Schneider Electric, a French multinational corporation, offers a wide range of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) catering to diverse industrial automation needs. These PLCs, primarily acquired through acquisitions, fall under two main categories: Modicon and Telemecanique (TE).
Modicon PLCs
Modicon PLCs encompass a broad spectrum of series, each with distinct characteristics and applications:
1. Modicon M580 ePAC
A high-end controller family designed for critical applications demanding exceptional reliability and performance. It comprises standard, redundant, and safety variants.
2. Modicon M340 PLC
A versatile PAC suitable for both standalone operation and integration with M580 systems. It excels in industrial process control and demanding automation tasks.
3. Modicon Quantum PLC
Renowned for its robust communication capabilities, diagnostics, and data storage capacity, Quantum PLCs are ideal for complex process control and critical infrastructure systems.
4. Modicon Premium PLC
Leveraging advanced TCP/IP technology, Premium PLCs offer a revolutionary distributed architecture, making them well-suited for large-scale applications.
5. Modicon TSX Micro PLC
Specifically designed for OEMs, Micro PLCs provide a compact, rugged, and scalable solution for machine control applications.
6. Schneider Twido Series PLC
This modular PLC boasts a compact structure, comprehensive functions, and user-friendly programming, making it popular in various industrial automation applications.
7. Zelio Logic Logic Controller
Bridging the gap between PLCs and relays, Zelio Logic offers relay outputs up to 8A and an integrated HMI for programming, debugging, and parameter setting.
Schneider M Series (EcoStruxure Machine Expert)
The Schneider M Series, also known as Modicon M Series, targets the OEM segment with its emphasis on cost-effectiveness and IEC 61131-3 compliance.
1. M258, M251, M241, M238, M218, LMC058, LMC078 PLCs
These PLCs utilize EcoStruxure Machine Expert (formerly SoMachine) software, supporting motion control for LMC058 and LMC078 variants.
2. M221, M100, M200 PLCs
Employing EcoStruxure Machine Expert Basic (formerly SoMachine Basic) software, these PLCs cater specifically to OEM applications.
Additional Notes
SoMachine Motion software, based on CoDeSyS, is dedicated to high-end motion controllers like PacDrive3.
In 2019, Schneider Electric merged SoMachine and SoMachine Motion into EcoStruxure Machine Expert, offering Basic, Standard, and Expert authorization levels.
