Product ranges that can be used as separate components or integrated into a complete and mutually compatible control system available for all sectors. Our New Automation Technology stands for universal and industry-independent control and automation solutions that are used worldwide. Since Beckhoff's foundation in 1980, the development of innovative products and solutions on the basis of PC-based control technology has been the foundation of the company's continued success. We recognized many standards in automation technology that are taken for granted today at an early stage and successfully introduced to the market as innovations. Beckhoff's philosophy of PC-based control as well as the invention of the Lightbus system and TwinCAT automation software are milestones in automation technology and have proven themselves as powerful alternatives to traditional control technology. EtherCAT, the real-time Ethernet solution, provides a powerful and future-orientated technology for a new generation of control concepts.
