Overview
Engineering software integration
Separate software packages are limited because they lack
consistency and integration. It takes a common work
environment – i.e. an Engineering Framework – to
achieve full integration and consistency of individual
products.
Centralized engineering framework
 A common user interface concept for all automation tasks with
common services
(e.g. configuration, communication, diagnostics)
 Automatic data and project consistency
 Powerful libraries across all
automation objects
