Programming device SIMATIC Field PG

Your new semi ruggedized high-performance notebook

With the SIMATIC Field PG, you are ideally equipped for mobile use in harsh environments: Shocks and vibrations, as well as electromagnetic interference in machine-oriented industrial environments, do not affect your work. Communication with machines and plants is easy via PROFIBUS and PROFINET as well as via typical serial connections. SIMATIC memory cards can be deleted and programmed directly in the device. Thanks to pre-installed engineering software, you are immediately ready for fast and efficient configuration, commissioning, maintenance and servicing.

Here you can configure your SIMATIC Field PG directly

SIMATIC Field PG in operation

SIMATIC Field PG in a typical service mission

For mobile operations in industrial plants, the SIMATIC Field PG offers both rugged hardware and pre-installed TIA Portal engineering software for fast and efficient configuring, commissioning, service and maintenance.

Thanks to the semi-ruggedized design, the SIMATIC Field PG is especially suitable for use in harsh industrial environments: From engineering of a plant in an office-like environment to testing and servicing close to a machine, all the way to maintenance jobs on the factory floor, everything is possible.

SIMATIC Field PG in the office
8:30 am – preparations for the project: Early in the morning Michael is preparing his service assignment: in the office he connects his SIMATIC Field PG to several monitors. With TIA Portal program changes, control system and machines can be simulated and set up in a virtual environment beforehand. This can help to identify problems early and reduce service times.
SIMATIC Field PG on the way
10:45 am – on the way for a mission: Let’s go: Thanks to the practical backpack the SIMATIC Field PG is perfectly prepared. Its size allows the transportation of several tools and connection cables, so that they are protected against a harsh environment.
SIMATIC Field PG in operation
10:55 am – arrival at site: The service assignment begins with the arrival at the facility or machine. Thanks to the latest hardware, integrated automation interface and pre-installed software Michael is well equipped with the SIMATIC Field PG.
SIMATIC Field PG in operation
11:00 am – ready-to-run: SIMATIC Field PG is immediately ready-to-run. Due to the pre-installed and system-tested engineering software TIA Portal, SIMATIC Field PG allows a quick and efficient commissioning, service and maintenance.
SIMATIC Field PG in operation
12.30 pm - flexible connection to automation: Michael connects directly to the machine via PROFINET interfaces. Alternatively, also WLAN, Bluetooth and PROFIBUS interfaces are available. Direct programming of SIMATIC memory cards is also possible.
SIMATIC Field PG in operation
03.40 pm – mobile and robust: The long battery life allows him to work in the plant without the necessity of a power outlet. The lightweight magnesium casing of SIMATIC Field PG is so solid that it withstands shocks, vibrations and electromagnetic radiation near machines.
SIMATIC Field PG in operation
04:45 pm – service assignment finished: Rubber-buffered corners protect SIMATIC Field PG during transportation. Thanks to the stable carrying handle it fits perfectly for mobile use like service assignments – and now have a nice evening. Thank you, Michael!
