Control technology is crucial for gaining a competitive edge in the process industry. That’s why there’s SIMATIC PCS neo − an innovative ground-breaking process control system by Siemens.
SIMATIC PCS neo is the first web-based process control system that allows engineers and operators to work on a secure and highly intuitive user interface. SIMATIC PCS neo enables multi-user engineering and remote access from any location and offers maximum scalability− from small process modules to world-scale plants. It can be used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, chemicals, food and beverage.
SIMATIC PCS neo creates the ideal conditions for efficiently controlling your global engineering projects and the operation of your plants − no matter the location or what device you are using? With a central, object-oriented data management system, this web-based innovation ensures that all participants always have direct access to consistent, reliable information so they can make the right decisions as quickly as possible. During development, Siemens also focused on usability, as well as on lean, secure and reliable administration.
SIMATIC PCS neo also takes care of cyber security with a holistic security approach based on the Defense-in-Depth concept. With SIMATIC PCS neo, a range of security measures are preconfigured right from the start to ensure plant security, network security and system integrity.
