INCOSOL ADS
[Beckhoff TwinCAT®]

OPC server and I/O Driver

Our high performance communication solution with special features for the Beckhoff TwinCAT® PLC system.

The combined application as an I/O communication driver and OPC server and also the average data transfer rate and updating time in the range of milliseconds, even with large datasets (> 100 KB), make the INCOSOL ADS. stand out.

In addition, there is also an abundance of interesting and high performing features, which not only provide a quicker and more convenient application on a daily basis, but also keep the costs to a minimum: iFIX licensing costs, for example.

This makes the ADS from the INCOSOL product portfolio one of the highest performing communication drivers for the Beckhoff TwinCAT® PLC system.
