Many customers work with a standard data block in their PLC. It serves as the foundation for data exchange and can be directly processed by their own software.
The benefits are obvious:
standardized data exchange
direct usage without detours
But in reality, challenges arise:
The standard is constantly changed and extended.
Legacy machines in the field may use outdated or no blocks at all.
You cannot always rely on the block being correct.
The solution with machinetalk:
Upload PLC project & DB version
Automatic validation of the data block
Direct optimization suggestions
If no DB exists: automatic generation
The outcome for the customer:
faster signal identification – even for legacy machines
no manual programming or address errors
less effort, higher speed in operations
