System Configuration Drawings
Our system-level configuration drawings provide commonly-used best practices on how to build your architecture. The drawings help you determine what size system you need to build and what products would be most effective.
Integrated Architecture Builder
Use Integrated Architecture Builder (IAB) to layout and validate control systems, and generate proposals and BOMs that provide the details of your control system. The tool provides advanced selection assistance and a graphical interface for designing systems. Those systems can include products communicating over networks like Ethernet/IP and subsystems that have components sharing a common backplane like PLCs. You can add I/O, networks, drives, on-machine cabling and wiring, motion control, and other devices to your system.
Download Integrated Architecture Builder from the Product Selection Toolbox executable file or the mobile app.
Why Use Integrated Architecture Builder
You can use IAB to configure your Logix-based automation systems (which includes the PlantPAx process automation system), select hardware, and generate bills of material. IAB can be used on applications that include controllers, I/O, networks, drives, cabling and wiring, motion control, and other devices.
