Programmable Controllers

Allen-Bradley control solutions set the standard - from the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) invented nearly 30 years ago to the more recent technology embodied in the rugged, scalable, highly-functional Programmable Automation Controller (PAC). The reason? You move forward with our control solutions while protecting the control investment you made in the past.

Programmable Automation Controllers

As part of the Rockwell Automation Integrated Architecture, Logix platforms provide a single control architecture for discrete, drives, motion and process control systems. Whether you need a high-performance control system or a small, value-based control system, Logix platforms provide the right control system for your applications.

Along with NetLinx open networks, Kinetix integrated motion and visualization products, Logix platforms provide the maximum in control integration, program re-use, communication flexibility, and overall ease-of-use so you'll spend less on setup, operation, and maintenance.

Allen-Bradley control solutions set the standard - from the invention of the programmable logic controller nearly 30 years ago to today's open and highly integrated control platforms. The reason? Our control solutions move you forward while protecting the control investment you made in the past. Use A.B. Controller Selector to find a platform that fits your requirements today.

You're concerned with solving key manufacturing challenges - lower costs, improved throughput, higher quality and increased flexibility. We offer highly integrated control solutions to assure that your control system will be available to solve those challenges. The benefit to you comes in time savings, cost savings and faster start-ups that result from pre-integrated products designed to work together as well as from services available to you from initial conception to ongoing maintenance.

Integrated Motion Control

Whether you need motion control that is fully integrated with your control and information systems or an easy to use component solution, you've come to the right place. Allen-Bradley leads the way with cost-effective, world-class motion solutions that address your application needs.

If you require a solution that ranges from the shop floor to the top floor, Kinetix™ Integrated Motion is unbeatable. This fully-integrated solution combines architecture, world class Allen-Bradley motion products and motion application expertise that provides everything you need to achieve a competitive edge.

If you're looking for a simple yet powerful motion solution, you can benefit from our motion components that are designed to work in a wide variety of machine architectures. Allen-Bradley Ultra5000 Intelligent Positioning Drive and Ultra3000 Servo Drive with Indexing are designed to provide high performance motion control in a small package. Both are available with a DeviceNet option.

Products are only part of the Rockwell Automation solution. Our commercial engineering team provides design assistance and proof-of-concept evaluations to be sure you're on the right track before starting your application. After your application is up and running, our Global Manufacturing Solutions (GMS) business can work with you throughout the life cycle of your application to provide lower total cost of ownership.

Rockwell Automation has combined the resources of Allen-Bradley and Electro-Craft into one source for a complete motion control solution - Allen-Bradley Motion Control. These products are available from Rockwell Automation as well as authorized Allen-Bradley Distributors. There is no need to replace your Electro-Craft products with any other brand for your motion control requirements - they're all right here.
