Complete Systems

TIA optimizes the entire manufacturing process, leading to increased ROI by:

• Improving engineering efficiency for lower design costs
• Minimizing downtime by applying integrated diagnostic functions
• Boosting production flexibility through the use of integrated communication tools
• Enhancing plant and network security through integrated security functions
• Improving safety with technologies that protect personnel, machinery and the environment
• Optimizing data quality with a single, streamlined database
• Improving access to data for smarter decisions
• Simplifying implementation of automation solutions with global standards
• Improving overall performance through the interoperability of system-tested components

Significant TIA Portal features and benefits that enable you to reduce your engineering time while increasing your level of transparency and diagnostics include:

• Integrated “no-programming” system diagnostics, automatically generated during device configuration
• One common tag database for fewer mistakes
• Ability to create custom libraries to be shared across your corporate servers for easy creation of company standardization for projects
• An overall project management tool that allows for complete system (multiple controllers, HMIs, networks, etc.) to be programmed, monitored, saved and stored all in one software package
• Easy-to-use, intuitive system functions, such as implementation wizards and drag and drop between editors, for fewer clicks and faster engineering
• Additional time-saving functions, such as online/offline comparisons, pictorial system view with online diagnostics, no-PC-required trace functions and the ability to make code modifications while in “run” state without stopping the PLC
