as OPC UA, IO-Link, Single Pair Ethernet (SPE), Modbus and many more. Interfaces such as MQTT with Sparkplug B, OPC Pub/Sub, RabbitMQ and Kafka are available for communication with Industry 4.0 applications.

Advantages of logiccloud Edge

  • logiccloud Control as a Docker container
  • Program changes with logiccloud Engineering
  • Optional: logiccloud HMI
  • Communication secured via certificates
  • Licensing per container and number of inputs/outputs

logiccloud Control has a very small footprint and is optimised for use directly on edge controllers, gateways, routers and in data centres and cloud environments. The available hardware resources can be individually assigned to logiccloud Control, depending on the task. A very efficient use of the available hardware is guaranteed and cycle times of less than 10ms can be achieved.

Runs on all platforms

logiccloud Control can be extended via apps and adapted to the respective use case. A variety of interfaces (NodeRed, influxdb, Grafana, etc.) are already available, and custom apps can be integrated into logiccloud via an API.

Programming completely in the browser in IEC 61 131-3

A very important feature of logiccloud Control is the Communication Engine, which manages the data exchange with both the field devices and the higher-level systems. Changes to the communication do not automatically lead to adjustments to the PLC program. Data exchange with other systems takes place with interfaces such as OPC Pub/Sub, OPC UA, MQTT, MQTT with Sparkplug B, RabbitMQ and Kafka. MQTT, OPC UA, Modbus, IO-Link, Single Pair Ethernet and many more are available for controlling the I/O level.

Programming completely in the browser in IEC 61 131-3

Via the logiccloud engineering portal, the programme is created directly in the browser in the cloud. All other tasks such as deployment, debugging, monitoring and the administration of all logiccloud Control instances are also completed with a few mouse clicks in the logiccloud portal. This leads to enormous cost savings during commissioning and subsequent operation of the systems.

Highlights at a glance
